  2. What is SW Process? • When building a Product it’s important to go through a series of predictable steps, road map, that help you create a timely, and high-quality result. • The ROAD MAP that you follow is the SW process. • Process depends on the SW you are building • Web design vs. telephone switch!!

  3. Software Process • Process defines who is doing: • – What?, • – When and how? • – To reach a goal • Process defines tasks and activities within a schedule • Results • – Programs • – Documents • – And data • Software process is a roadmap for high quality software

  4. Generic Framework activities • Communication • Get to know your Customer and their processes • Identify stakeholders • Requirement elicitation

  5. Generic Framework activities • Planning • Plan the work • Identify resources • Identify tasks • Set the schedule

  6. Generic Framework activities • Modeling • Analysis of requirements • Design • Blue print for customer and developers communications

  7. Generic Framework activities • Construction • Code generation • Testing

  8. Generic View of SE • SW Engineering is the: • Analysis, • Design, • Construction, • Verification and. • Management of Software.

  9. SW Process Models • Guides the SW team thought a set of framework activities (process flow) • Linear • Incremental • evolutionary • It is a set of activities required to • Define, design, implement, test and maintain a software product. • A SW process model is chosen based on the nature of the project. • Each process model prescribes a workflow for SE activities

  10. Software Engineering: A Practitioner’s Approach, 6/eChapter 3Prescriptive Process Models

  11. SW Process Models • Prescriptive process models advocate an orderly approach to software engineering. • It is a set of activities required to: • Define, design, implement, test and maintain a software product. • A SW process model is chosen based on the nature of the project.

  12. SW Process Model Phases • All models have phases and each phase has 3 components: • Set of activities, this is what you do. • Set of deliverables, this is what you produce. • Quality control measures, this is what you use to evaluate the deliverables. • The activities defines the process Framework, the generic set encompasses: • Communication, planning, modeling, construction, and deployment

  13. The Waterfall Model This Model suggests a systematic, sequential approach to SW development that begins at the system level and progresses through analysis, design, code and testing.

  14. Advantages Easy Structured Provide a template into which methods for analysis, design, code, testing and maintenance can be placed. Disadvantages Sequential, does not reflect reality Does not allow for feedback Does not produce a prototype User must wait until the end to see the final program. Waterfall Model

  15. When to use the Waterfall Model • Simple Projects • Limited amount of time • Requirements are well understood • We can use it for our Class Project.

  16. Incremental Models • Goal to provide quick basic functionality to the users • Process is not linear • Requirements are well defined • Software is completed in an increments fashion • Will Study 2 models: • Incremental Model • RAD

  17. Incremental Model • It combines characteristics of the waterfall model and the iterative nature of the prototyping model. • 1st build is usually the CORE product • Each increment “deliverable” may add a new functionality. • This is repeated until the product is complete

  18. The Incremental Model • Communication • Planning • Modeling • Construction • Deployment

  19. When to Use the Incremental Model • When staffing is not available by deadline. • When the software can be broken into increments and each increment represent a solution

  20. The Rapid Application Development RAD Model • Builds on the Incremental model with emphases on short development cycle. • In other words high speed waterfall model • Components are build using this model as a fully functional units in a relatively short time • It assumes that the system can be modularized • RAD will fail if you don’t have strong and skillful teams • High performance might be an issue

  21. The RAD Model

  22. Evolutionary Process Models • Core requirements are well understood but additional requirements are evolving and changing fast • Time-to-Market • Iterative – software gets more complex with each iteration • Prototype • Spiral • Concurrent

  23. Evolutionary SW Process Models • Advantages • Do not require full knowledge of the requirements • Iterative • Divide project into builds • Allows feedback, show user something sooner • Develop more complex systems

  24. Prototyping Model • Start with what is known about requirements. • Do a quick design. • Build the prototype by focusing on what will be seen by the user. • Use the prototype to show the user and help refining requirements.

  25. Evolutionary Models: Prototyping Quick plan communication Modeling Quick design Deployment delivery & feedback Construction of prototype

  26. When to Use Prototype Model • When the customer define general objectives for the SW but does NOT identify details about INPUT, OUTPUT, or processing requirements. • The developer is unsure of the efficiency of an algorithm, human machine interaction, etc.

  27. Advantages Prototype is served as the machinery for identifying requirements. Is developed very quick. Disadvantages Customer might think that the prototype is the final product and forget lack of quality i.e PERFORMANCE, RELIABILITY. Prototype Model

  28. Spiral Model • Iterative (like Prototype) and controlled (like waterfall) model. • Software is developed using evolutionary releases • Software complexity increase with each release

  29. Spiral Model • Consist of 6 task regions. • Customer communication - the goal is to establish good communication between customer and developer. • Planning - produce/adjust project plan. • Risk analysis - assess management and technical risks. • Engineering - build one or more representations of the application. • Construction and release - - to construct, test, install and support the application. • Customer evaluation – get customer feedback.

  30. Evolutionary Models: The Spiral

  31. When to Use the Spiral Model • Very large projects. • When technical skills must be evaluated at each step.

  32. Component based development • The process to apply when reuse is a development objective • Evolutionary • COTS are used to build software • Steps: • Identify candidate components • Design each using and model or OO classes • Component integration • Architecture • Testing

  33. CBD • component-based development (CBD) model incorporates many of the iterative characteristics of the spiral model. • The main difference is that in CBD the emphasis is on composing solutions from prepackaged software components or classes

  34. Process Models • AOSD—provides a process and methodological approach for defining, specifying, designing, and constructing aspects

  35. Unified Process • a “use-case driven, architecture-centric, iterative and incremental” software process closely aligned with the Unified Modeling Language (UML) • Tools are used to describe customer views (use cases) • Used mainly for OO based methodologies • Runs in phases

  36. The Unified Process (UP) inception Phase 1 Communication + Planning Phase 2 Planning + Modeling elaboration inception Phase 3 Coding, unit test & integrate Components result Phase 4 Deployment
