Systems analysis and design

Many time we heard about agile in soft­ware devel­op­ment. Many times authors wrote that agile provide us to fast and cheapest solu­tions. It is true but not all the times. Chaos Report (see Standish Group) show us, that is not true all the times.

Few comments…

Gen­er­ally small pro­jects are not a (big) problem..

Water­fall vs. agile: first one meth­od con­sume many more time than second one, but we have no time to «big ana­lys­is». Second one mean «work­ing too fast», and effect is more pro­to­typ­ing mean cost increas­ing… many time mean: can­cel pro­ject before fin­ish caused by budget:

A water­fall is not a solu­tion, but agile is not a good rem­edy for it. A com­mon prob­lem in soft­ware design is sys­tem size and complexity:

How to improve qual­ity and chance to suc­ceed soft­ware pro­ject? We need really good per­son to busi­ness ana­lys­is role and only one. More than one per­son in a first stage, mean more prob­lem with mer­ging parts to one com­pleted and unam­bigu­ous require­ments doc­u­ment :

Dis­cip­lined agile, what is it? Using mod­els in agile, why and for what? Mod­ern sys­tem ana­lys­is and design is not a water­fall and not a agile style… It is sci­ence meth­od used for soft­ware engin­eer­ing . Dis­cov­er the MDA and pat­terns as a wand for your suc­cess in soft­ware pro­jects. See the sys­tem as a archi­tec­ture .
