DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE (SDLC)
EXAM |GUARANTEED PASS
Project - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ is a planned undertaking, with a
beginning and end that produces a well-defined result or product.
Information system development project - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔
a planned undertaking that produces a new information system
Predictive approach to the SDLC - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔
assumes that the development project can be planned and organized and
that the new information system can be developed according to the plan
Useful for building systems that are well understood and defined.
Company may want to convert its old networked client/server system to
a newer Web-based system that includes a smartphone app. In this type
of project, the staff already understands the requirements very well, and
no new processes need to be added
Traditional (70s-90s)
, Adaptive approach to the SDLC - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ is used
when the system's requirements and/or the users' needs aren't well
understood. In this situation, the project can't be planned completely.
Some system requirements may need to be determined after preliminary
development work.
(late 90s-today)
Project initiation (predictive) - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ In
predictive approaches, there is a group of activities that identifies the
problem and secures approval to develop a new system
Project planning (predictive) - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ In
predictive approaches, there is a group of activities that identifies the
problem and secures approval to develop a new system
Map out the project's overall structure
Analysis (predictive) - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ focuses on
discovering and understanding the details of the problem or need. The
intent here is to figure out exactly what the system must do to support
the business processes
