Free Software ... What is it mean ??
Now, we're talking about Free software, actually, what is mean ??Free software is software that can be used, studied, and modified without restriction, and which can be copied and redistributed in modified or unmodified form either without restriction, or with restrictions only to ensure that further recipients can also do these things. To make these acts possible, the human readable form of the program (called the source code) must be made available and the software must be accompanied by a software licence saying that the copyright holder permits...

In Defense of UML, RUP,and Application Design (Part-3)
Bottom-Up Project Planning Let’s go back now to my recent project. Several days were spent creating a detailed plan that embodied our approach, describing the tasks involved along with some concept of the resources necessary. That plan was then passed on to the project manager. The technical team now felt comfortable about the scope of the project, and we felt more prepared for our second meeting with management. We now believed we had a defensible position that was substantiated by a realistic plan. About halfway through the design phase, however,...
In Defense of UML, RUP,and Application Design (Part-2)
Not Heavy, But Solid RUP has a reputation for being a “heavy” methodology that requires a solid understanding of UML, which is why so many organizations find ways to avoid it.

They too were heavy, but when they were used appropriately, I always found they contributed significantly to project success. The main problem with methodologies is that organizations...

by Frank Teti “Heavy” or not, a good methodology can be the key to success for a project. But using it properly requires practice, understanding, and communication. Most technologists who build enterprise-wide business systems would agree that one of the hardest, yet most important, parts of the job is the task of gaining an understanding of business requirements. Translating requirements into design artifacts useful for implementing systems is an art as well as a science, and implementing business...
Driving Requirements Down the Pipe
by Jim Johnson An agile development process improves the odds of success; try executing a baseline project to take six months and cost no more than $750,000 “A requirement saved is a requirement earned,” to paraphrase Ben Franklin. A saying that might be just as germane is, “If you watch your pennies, the dollars will take care of themselves,” but you’ll have to change it to, “If you watch your requirements, the projects will take care of themselves.” Let’s face it: a project is a collection...
