Review questions

1. give a brief description of UP UP is an iterative and incremental develoopment process

2. Give a brief description of each of the four phases of UP

   1. inception
   2. elaboration
   3. constuction
   4. transition

Unified process (UP)

oop development uses UML for modelling four phase life cycle

• inception
• elaboration
• construction
• transition

best practices

• develop iteratively
• define and mange system requirements
  • effectively managing changes in requirements
• use component architectures
• create visual models (UML)
• verify quality
• Control changes

Values and principles

Values:

• individuals and interactions over processes and tools
• working software over comprehensive documentation
• customer collaboration over contract negotiation
• responding to change over following a plan

Twelve modelling principles:

Build only necessary models that are useful and at the right level of detail

• Software is your primary goal — don’t get distracted by documentation or models.
• The next effort is your secondary goal — be aware of next step versions or revisions.
• Minimise modelling — only build what helps move the project forward.
• Embrace change, change incrementally — take small steps that keep you on track and that can be reversed if necessary.
• Model with a purpose — to understand and communicate.
• Build multiple models — look at problems from different perspectives.
• Build high-quality models and get feedback — from stakeholders, other developers.
• Focus on content, not representation — always focus on stakeholder needs; informal hand-drawn models are often fine.
• Communicate and learn from each other.
• Know your models and how to use them.
• Adapt to specific project needs.
• Maximise stakeholder ROI.
