Managing the Software Development Life Cycle You consider software bugs, how to prioritize them in the overall project cycle, and what to do when there may not be enough time to fix all the bugs prior to release. This course presents an overview of the life cycle of a software product, from inception to rollout, as a framework for a practical approach to successful management of a software project through all its phases. You learn about effective documentation of all life cycle phases, including design, implementation, quality assurance, and project release. www.unex.berkeley.edu /cat/course181.html   (249 words)

ipedia.com: Agile software development Article One way in which agile software development is generally distinguished from "heavier", more process-centric methodologies, for example the waterfall model, is by its emphasis on values and principles, rather than on processes. Typical cycles are one week or one month, and at the end of each cycle they reevaluate the project priorities - a feature it shares with iterative development methodologies, and most modern theories of project management. Deciding when to use agile software development is also dependant on the values and principles that a developer wishes to be reflected in their work. www.ipedia.com /agile_software_development.html   (2657 words)

Agile Software Development Each iteration is like a miniature software project of its own, and includes all the tasks necessary to release the mini-increment of new functionality: planning, requirements analysis, design, coding, testing, and documentation. Agile software development is a conceptual framework for undertaking software engineering projects. There are a number of agile software development methodologies e.g. www.mariosalexandrou.com /methodologies/agile_software_development.asp   (228 words)

Buggin' My Life Away : Anatomy of a Software Bug To give you a sense of the time frame, this fix was ported from Win Word to Mac Word during the Office 2001 development cycle, and was back-ported into Word 98 for a service release that was done not too long after that. The first is that I can’t fix what I can’t see, and, where software bugs are concerned, “seeing” means being able to watch the program execute, via some debugging tool, at the key point in the execution of the code where the problem occurs. The developer’s original fix was to add some code, in the case where Word hit its internal open file limit, that would basically remove everything from the undo document (what we refer to as “nuking the undo stack”). blogs.msdn.com /rick_schaut/archive/2004/05/19/135315.aspx   (8337 words)

Encyclopedia: Software maintenance Software maintenance is one of the activities in software engineering, and is the process of enhancing and optimizing deployed software (software release), as well as remedying defects. Software just like most other products, is typically released with a known set of defects and deficiencies. Software maintenance is also one of the phases in the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC), as it applies to software development. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Software-maintenance   (1041 words)

Release Management - Wikibooks, collection of open-content textbooks Release Management refers to management of the release cycle within a software project, which itself is when the software engineers provide a uniquely identified set of files to others for use. Well run release management is similar to other aspects of the software development project in that it is highly dependent upon the completion of scheduled tasks. For example, even though the release manager may capture and store data like "Number of binary files included in the build", it must be considereed whether the data is meaningful. en.wikibooks.org /wiki/Release_Management   (1196 words)

Outsourcing - Coping with Increased Development Cycles: ASPs Assume Your Upgrading Headaches Because of the feedback that salesforce.com gets from clients, the new additions in each release cycle are usually better than what a company could expect from a new release of an off-the-shelf software package, Fulbright maintains. And when staging isn’t a part of the increased development cycle, users can potentially feel a lot of pain with each new release or upgrade. The increased development cycles that accompany most outsourced applications mean fewer headaches for the application user when it’s time to upgrade or tweak an application. www.outsourcing-journal.com /issues/sep2001/asp.html   (1196 words)

Release schedules and development cycles. www.kdedevelopers.org All we need is developers developing in a lot smaller coding cycles which means that the software is stable at all times, just misses features that might impede it from an 1.0 release. The simple thing is that I intend to tell nothing new here; there are millions of developers already using a development cycle which make the whole point of release schedule quite simple and obsolete. A release schedule is based on development cycle. www.kdedevelopers.org /node/view/479   (1196 words)

ITIL Release Management Release Management also works with Configuration Management to ensure that the CMDB is kept up to date and that all new software releases are stored in the Definitive Software Library (DSL). Prior to planning a release, information must be gathered about various aspects of the release, such as product life cycle, description of relevant IT service and service levels, authorization for relative RFCs, etc. Planning the release involves coordination, scheduling, drawing up a communication plan, defining roles and responsibilities, constructing back-out and quality plans, and more. Change Management is focused on the coordination and planning of changes while Release Management is focused on the actual implementation of those changes. www.chorussystems.com /resources/release.html   (385 words)

DW Project Management: Using Agile Software Development Frameworks for Data Mart Development Agile development is a software development approach that "cycles" through the development phases, from gathering requirements to delivering functionality into a working release. Each cycle results in a test release, and it is very much worth the effort of moving the developed results of each cycle into a separate test environment even for the earliest development cycles.
