There are a number of different software development methodologies.The waterfall methodology is a sequential,activity-based process in which each phase in the SDLC is performed sequentially from planning through implementation and maintenance.The rapid application development methodology (RAD)emphasizes extensive user involvement in the rapid and evolutionary construction of working prototypes of a system to accelerate the systems development process.The extreme programming (XP)methodology breaks a project into four phases,and developers cannot continue on to the next phase until the first phase is complete.The agile methodology is a form of XP.It aims for customer satisfaction through early and continuous delivery of useful software components.The Rational Unified Process (RUP)provides a framework for breaking down software development into four gates: Gate One,Inception; Gate Two,Elaboration; Gate Three,Construction; Gate Four,Transition.The Scrum methodology uses small teams to produce small pieces of deliverable software using sprints,or 30-day intervals,to achieve an appointed goal.
