September 1999 Cutter IT Journal -- Software Process for the 21st Century
One of the many things software professionals must think about is the kind of software processes and practices they'll use in the decade ahead. For example, though the much-maligned waterfall development approach is nearly 30 years old, it continues to be used in many organizations around the world. Is it now time to retire it to the Methodology Hall of Fame? And the various combinations of prototyping, spiral, and iterative lifecycle approaches to software development have now been discussed, debated, and practiced for nearly 20 years. Is it time for them to assume dominance? Or will they be replaced by an entirely different set of processes and practices attuned to such things as e-commerce and Web- based applications?
