• Waterfall model– Clear phases– Highly structured– Bad in practice– What if we want to

change something in the previous phase?

Maintenence

Agile software development

• More flexible• Communicate, communicate, communicate • Accelerated development• Key features:

– Individuals and interactions over processes and tools

– Working software over comprehensive documentation

– Customer collaboration over contract negotiation– Responding to change over following a plan
