Best Answer

The model states that the phases are organized in a Linear Order. In other words, the output of one phase becomes the input for the next phase. Various phases have already been explained under a general model of system development. The different phases of the waterfall model are:

Proposal Definition

Feasibility Study

Requirement Analysis

System Design

Coding & Testing

Implementation

System Maintenance

Limitations of the Waterfall Model. 1. The waterfall model assumes that the requirements of a system can be frozen (i.e. baseline) before the design begins. This is possible for systems designed to automate an existing manual system. But for new systems, determining the requirements is difficult, as the user does not even know the requirements. Hence, having unchanging requirements is unrealistic for such projects.

2. Freezing the requirements usually requires choosing the hardware (because it forms a part of the requirements specification). A large project might take a few years to complete. If the hardware is selected early, it is likely that the final software will use a hardware technology on the verge of becoming obsolete. It is a document driven process that requires formal documents at the end of each phase.

3. This model stresses that the requirements should be completely specified before the beginning of the next phase. But it is not possible in all the systems...

Three types of systems or system upgrades that may be ideal candidates for a Waterfall Development Model strategy?

The Waterfall Model is the oldest and most well-known SDLC model. The distinctive feature of the Waterfall model is its sequential step-by-step process from requirements analysis to maintenance.


Which SDLC paradigm will be selected in library information system?

The Spiral model seems as an ideal choice here. No other model seems a reasonable alternative to accept as a different answer.This model combines the features of the prototyping & the waterfall model.As library information system for a university is a large project,therefore spiral model is intended for large,complex,expensive & complicated projects.
