...scale and pace of growth in this sector is faster than in any other industry, and a number of developing countries having cheap, talented labor are attempting to emulate the success enjoyed by countries such as China, Thailand and India. The government in 1997 identified the software sector as a thrust sector for the overall economic growth of the country. Accordingly, a commission was formed under the ministry of commerce (later called JRC commission) to formulate some recommendations for the rapid growth of the software industry in Bangladesh. The commission identified four problematic functional areas namely: fiscal, human resource, infrastructure, and marketing, and provided some recommendations to overcome the barriers in software development in our country. By accepting these recommendations (however, some of these recommendations are yet to be implemented), the government had set a target to export yearly software worth two billion dollar (Tk 14,000 crore) by the year 2006. However the statistics (BCIT) reveal that the total earning from software sector during 2004-2005 was approximately Tk 88.34 crore. No doubt, this achievement lies far behind as it has been envisaged. In this research the main focus is to find the problems that exist in Bangladesh Software Industry so that it fail to achieve the success like that of India. It then draws some conclusions about recommended actions to overcome these problems and become a leading software exporters from in this region...

...Performance and Cost Evaluation of an Adaptive Encryption Architecture for Cloud Databases Abstract: The cloud database as a service is a novel paradigm that can support several Internet-based applications, but its adoption requires the solution of information confidentiality problems. We propose a novel architecture for adaptive encryption of public cloud databases that offers an interesting alternative to the tradeoff between the required data confidentiality level and the flexibility of the cloud database structures at design time. We demonstrate the feasibility and performance of the proposed solution through a software prototype. Moreover, we propose an original cost model that is oriented to the evaluation of cloud database services in plain and encrypted instances and that takes into account the variability of cloud prices and tenant workloads during a medium-term period.

...Waterfall Software Development Life Cycle Model The simplest software development life cycle model is the waterfall model, which states that the phases are organized in a linear order. A project begins with feasibility analysis. On the successful demonstration of the feasibility analysis, the requirements analysis and project planning begins. The design starts after the requirements analysis is done. And coding begins after the design is done. Once the programming is completed, the code is integrated and testing is done. On succeeful completion of testing, the system is installed. After this the regular operation and maintenance of the system takes place. The following figure demonstrates the steps involved in waterfall life cycle model. The Waterfall Software Life Cycle Model With the waterfall model, the activities performed in a software development project are requirements analysis, project planning, system design, detailed design, coding and unit testing, system integration and testing. Linear ordering of activities has some important consequences. First, to clearly identify the end of a phase and beginning of the others. Some certification mechanism has to be employed at the end of each phase. This is usually done by some verification and validation. Validation means confirming the output of a phase is consistent with its input (which is the output of the previous phase) and that the output of the phase is consistent with overall requirements of the system. The...

...1. What is information technology, and why is it important to a business? Information Technology (IT) is combination of hardware, software and services that people use to manage, communicate, and share information. It helps a business with product development, process improvement, stakeholder integration, cost efficiencies, and globalization. 2. Define business profiles, processes, and modeling. Business profile is an overview of a company’s mission, functions, organization, products, services, customers, suppliers, competitors, constraints, and future direction. Business process describes specific events, tasks, and desired results. Business process model (BPM) displays one or more business processes, such as an airline reservation, filling a product order, or updating a customer account. 3. Identify the main components of an information system and describe the system’s stakeholders. The main components of an information system are hardware, software, data/Information, processes/procedures, and people. Stakeholders are the people who have an interest in an information system. This includes the management group, the users (end users), and IT staff members. 4. Explain the differences between vertical and horizontal systems packages. A horizontal application is a basic software package system that can be adapted to common business processes for example inventory and payroll. A vertical application system is customized to meet the unique needs of a particular business...

...System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) SDLC is a set of activities which are perform by analyst and developer to create the system for software. SDLC is a conceptual model used in project management that describes the stages involved in information system development project from a preliminary study through maintenance of the complete application. SDLC follows six steps-: 1 Preliminary study 2 Determination of system requirement 3 System design 4 Software development 5 System testing 6 Implementation & Maintenance 1 Preliminary study -: Preliminary investigation is the first step in the system development life cycle. The preliminary investigation is a way of handling the user’s request to change, improve or enhance an existing system. The objective is to determine, whether the request is valid and feasible before any recommendation is made to do nothing, improve or modify the existing system, or build altogether a new one. Preliminary study divided into following 3 categories – A. Request Analysis B. Feasibility study C. Request Approval Request Analysis:- In this category, the users need is clearlyIdentify. Analyst identifies that what are the requirements of the user. Feasibility study:- The aim of the feasibility study is to access alternative systems and to propose the most feasible and desirable system for development. Thus, feasibility study provides an overview of the problem and acts as an important checkpoint that should be completed before committing more...

...Enterprise Systems Development: Impact of Various Software Development Methodologies By NAVEEN KARKONDA Id#110-00-4907 Abstract: Software Development Methodologies have always been the main focus in the software development life cycle of any project. Each evolutionary shift introduced new ways of thinking and viewing problems as well as introducing strengths and weaknesses in software development. However, identifying one stop solution in terms of a software development methodology for enterprise wide application development whose various sub-components or sub-stages can be best used to describe a software development scenario is still an evolving domain. This, coupled with the reality that computer science and its allied areas like information systems and information technology domains are moving forward rapidly with regards to available technologies, making it extremely difficult task for practitioners to maintain pace with the available information technologies and their application in various domains. It is to address these scenarios and probabilities that this research paper examines various software development methodologies or process models and their impact on the overall software development life cycle. 1. Introduction: Software Development Methodologies have always been the main focus during the software development life cycle of any project. Over the past 40 years, there have been significant paradigm shifts in software development, such as structured...

...manager must have clear understanding of all the activities and process in managing project. Project management plays an important role from the start to end of the project. A good project manager will play a vital role in executing the project within the specified time period. Role of Project Management in Software Engineering: Software development is a people centric activity. Therefore, success of project is on the shoulders of the people who are involved in the development of project. Software development requires good managers, who can understand the project completely and provide good leadership for successful completion of software project. In IT industry, all projects move through five phases that are initiating, planning, executing, monitoring and controlling, and closing. Computer and information system managers play a vital role in implementation and administration of technology within the organization. Many software development processes can be run in the same way as general project management processes. A system development life cycle (SDLC) is a framework that describes the different phases involved in developing and maintaining information systems. Software project management is the art of managing software project. It is a sub-discipline of project management in which software projects are developed. Software Development Process: A software development process is also known as software development life cycle (SDLC). There are many SDLC models that...

...SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT PROCESS 1 Establishing a Formal Systems Development Process NAME Dr. Matthew Anyanwu CIS510 Advance System Analysis and Design 21 July 2010 ESTABLISHING A FORMAL SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT PROCESS 2 Absract Brian and Carrie are systems analysts with many years of systems development experience at a large firm. Jane has recently been hired as the company’s first-ever process manager. She has been reviewing the company’s past practices of systems development with the intent of trying to establish a formal systems development process for the company. Brian has been a long-time proponent of the waterfall approach to systems development. Carrie has been a big proponent of the iterative/incremental development approach. Both are known to be very opinionated on the tools and techniques that should be used for systems development projects and both are lobbying Jane very hard to adopt their preferred techniques. This paper will describe how Jane should deal with the two system analysts from a technical and human resource perspective and explain the factors that Jane should consider in establishing a process management solution. Additionally, assuming you have two promising tools and techniques, we will suggest three or more ways you can foster a team environment when one analyst does not get his or her way.

...phase is the main focus of the project managers and stake holders. Design-The software system design is produced from the results of the requirements phase. Implementation-Code is produced from the deliverables of the design phase during implementation, and this is the longest phase of the software development life cycle. Testing-During testing, the implementation is tested against the requirements to make sure that the product is actually solving the needs addressed and gathered during the requirements phase. (CIO.2002). Waterfall Model-This is the most common and classic of life cycle models, also referred to as a linear-sequential life cycle model. It is very simple to understand and use. In a waterfall model, each phase must be completed in its entirety before the next phase can begin. At the end of each phase, a review takes place to determine if the project is on the right path and whether or not to continue or discard the project. Unlike what I mentioned in the general model, phases do not overlap in a waterfall model. (DOJ,2003). Advantages- Simple and easy to use. Easy to manage due to the rigidity of the model – each phase has specific deliverables and a review process. Phases are processed and completed one at a time. Works well for smaller projects where requirements are very well understood. Disadvantages - Adjusting scope during the life cycle can kill a project. No working software is produced until late during the life cycle. High amounts of risk and uncertainty...

...IT 460 Unit 1 Kaplan University Harold Boyd The first thing I am going to talk about is JAD (Joint Application Development). Joint Application Development (JAD) is a development technique used to help IT developers build systems. This technique was developed by IBM in the 1970's. In this technique, a team is formed of members of different backgrounds. These members are made up of end-users, management, and IT staff. This team meets and discusses the current project in a number of workshops/sessions. These workshops are used to define the project and to design a solution. Since the team includes actual users of the current system, the system analyst will have a better picture of what the clients would want in a new system. There are four thoughts to consider when working in a JAD. First, the best people that understand the job functions are the people that perform those duties. Needless to say, these people are the best source of information when a question comes up about a particular process. On the other end, IT people understand the "behind the scenes" workings of the current system and can answer question on those topics. These two points introduce the third idea, which is the difference between business professionals and IT professionals. At times, business professionals do not understand subjects in the IT realm (i.e., they are "computer illiterate"). On the other side of the spectrum, IT professionals have issues understanding subject matter in the business realm (i...

...initial set of functional test cases is specified, to serve as a vehicle for checking that the implementation is complete and basically correct. Analysis culminates in identifying classes implied by the use cases, and documenting them using an Analysis Class Diagram.” (Russell C. Bjork Professor of Computer Science, 2004) The difference is in object oriented analysis the data is combined in a process that acts on the data in the object whereas structured analysis treats the process and the data as separate components. 2- Describe the phases of the system development life cycle, and compare the SDLC waterfall model with the spiral model? “The Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a conceptual model used in project management that describes the stages involved in an information system development project from an initial feasibility study through maintenance of the completed application.
