Traditional Approach to Software Development

m "Waterfall Methodology"

m Works when:

Ù The client knows precisely what is required.

Ù The product is not needed for some time.

Ù The product cannot be acquired by another means.

Ù The client is a unified entity.

Ù The requirements do not change significantly during the life of the product.

e.g. Specific, well-defined software tools for well-understood uses.
