23CSE311 Software Engineering

Session 01/Units 1 and 2

Overview of software process models

Waterfall and V model, then incremental, prototyping, spiral, and concurrent models as a survey, and their contrast with Agile. Evolutionary models: the survey takes 15 to 20 minutes of this session, with no worked comparison exercise and no deep spiral risk analysis. The lecture notes carry the full detail. Quiz 1 and the midterm assess recognition of each model, its trade offs, and its suitability.
