Principles of Tradtional Methodologies

Which approach assumes that the project can be planned in advance and that the information system can be developed according to the plan?

• Waterfall model

• Spiral model

• Extreme prototyping

• Agile SDLC

What is a representation of an important aspect of the real world used in system development?

• Model

• Technique

• Tool

• Methodology

Which model is a risk-driven software development process model?

• Rapid prototyping

• Evolutionary prototyping

• Incremental prototyping

• Spiral model

What is the main focus of lightweight methodologies in software development?

• Short iterative cycles

• Extensive planning

• Sequential phases

• Detailed documentation

Which type of prototyping model is used when the need arises for prototype creation and risk evaluation becomes important?

• Extreme prototyping

• Rapid prototyping

• Evolutionary prototyping

• Incremental prototyping

What is the main difference between traditional predictive SDLC and adaptive SDLC?

• Linear and predictive vs. incremental and iterative

• Minimal documentation vs. extensive documentation

• Low maintenance cost vs. high maintenance cost

• Small teams vs. strictly defined roles

Which SDLC model is suitable for projects with a longer development cycle with high costs?

• Incremental prototyping

• Extreme prototyping

• Spiral model

• Waterfall model

What is the main advantage of the Spiral method in software development?

• The system can be used by the user early

• The design need not be perfect

• The objectives are very hard to be defined

• The time spent for risk evaluation may be large

What is the main disadvantage of the Prototyping model in SDLC?

• Management complexity is more

• Risk analysis is better

• Better suited for large mission-critical projects

• Supports changing environment

Which approach is recommended for a project that needs to be done quickly while maintaining its quality, and there is a possibility of requirement changes during the development?

• Agile SDLC

• Spiral model

• Extreme prototyping

• Waterfall model
