Question #1: Spiral Model
Question #1: Spiral Model
Spiral Model:
The spiral model blends the concept of iterative growth with the waterfall model's systematic,
controllable aspects. This Spiral model is a combination of the iterative process development
model with the sequential linear development model i.e. the waterfall model with a very high-
risk analysis focus. It allows for incremental product launches or incremental improvements with
any iteration around the spiral.
Question #2
(a)
in the security case all the accounts of the customers are managed and the privicy is properly ensured ,the
govering body has proper access and control over the system ,and is ensuring proper integrity to the
cusmer
spoofing of the user is done to enter in the system database then manipulating all the information and the
privacy of the system is compromised.
the integrity of the system is destroyed and high chances of misusing the info in other site and stealing of
the money is done.
Question #2
(b)
Intangibility basically means things which cannot be touched. Same is in the case of Software systems.
This intangible nature of the software systems makes it hard for us to check its current status of progress,
the various other requirements, thus causing problems in planning, scheduling, budgeting etc. Testing of
all the phases sometimes becomes difficult because of all this. Therefore, one can say, the intangibility of
software systems possesses special problems for software project management.
The work of the managers and the codes is a way too different. The programmers may be very good at
writing various codes but software managers require very good managerial skills as they have to do a lot
of jobs like scheduling, assigning and identifying various resources, identifying various risks etc. These
are the things in which the coder lacks. Although they have some knowledge regarding that but to be a
successful software manager, one needs to have great hands on all these skills.
Question 3
In software management we will face lot of risks. A risk is a unwanted problem that we face in
our software project.
Risks are classified into 3 types
1. project risks
2. product risks
3. business risks
project risks
Risks related to budget, schedule, resources and customer related risks is called project risks.
For example: In a project if we allot 1 year but it takes more time than required is called project
risks.
For example: if we face many errors and difficult to debug it is called product risks.
Business risks
This type of risks contain risks of building an excellent product that no one need, losing
budgetary or personnel commitments, etc.
