In this essay I will compare two well-known and widely used methods of software development‚ the traditional Waterfall Method and the more recently established Agile Method. The Waterfall method is a structured‚ linear approach that breaks down the software development process‚ or life-cycle‚ into distinct stages. The Agile method is just as the name states‚ it is flexible and adaptable. It breaks the development process into smaller segments defined by deliverable goals‚ each segment runs through

How Digital Technologies are changing the way we work: Intelligent processes create a virtuous cycle of constant improvement fed by continuous feedback. An intelligent process is studded with sensors that monitor every move and feed those observations into sophisticated models that allow people and software to make real-time adjustments and decisions. Digital technologies make it possible to identify opportunities for adaptation‚ analyze the trade-offs and then adapt faster and more efficiently

2.3 Incremental vs Radical Innovation To summarize‚ incremental innovation compared to radical innovation: Incremental innovation is based on iterative efforts to provide new benefits‚ features‚ and improvements to products in the existing market based on existing technologies (i.e. improvements within a given frame of solutions [X6]). Examples of incremental innovation are improvements of the fuel efficiency of the combustion engines in vehicles‚ or technological improvements that make it possible

RAD Rapid Application Development What is RAD and what does it involve? Rapid Application Development‚ or RAD for short‚ is a method of developing software with the minimum amount of planning; this allows the programme or software to be completed much faster than traditional software development. The two most popular RAD systems are Visual Basic and Delphi. In what circumstances would RAD be used and why? RAD would be used when the programme would be under a heavy time constraint‚ therefore
