On the other hand, it would be hilarious if it let me know some of my lady friends ended up in the pr0n business. Shucks | :->

The temptation to set up anonymous browsing is getting stronger all the time. However I don't think any of my friends have any illusions about me, if they do I'll be disappointed.

Questionneed help to select a Software ModelmemberPAthanKp3 Nov '12 - 23:19 
hello my name is PAthan Kp, im a student of HND Computing (1st Semester)
im working on a assignment, so need your help to select a right software model, for a Home Appliances company to develop a software.
 
Scenario
You are currently working as a Software Engineer at a Company that deals in making Automated Home Appliances. The Company has to come up with new model of each product every year depending on the market trends and user needs.
The purpose of the software developed for such appliances is to configure and control the hardware. So the job of the software engineering department is to develop the software that controls, configures and test the hardware.
As the software is embedded within the hardware, so the software application for the devices must be completely tested and implemented before the shipment of the product.
 
Task
1. Compare different software development life cycle models and select the best method for the given problem.
2. Discuss how the selected system development life cycle is best for the given problem.
3.Give examples to support your idea by sugguesting any other projects that can also use the particular method selected by you.
4. Select an alternate system development life cycle method that can be used to solve the given problem.
AnswerRe: need help to select a Software ModelmemberSimon_Whale3 Nov '12 - 23:29 
to help you with task 1.
 
you must improve your Google-fu skills
1. open the google homepage Google[^]
2. type into the search page without the speech marks "software development life cycle models"
3. read the through the results, personally I would start with searching WIKI
 
4. Any problems please post in the QA or forums asking specific questions and saying where you are stuck and what you have done and we will help you as much as possible.
 
Sorry for the sarcastic response but I dont want to be spending my sunday DOING your homework.

Well, good for you.
 
Do you expect us to do your homework for you? What have you done yet ? I assume you have course documentation (books, slides, references) that you can use to answer all of those.
 
When (if) you are employed, will you continue asking others to do your work for you or will you take the responsibility of doing it yourself, taking the risk of failure?
 
Have a nice one.

NASA completely tests their stuff, before blasting the billions into space. Yet even there, things sometimes explode. If the task states "completely tested", then the task fails before it is started.

How many "software development life cycle models" have been introduced to you during class? Can you explain me what a "software development life cycle model" is, or give me an example?

In that case, the correct term would be "software development methodology".
