TITLE A Review of SDLC Approaches and Their Conceptual Perspectives
ABSTRACT The successful execution of any software project necessitates a well-defined and structured development process. Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) methodologies offer diverse models designed to align with the requirements of various proposed projects, providing predictable and efficient system development scenarios. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the major SDLC methodologies, illuminating the core Traditional (Heavy-weight) and Agile (Light-weight) approaches, along with their respective models. A detailed analytical study of the strengths and weaknesses of popular models—including Waterfall, Iterative, Spiral, V-Model, Big Bang, eXtreme Programming (XP), Scrum, Feature-Driven Development (FDD), and Kanban—is presented. The ultimate goal of SDLC is to deliver a high-quality program that meets customer expectations within a defined duration and reasonable cost.
