CRITICAL ANALYSIS ON VARIOUS SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT MODELS

Software engineering deals with development of software to achieve the user requirements under a given time and specified budget. Thousands of software are developed every year but very few satisfy all the user expectations. A software development has certain phases under which a software undergoes during its life cycle. The correct software development model aims to achieve a quality software in low cost. The selection of correct software development model would become easier after this critical analysis. The aim of this paper is to minimize the ambiguity of selection of software models at the time of development and modify the phases of the software development models according to today’s need.
