Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM)

Dynamic Systems Development Method(DSDM) :-
  • Dynamic system development method is approach to system development which as the name suggests develops the system dynamically
  • it is a Rapid application development that uses incremental Prototyping.
  • The DSDM philosophy is borrowed from a modified version of "Pareto Principle"
    • Pareto Principle :- 
      • 80% of an application can be delivered in 20% of the time it would take to deliver the complete(100%) application.
  • DSDM is an iterative software process in which each iteration follows 80% rule.
    • That is only enough work is required for each increment to start next increment
    • The remaining work can be completed later when more requirements are known or changes have been requested.
  • DSDM life cycle defines 3 different cycles preceded by 2 additional life cycle activities (FBFDI)
    • Feasibility Study :- 
      • establishes the basic business requirements and constraint associated with the application to be built.
      • and Identifies whether DSDM is adoptable ?
    • Business Study :-
      • establishes the Functional and information requirements that will allow the application to provide business value .
      • also defines the basic application architecture and identifies the maintainability requirements for the application.
    • Functional Model Iteration :- 
      • the main focus in this phase is on building the prototype and getting it reviewed from the user to bring out the requirements of desired system.
      • Prototype help to better understand what actually customer wants & what is the requirements.
    • Design and Build Iteration:-
      • we visit the prototype once again to ensure that all the requirements are covered in the prototype or not.
      • in some cases Functional model iteration and design and build Iteration occur concurrently.
    • Implementation:-
      • places the latest software increment into the operational environment.
      • but there may be possible that
        1. The increment may not be  completed 100%.
        2. changes may be requested 
      • In either case DSDM development work continuous by returning to the Functional Model Iteration phase.

Adaptive Software Development (ASD)

Adaptive Software Development (ASD) :- Adaptive Software Development(ASD) has been proposed by Jim High smith as technique for building complex software and system. ASD focus on human collaboration and team self-organization. Jim High smith defines an ASD "Life Cycle" that consist of three phases  Speculation Collaboration learning  During speculation, the project is initiated and adaptive cycle planning is conducted. Adaptive cycle planning uses project Initiation information,the customer's mission statement ,basic requirements and project constraint to define the set of release cycles that will be required for the project. Collaboration encompasses communication and team-work but it also enphasizes individualism because individual creativity plays an important role in collaborative thinking.It is all above all,a matter of trust. people working together must trust one another to comment without war help without irritation work as hard as ...

Dijkstra's algorithm

Djikstra's algorithm   solves the problem of finding the shortest path from a point in a graph (the  source ) to a destination. It turns out that one can find the shortest paths from a given source to  all  points in a graph in the same time, hence this problem is sometimes called the  single-source shortest paths  problem. This problem is related to the spanning tree one. The graph representing all the paths from one vertex to all the others must be a spanning tree - it must include all vertices. There will also be no cycles as a cycle would define more than one path from the selected vertex to at least one other vertex. For a graph, G = (V,E) where V is a set of vertices and E is a set of edges. Dijkstra's algorithm keeps two sets of vertices: S    the set of vertices whose shortest paths from the source have already been determined  and V-    S :   the remaining v...

Kruskal’s Minimum Spanning Tree Algorithm & Programme

PROBLEM :                  Kruskal's algorithm is a minimum-spanning-tree algorithm which finds an edge of the least possible weight that connects any two trees in the forest. It is a greedy algorithm in graph theory as it finds a minimum spanning tree for a connected weighted graph adding increasing cost arcs at each step. To understand Kruskal's algorithm let us consider the following example − Step 1 - Remove all loops and Parallel Edges Remove all loops and parallel edges from the given graph. In case of parallel edges, keep the one which has the least cost associated and ove all others. Step 2 - Arrange all edges in their increasing order of weight The next step is to create a set of edges and weight, and arrange them in an ascending order of weightage (cost). Step 3 - Add the edge which has the least weightage Now we start adding edges to the graph beginning from the one which has the least weight. Th...
