Chapter 6 Software Process Model (SPM)  6.1 SOFTWARE PROJECT CONCEPT • A software project is the complete software development process that starts with gathering requirements, analyzing, designing, coding, and testing in a given time frame to produce the desired software output. A project can be characterized as: ➢ Every project may have its own set of goals. ➢ A project is not a day-to-day operation or a normal task. ➢ Each project has a beginning and an end date. ➢ A project is completed when its aim is met, hence it is only a brief phase in an organization's life cycle. ➢ A project requires sufficient resources in terms of time, manpower, finance, material, and knowledge. 6.2 CONCEPT OF SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS • The software development process is the process of developing software by dividing software development work into several phases. • The process is also known as a software development life cycle (SDLC), which includes several phases that provide a method for buildin...

7 Recent Trends In Technology 7.1 Concept of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Robotics Notes: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science focused on building systems that can perform tasks requiring human intelligence, such as understanding language, recognizing patterns, and making decisions. Robotics involves creating robots—machines designed to carry out specific tasks automatically, often using AI to enhance their capabilities. Applications: Virtual Assistants: Siri, Alexa, and Google Assistant. Self-Driving Cars: Cars that use AI to navigate roads safely. Healthcare: AI helps diagnose diseases and plan treatments. Manufacturing: Robotic arms in factories for assembly and packaging. Advantages: Increases productivity and accuracy. Can operate in hazardous conditions (e.g., deep-sea, space exploration). Reduces human workload for repetitive tasks. Capable of processing vast amounts of data quickly. Disadvantages: Expensive to develop and maintain. Potential to r...
