Software development involves planning, implementing, testing, and maintaining software. The main stages are gathering requirements, designing and coding the software, testing it, and deploying it to users. Once deployed, software often requires maintenance to fix bugs and add new features. Effective development requires clearly defining requirements, managing scope, and providing user training and support during and after deployment.

Software Engineering in a Quick and Easy way - v1.pdfKAJAL MANDAL
The Most Common must know Software Development life cycle Models. As we discussed in our earlier article on Software Engineering, we have learned about the aspects of Software Engineering and the qualities that it should possess. Now let us move ahead and learn about the models of the software development life cycle. What is a software development life cycle? A software development life cycle, sometimes also called the SDLC life cycle, represents and describes the various activities that are to be performed to build a software product. These activities are grouped into several phases and sequentially linked in order. Hence we can also say, that a software development life cycle is a structured list of activities that are followed to develop software, from the inception to the delivery of the final product. During any phase of the life cycle of development, one or more activities might have to be carried out to start or finish that phase. For example, in the inception phase of actual coding, it is expected that the architectural designing phase is completed. Why software development life cycle model is required? In every model of SDLC, every phase may have its own child life cycle, for every team of a specific skill set. So in an environment of complicated projects and a variety of skill-based teams, it is vital to follow a pre-defined structured process. This creates discipline and maintains decorum in the working culture. All team members are interdependent. Failure of any one team will affect the deliverables of other teams. And all together it might lead to project failures. SDLC also defines entry and exit criteria for every phase. For example, say, if a team member starts coding, assuming that pro-activeness will help finish the project much earlier. This would be the perfect recipe for disaster and project failure. Why? Because, after putting down a month of effort they might realize that the project needs a roving vehicle on Mars to collect data. Unfortunately, the team doesn’t have that with them. So they can not proceed further. That means a feasibility study was not performed before the team started working on deliverables. Which in technical terms, is a breach of SDLC, and hence the loss of effort, or project failure. The team should have done a feasibility study before jumping straight into deliverables. Then they would have realized that the project is not doable, many days in advance. As so, they could have saved some unnecessary effort. Hence it is strongly suggested to follow a methodology, or process while working on complex and team-based projects. It becomes easier for the entire team to work together, support each other, manage, and track the progress of the development. Regardless of the model you follow, SDLC models always ensure smooth delivery, reporting, and chaos-free delivery of the project. Classic Waterfall Model. Prototyping Model. Iterative Waterfall Model. Rapid Action Development. Spiral Model.
The ultimate guide to release management processEnov8
If your organisation is vested in developing applications and updating software features, you’re already familiar with the concept of release management. And you understand the importance of an efficient release management process. Release management is the bridge that connects all the stages encompassing a software release from codebase creation, functionality testing to deployment.
Comprehensive Guide on Software Development Process.pdfSmith Daniel
This is a comprehensive guide to the software development process. You’ll learn how to choose a technology stack, the best development models, and more.
The software development cycle is a structured process that guides the creation of software applications from conception to deployment. Understanding the phases of this cycle is crucial for developers to effectively manage projects and deliver high-quality software solutions.
The first phase of the software development cycle is requirement analysis, where developers gather and analyze the needs and expectations of stakeholders. This phase lays the foundation for the project by defining goals, objectives, and project scope.
Next comes the planning phase, where developers create a strategic plan for the project, outlining project milestones, allocating resources, and establishing timelines. Clear goals and objectives are set to ensure the project stays on track and within budget.
Once the planning phase is complete, developers move on to the design phase, where they create the blueprint for the software solution. Designers and developers work together to create wireframes, mockups, and prototypes that illustrate the functionality and layout of the final product.
With the design in place, developers begin the development phase, where they write code and build features based on the design specifications. This is where the software starts to come to life, as developers transform design concepts into functional software solutions.
Once development is complete, the software undergoes rigorous testing to identify and fix any bugs or issues. This testing phase ensures that the software meets quality standards and performs as expected before deployment.
After testing, the software is deployed to production, where it becomes available to users. During deployment, developers configure servers, set up databases, and prepare the environment for launch to ensure a smooth transition to the new software solution.
Even after deployment, the software development cycle continues with ongoing maintenance and support. Developers address bugs and issues, release updates and patches, and provide technical support to users to ensure that the software remains functional, secure, and up-to-date.
By understanding and mastering the phases of the software development cycle, developers can effectively manage projects, deliver high-quality software solutions, and conquer the code.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Software Development Tips
1. Software Development Overview Processes & Tips:
Software development is the process of producing or creating a software. There
could be several aims of developing a piece of software:
Usually the aim is to satisfy the specific needs of a client.
Secondly, to meet the needs of the potential users.
For personal use to meet the need of a scientist.
Mainly, it refers to the activities or processes of writing and maintaining the
source code. Broadly, it includes the involvement of the conception of the desired
software and the manifestation of the product. Software development may
include research, new development, modification, reuse, re-engineering,
maintenance, or any other activities that result in software products. Usually, it
involves the inputs of the several departments like marketing, research and
development, engineering and general management.
Most methodologies share some combination of the following stages of software
development:
Market research
Gathering requirements for the proposed business solution
Analyzing the problem
Devising a plan or design for the software-based solution
Implementation (coding) of the software
Testing the software
Development
Maintenance and bug fixing
These stages are often referred to collectively as the software development
lifecycle, or SDLC. Different approaches to software development may carry out
these stages in different orders, or devote more or less time to different stages.
The level of detail of the documentation produced at each stage of software
development may also vary. These stages may also be carried out in turn (a
“waterfall” based approach), or they may be repeated over various cycles or
2. iterations (a more "extreme" approach). The more extreme approach usually
involves less time spent on planning and documentation, and more time spent on
coding and development of automated tests. More “extreme” approaches also
promote continuous testing throughout the development lifecycle, as well as
having a working (or bug-free) product at all times. More structured or
“waterfall” based approaches attempt to assess the majority of risks and develop
a detailed plan for the software before implementation (coding) begins, and avoid
significant design changes and re-coding in later stages of the software
development lifecycle.
Planning
The important task in creating a software product is extracting the requirements
or requirements analysis.Customers typically have an abstract idea of what they
want as an end result, but not what software should do. Incomplete, ambiguous,
or even contradictory requirements are recognized by skilled and experienced
software engineers at this point. Frequently demonstrating live code may help
reduce the risk that the requirements are incorrect.
Once the general requirements are gathered from the client, an analysis of the
scope of the development should be determined and clearly stated. This is often
called a scope document.
Certain functionality may be out of scope of the project as a function of cost or as
a result of unclear requirements at the start of development. If the development
is done externally, this document can be considered a legal document so that if
there are ever disputes, any ambiguity of what was promised to the client can be
clarified.
Implementation, testing and documenting:
Implementation is the part of the process where software engineers actually
program the code for the project.
Software testing is an integral and important part of the software development
process. This part of the process ensures that defects are recognized as early as
possible.
3. Documenting the internal design of software for the purpose of future
maintenance and enhancement is done throughout development. This may also
include the authoring of an API, be it external or internal.
Deployment and maintenance:
Deployment starts after the code is appropriately tested, is approved for release
and sold or otherwise distributed into a production environment.
Software Training and Support is important and a lot of developers fail to realize
that. It would not matter how much time and planning a development team puts
into creating software if nobody in an organization ends up using it. People are
often resistant to change and avoid venturing into an unfamiliar area, so as a part
of the deployment phase, it is very important to have training classes for new
clients of your software.
Maintaining and enhancing software to cope with newly discovered problems or
new requirements can take far more time than the initial development of the
software. It may be necessary to add code that does not fit the original design to
correct an unforeseen problem or it may be that a customer is requesting more
functionality and code can be added to accommodate their requests. If the labor
cost of the maintenance phase exceeds 25% of the prior-phases' labor cost, then it
is likely that the overall quality of at least one prior phase is poor. In that case,
management should consider the option of rebuilding the system (or portions)
before maintenance cost is out of control.
Bug Tracking System tools are often deployed at this stage of the process to allow
development teams to interface with customer/field teams testing the software to
identify any real or perceived issues. These software tools, both open source and
commercially licensed, provide a customizable process to acquire, review,
acknowledge, and respond to reported issues.
