When developing software, the selection of an appropriate software development methodology (SDM) is an essential decision. There are many SDM exist that are used to control the process of developing a software process. No exact system was found which could guide software engineers for selection of a proper methodology during software development. This paper show factor affecting the selection of SDM and the consistency in which the methodology selection carried out. Based on Fuzzy AHP, we evaluate the consistency in SDM selection. This paper presents a framework of Fuzzy AHP approach for selection of three different SDM with their three conflicting selecting criteria alternatives.
Now a day's speed and time are the two major factors in software industry, so in this paper we propose a modified timeboxing model for proper utilization of resources and reduction of slack time. As a result a good quality software is produced in less time period. In case of modified timeboxing process model, we divide each stages of timebox of timeboxing process model to different sub-stages and execute them concurrently to reduce the slack (free) time. In the proposed model each iteration is done in a timebox of fixed duration having some specific functionality.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
