SAD1-Assignment 5

Consider your school, how do you know that the life cycle was developed specifically for the university. How do we know it meets our needs?

As a student of University of Southeastern Philippines it is my opportunity to know the life cycle developed of the university, what are the different phases and models them used, how the development life cycle gives procedure to the university.
First, let’s define System Development System Life Cycle. According to my research, Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a conceptual model used in project management that describes the stages involved in an information system development project from an initial feasibility study through maintenance of the completed application. Various SDLC methodologies have been developed to guide the processes involved including the waterfall model (the original SDLC method), rapid application development (RAD), joint application development (JAD), the fountain model and the spiral model. Mostly, several models are combined into some sort of hybrid methodology. Documentation is crucial regardless of the type of model chosen or devised for any application, and is usually done in parallel with the development process. Some methods work better for specific types of projects, but in the final analysis, the most important factor for the success of a project may be how closely particular plan was followed. Processes of creating or altering systems, and the models and methodologies that people use to develop these systems. In software engineering the SDLC concept underpins many kinds of software development methodologies. These methodologies form the framework for planning and controlling the creation of an information system.

These are the System Development Life Cycle steps:

• Define
Define or classify first the problem, so that you could describe the nature or fundamental qualities of the project. You could easily precise the problem and determine the limitation.

• Design

In designing the project, it is planning or drawing the output that lays the basis for the making of every object or system. Systems design is most effective when more than one solution can be proposed. The plans for the care and feeding of a new system are as important as the problems they solve.

• Demonstrate
Demonstrate the project is very important task, it shows clearly and deliberately illustration with clear explanation and visual presentation showing how something works some main information.

• Develop
To generates the main requirements of the project and allow for the creation, development and running of application programs. Through a series of progressive changes they could provide a outstanding system with a good and high quality.

Deliver
In this step, the proper place of the project transport into the expected output of the system and it would carry out to user the important thing to do in the using the system.

We could know the phases if the steps you select are compatible to your system or project development, the university would easily generate the steps and create system development life cycle that would compatible. The problem would easily to resolve if you select a phase that accurate and clear to solve the system.
