CONCLUSION.

Image
  An incremental model is a useful approach to software development, especially when requirements are not well understood or are likely to change over time. It allows for a more flexible and adaptable development process, with the potential for earlier delivery of working software. It also provides greater visibility into the development process, making it easier to manage and control. WE HOPE YOU ENJOYED OUR BLOG PRESENTATION! REFERENCES: GeeksforGeeks. (2022).

DISADVANTAGES OF THE INCREMENTAL MODEL.

  Increased complexity: The incremental model can lead to increased complexity, as each increment must be integrated into the final product. Increased costs: The incremental model can lead to increased costs, as each increment requires additional development and testing. The cost here is higher than the cost in the Waterfall model. Team and planning: A good team and proper planned execution are required in using the incremental model.

ADVANTAGES OF INCREMENTAL MODEL OVER OTHER SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT MODELS.

  Flexibility: The incremental model allows for changes in requirements to be accommodated more easily. The incremental model is highly flexible and allows for changes to be made during the development process. If new requirements arise, they can be incorporated into the next increment without affecting the overall development process. Early feedback: Because each increment is tested independently, feedback can be obtained early in the development process. This means that any issues or problems can be identified and addressed early on, resulting in a higher-quality product. Reduced risk: By developing the software in increments, the risk of failure is reduced. Each increment is tested and verified before moving on to the next increment, which minimizes the risk of errors and ensures that the software functions correctly. Better time management: The incremental model allows for better time management as each increment can be developed and tested independently. This means that the de

ADVANTAGES OF THE INCREMENTAL MODEL.

  In the incremental model, It is easy to recognize errors. It is easier to test and debug during a smaller iteration. It is more flexible to implement changes in scope and requirements. It is easier to manage risk because it handles that during its iteration. The Client gets important functionality early.

WHEN TO USE THE INCREMENTAL MODEL.

  When the requirements are known and superior. A project has a lengthy development schedule. When the software team are not very skilled or trained. When the customer demands a quick release of the product. To develop prioritized requirements first. 

TYPES OF INCREMENTAL MODEL.

STAGED DELIVERY MODEL. Construction of only one part of the project at a time.  2. PARALLEL DEVELOPMENT MODEL. Different subsystems are developed at the same time. It can decrease the calendar time needed for the development, i.e. TTM (Time to Market) if enough resources are available.  There are four approaches to implementing the incremental model. They are: Top Down. The topmost software component is implemented first in a top-down approach. Like, the user interface of any software is its most vital component and is also its most noticeable aspect. Since it mimics the finished product, the customer can see how the user interface works. The top-down method operates in a breath-first manner. Bottom-Up. The lowest level of the software is implemented first in a bottom-up approach. The element on which everything depends is the lowest one. These elements could be classes that are reused or shared to create a shared library for an application. The disadvantage of the bottom-up technique,

THE PHASES OF THE INCREMENTAL MODEL.

  REQUIREMENT GATHERING AND ANALYSIS. In this phase, the requirements of the software are gathered and analyzed by the product analysis expertise. The requirements are then divided into smaller, more manageable parts that can be developed in increments. The requirement analysis team understands the system's functional requirements. To develop software under the incremental model, this phase performs a crucial role. DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT. In this phase, the design of the software is created based on the requirements. The design should be modular, with each module representing a part of the software that can be developed and tested independently. The design of the system functionality and the development method is finished with success. When software develops new practicality, the incremental model uses style and development phase. TESTING. In this phase, testing is performed on each increment to ensure that it meets the requirements and functions correctly. The testing phase check
