Consider the 7 steps of the Systems Development Life Cycle. What two steps in the process do you feel is the most critical? Can any steps be left out of the cycle?

• Planning

• Needs Analysis

• Design and Acquisition

• Build

• Testing

• Implementation

• Maintenance

Expert Solution

I feel that the two most important steps of System Development Life cycle are:

Planning - This is the stage where the idea is conceived & thought process regarding the ultimate objective is started. It has to be concrete & practical. If this stage goes wrong then the entire process is doomed to fail since the palnning was faulty no matter how good the execution

Testing - This is also a very imprtant stage of the life cycle.If there was any error in the building, planning or any other stage of the life cycle, it needs to be rectified before being launched in the market. Testing the product before the same can uncover various hidden issues with it which require fixation and correction.Hence, testing stage acquires a very critical role.

No, none of the stages can be left out of the cycle. All the stages together complete the System Development Life Cycle.

Looking forward to your upvote.Thanks!!

One of the steps in the System Development Life Cycle is Implementation. (a)Explain what work has already been completed before the start of Implementation. (b)Describe what work is done during Implementation and explain why it is important. (c) Explain why more time spent during earlier software development phases (e.g. analysis and design) can contribute to reducing overall software development costs. Provide an illustrating example to support your arguments.

Describe the process embryonic development. Consider the following: a. What milestones/steps are included in this process and when do they occur? b. What structures are formed as the embryo develops? c. How do the structures identified in part “b” contribute to embryonic development? ~Part "b" refers to the answer to part b, not a diagram.

5. Describe the systems development life cycle (SDLC) methodology in the context of a “real” example. In other words, think about (or imagine) a situation where you proposed the need for a new information system. For this system development effort, describe what happened (or should happen) during the definition, build, and implementation phases.

Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) has been a concept for building new or re-engineering legacy systems since 1960’s. Using this top down approach has many beneficial elements from clearly defined objectives to proper system testings before implementation. However, there are many key contrary elements as well.
