Software Engineering is a branch of Computer Science that evolved as a result of urgent need to deal with decades of software crisis, characterized by low theoretical knowledge and practice of the construction of error-free and efficient software. The introduction of well-organized scientific, engineering and management strategies in the process of software development no doubt led to major breakthroughs, and solutions to software failures. One of the obvious game-changer in this regard is the evolution of Software Development Life Cycle, also known as Software Process Model for driving the different phases of software construction. A sound understanding of the process model is therefore inevitable, not just for software developers, but also to users and researchers. Such a theoretical cum practical understanding will enhance decisions on which process model is best for a particular job or perspective. This invariably, contributes immensely to the probability of success or failure of the project in question. Thus, the necessity for this research. This work presents an unambiguous expository of selected software development model variants. A total of four process model variants were studied, in a theoretical, visual and analytical manner. The variants were analyzed using strength versus weakness (SVW) tabular scenario. This work was concluded by presenting guides towards choice of these models. This research is expected to be a useful reference to software practitioners and researchers.

<span>There are various root causes of software failures. Few years ago, software used to fail mainly due to functionality related bugs. That used to happen due to requirement misunderstanding, code issues and lack of functional testing. A lot of work has been done in past on this and software engineering has matured over time, due to which software’s hardly fail due to functionality related bugs. To understand the most recent failures, we had to understand the recent software development methodologies and technologies. In this paper we have discussed background of technologies and testing progression over time. A survey of more than 50 senior IT professionals was done to understand root cause of their software project failures. It was found that most of the softwares fail due to lack of testing of non-functional parameters these days. A lot of research was also done to find most recent and most severe software failures. Our study reveals that main reason of software failures these days is lack of testing of non-functional requirements. Security and Performance parameters mainly constitute non-functional requirements of software. It has become more challenging these days due to lots of development in the field of new technologies like Internet of things (IoT), Cloud of things (CoT), Artificial Intelligence, Machine learning, robotics and excessive use of mobile and technology in everything by masses. Finally, we proposed a software development model called as T-model to ensure breadth and depth of software is considered while designing and testing of software. </span>

In the world of health, many health terms are difficult to understand. The health encyclopedia book is one of the media that presents an explanation of these terms. But in its use, the printed book is less effective and efficient because of limited space and time. So we need a media that explains health terms that are mobile so that they can be used whenever and wherever. This application was designed and implemented for the Android operating system. The system created aims to display definitions and images of health terms. The research method used is the research and development method. While for the development of software systems using the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) waterfall software development model. Based on the results of the response to application users conducted with a questionnaire resulting in a value of 88.9% stated very well.

The Software Engineering can be considered a new area. During its recent history, many techniques applied for managing and producing software have been taken from Industrial Engineering. It is known that issues related to achieve the deadline, cost and functionalities are being discussed and are still a challenge for software development. This paper aims to propose a software development process model based on concepts of Industrial Engineering. Besides, the paper discusses some standards and models from Software Engineering that helped in the development of the model proposed. The result of this work is the model itself, together with some future works proposed to continue the research.

This article discussed the problem that is commonly faced by project managers in selecting an appropriate software development model. A good number of models and the ongoing debate between the advocates of agile and traditional models make the selection of a right one uneasy and complicated. The purpose of this study is to propose a new alternative view in selecting development models from the perspective of degree of flexibility in different project situations. The results of a survey conducted to 74 project managers and software developers indicate that there are three naturally occurring development model groups, including heavyweight (Waterfall and V models), middleweight (Incremental and Spiral models), and lightweight (Extreme Programming and SCRUM). A canonical function is identified to help project managers select an appropriate software development model for each potential or planned project.

Selection And Ranking

The study of software engineering professional practices includes the use of the formal methodology in a software development. Identifying the appropriate methodology will not only reduce the failure of software but will also help to deliver the software in accordance with the predetermined budget and schedule. In literature, few works have been developed a tool for prediction of the most appropriate methodology for the specific software project. In this paper, a method for selecting an appropriate software development life cycle (SDLC) model based on a ranking manner from the highest to the lowest scoring is presented. The selection and ranking of appropriate SDLC elaborate the related SDLC’s critical factors, these factors are given different weights according to the SDLC, then these weights are used by the proposed mathematical method. The proposed approach has been extensively experimented on a dataset by software practitioners who are working in the software industry. Experimental results show that, the proposed method represents an applicable tool in predicting and ranking suitable SDLC models on various types of projects, such as: life-critical systems, commercial uses systems, and entertainment applications.

Software development methodologies and knowledge management (KM) are a dynamic part of core challenge of the organization in order to deliver on time with less effort and efficient software product. Scrum model is widely known as one of the best common software development methodologies and this paper has conducted a survey on how to transfer the knowledge between team members. Moreover, the Scrum model relies on daily stand-up meeting or daily scrum meeting for capture and share knowledge. Thus, this paper investigates Scrum model and knowledge management process on how to improve the proficiency of knowledge sharing among the software practitioners with less time and effort. It also proposes a conceptual framework where it stores and retrieves the tacit knowledge via Scrum model for software product management. This proposed conceptual framework is used to store and retrieve the tacit knowledge via Scrum process for software product management to save a time consuming and effort.
