software development requirement analysis

Now it’s a time to write about software development requirement analysis.

Software Development Requirement analysis is a clear step in the software development life cycle (SDLC) replica. Since insufficient awareness to requirements is a key reason of software defects, getting software requirements without a doubt defined in the beginning saves time, cost, and irritation in later on phases. This way details the procedure of seminal requirements. Topics consist of definitions and levels of requirements, common system and advantageous characteristics of requirements, risks connected with requirements, requirement analysis methods as well as sources, necessities roadmap, justification and traceability of necessities, and requirement transform administration.

Theoretically, requirements analysis includes three types of action:

Eliciting requirements: the job of communicating with clientele and users to conclude what their necessities are.

Analyzing requirements: shaping whether the stated necessities are undecided, imperfect, vague, or conflicting, and after that resolve these issues.

Recording requirements: necessities may perhaps be documented in different forms, for example natural-language credentials, use case studies, or procedure condition.

Software development requirement analysis Introduction

In my previous post, I posted some basic concepts of Software development and Iterative software lifecycle methodology.

Now its time to elaborate little bit about custom software development requirement analysis which is the most crucial part of any application development. This is the base of any software, i.e. if you don’t understand your requirement it creates major problem in later stage. Sometime after completion of a project, it comes to know that we skip these features like that kind of things; it causes to back and redesign the whole process again. And of course cost of the project increase, unreliable and time also increased.
Now question arise, how can we avoid this mishap or uncertainty in software development? Answer is simple; we need proper documents of requirement analysis. Remember, requirement analysis is critical to the success of any application projects.
Next blog I’ll post all about requirement analysis.

Information about Iterative Software Development Lifecycle Methodology

So before writing Iterative software development lifecycle methodology, let’s have a look on software development…

Now question arise what is software development? Now this kind of question put up what are the basic needs of software development? How we develop software? What are the basic requirements to develop software?

Here I only give brief information of software development rather than answering all the questions what I put up?

Software development is the version of a user require or advertising goal into a software product. Software development may consist of new development, re-development, change, reprocess, continuance, or any other activities that effect in software products. A software development procedure is a procedure used to build up PC software. It may be an informal process, devise by the group for one assignment, but the term often refers to a standardized, accepted method which has been used before on similar projects or one which is used routinely within an organization.

Now, it’s is enough information about software development and its process.
Let’s move on to Iterative software Development Life Cycle Methodology.
Running complex software development project is concerning well-organized operation of assets, risk management and Control, precise cost estimation of budgets and timelines, skilled variety of suitable technologies, and scheduling quality development to congregate time-to-market necessities. Risk assessment is a truth in every project; Data Solution Inc.’s iterative method designed for software development is purposely to lessen risk.
Any Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is comprised of four facets:

  1. Requirements Analysis: What are the main features, will the product encompass?
  2. Designing: How will the product recommend these main features?
  3. Coding & Testing: How will the features be coded and unit & integrated tested?
  4. Delivery & Maintenance: How will the product be tested and deliver to clientele?

By an Iterative Software Development life Cycle model, the four facets of a software product are included so that business objectives compel the complete process, and the necessities and plan are constantly polished while the code evolves. The project plan arranges the growth into small releases, and mandates ongoing amalgamation of all coded components, incremental build, and cyclic validation of developed requirements and plan. By means of doing so, it encourages a common possession of the product with business analysts, software designer, architect, programmers and software testers; this common ownership reduces the threat of miscommunication and discrepancy. It also enables ongoing modification and addition to keep away from any unlikable surprises just ahead of the deliverance date.

AJAX Search Engine (SEO) Friendly Web Development Research Tips

Hi guys…

Its too long when I blogged here, little bit busy with other projects, don’t have enough time to blog on some interesting topic…

After so long I’ve little time to discuss on some important topic which are both helpful for web developers and organic SEO professionals.
What do you say about AJAX Search engine (SEO) friendly web development?

Hmm,
Good for web developers to show some creativity also user-friendly but nightmare for SEO Professionals, isn’t it.

So I posted a thread in Sitepoint.com, to check out what other experts says. One person suggests me… you will need to place an alternate version of all the contents in NOSCRIPT tags.

Other forums members suggest me different tips etc… find out here….

I also do some search on www.google.com to find out in more details:
See I find out some interesting points explained in some articles, some blogs etc.

SEO Considerations for AJAX Development

If web development is even remotely within your periphery, you've probably heard of AJAX, which stands for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML. While most serious developers realize the hype is overblown, even the most caffeine-addled code monkeys are impressed with some recent AJAX applications.
Calling AJAX "new" is a little misleading, and it's no different from calling gin & tonic poured over Cap'n Crunch a "new" breakfast treat. The ingredients have been around forever; only the unique combination is recent.
Explained simply, the key benefit of AJAX applications is their ability to work in the background to supply data to the client browser and provide a relatively seamless "application" experience instead of the click-wait, click-wait game of traditional web pages.
The "J" in AJAX (JavaScript) has been a stumbling block for developers with an eye for search-engine friendliness, but that need not be the case. While it's true that engines typically ignore scripted data, good AJAX programs can occasionally come out of their JS trances long enough to feed even the most demanding bots. Following are some notes about AJAX development as it pertains to smart SEO.

The Problem: Not Enough Unique URLs

In my opinion, the single greatest SEO issue with AJAX is the tendency (although not necessity) of AJAX applications to not judiciously create unique, bookmarkable (and therefore indexable) URLs.
I'll use Google Maps as an example, not only because it's used in this excellent AJAX backgrounder written by an IBM engineer, but because Google Maps has come to be known as the "classic" AJAX application. If you have brand awareness like Google, you don't necessarily need too many deep, internal URLs, because everyone remembers and links to "maps.google.com". But for the rest of us, getting many internal pages indexed is critical. Like the IBM article mentions, the fact that Google put the "Link to this page" feature on the Maps page shows that they understand the need for unique URLs pulled from within the application. Depending in what you're doing with AJAX, you'll derive a ton of SEO benefit from a similar philosophy.
A secondary point is that once you've created the capability to create unique internal URLs, you'll need to post them somewhere so they can be crawled. For example, suppose you had an AJAX application that enabled celebrities to build a custom automobile. After enough celebrities had built them, you'd need to build a page that links to those deep links, such as "See Tyra Banks' custom Bentley" or "Ashton Kutcher's punk'd-out Prius," for example.
You'll also need a system that can create custom, relevant titles and meta descriptions for these deep URLs, since the amount of body copy on a page likely won't be particularly plentiful or relevant.

The Other Problem: Too Many Unique URLs

Looking at the other side of the coin, you can also have usability issues by creating too many unique, indexable URLs. Microsoft's Live.com (the beta edition of its search site, which I reviewed in March) is an example. if you go to www.live.com and search for [vacation rentals], you'll get a resulting URL like
http://www.live.com/#q=vacation%20rentals&offset=1
But if you scroll through Live.com's "infinite" results long enough, the "offset" argument starts to tick upwards. Before you know it, you'll be at "offset=20" or something like that. Not necessarily a big deal, until you decide to hit the "Back" button and go to your previous site. You'll need to hit it up to 20 times to get back to that site, since each time you hit it, you merely decrement the offset argument by one. See this post by Microsoft's Robert Scoble for more on this. (Read the comments too; they're a nice contrast to the post, and a great reality check for developers.)
Other issues to consider when developing in AJAX aren't as critical to SEO as the URL issue, but they're still important. These include load time, which can be as bad as bloated Flash if you're not careful, and disabling browser controls that the user has come to rely on - never a good move.


After viewing that research I understand the important things we should remember before developing an AJAX SEO friendly development.

So, if you guys done some research on the similar topic then please comment on that topic.

Tips for Software Development Cycle Part II

Here is second part of the software development cycle. In the previous part you understand what is exact software development process and the questions arise by clients. Now in this section I want to explain why you need a proper process to develop an application or simply application development.


 


Why You Need a Proper Process to develop an application?

Your process is your channel through a landscape of highly complex, mutually supporting activities and sub-activities. During the lifetime of a project, there will be many tensions and pressures that try to deflect your attentions and efforts from developing good quality, utilizable software applications that is deliver in right time.

Most, the process of application development must be maintained throughout the cycle. A software development process is not a formula that, once written down, is never questioned or changed. It is an instruction that incorporate much of the information from previous projects. Maintaining your procedure is your prospect to feed back the successful, or else, experiences of projects into the future projects of your association. An association that cultivates, compliments, and maintains its software development process is a learning association.

Tips for Best Practices in Your Software Development Cycle

In this post you can find out what are the best practices for your software development process. Now question arise what do you mean by Software Development practices. Do you know what they are? Do you make use of them in your everyday application development?



Why is so much software developed unsystematically? Why are best practises in this field ignored? In this post, I first want to give explanation the traditional view for the need of software development process. This is not a big surprise. So why much software’s are still developed unsystematically, either without a process or with disregard to best practises.



What is an exact Software Development Process?

It cannot be stated too often that if you are developing software, you need a process. By process, I mean a guideline description of a repeatable procedure that both describes and prescribe the way that your organization develops software. It describes only the process because the process that works best for your organization is different to the process that works best for another organization. So the process says a bit about how your organization works. It prescribes the way that your organization develops software because it is the process that will be applied to the development of future projects as well.

It is not sufficient just to say that the process is simply:

Cycle 1 >Requirements->

            Analysis->

            Design->

            Implementation->

            Testing->

            Documentation->

            Maintenance

Cycle 2 >Requirements->

            Analysis->

            Design->

            Implementation->

            Testing->

            Documentation->

            Maintenance

And so on.

As this leaves far too many questions open to explanation by customers, managers, and developers alike. For example, what kinds of requirements are gathered in the first Cycle? How detailed is this analysis? Does the design phase wait until the requirements phase is completed before it starts? And many more questions.

 Of course, every association will have its own answers to these and other questions. The answers to such questions should be record in several sort of a document; say a process instruction manual. Then, if a potential customer asks the question "How do you develop software?" etc etc, you can then demonstrate not only that you have thought about it, but that you have a well documented, professional way that works for your association.

Different organizations have different requirements for their processes, so there is not one "correct" process. The developers also need to believe in the process so that they can work together as a team, respecting the boundaries between different parts of the process and the implications of the process on their roles in the overall development.
