This set of pages presents a collection of documents to be produced during a software development effort. While it was designed with object-oriented systems in mind, the document types presented here can be used on any large scale software project to ensure that requirements are met and that the techniques developed, and lessons learned, can be applied to user documentation and training, system maintenance and future development.
The following material is provided:
Definitions of each stage in the development process. | |
Inputs and outputs of each stage. | |
Contents outline for documentation. | |
Dependencies and reuse of earlier products of the development life cycle in latter stages of the development life cycle. | |
The context and relationships of the development effort with other departments. | |
Approach to and need for paralleling efforts within the development organization as well as other departments. |
