The following text is divided into 4 parts (PART 1 - PART 4) with their own tasks to do. Write your answers in the space provided.
PART 1: Guess the correct explanation to Lehman from all the text (A., B. or C.) and motivate your choice.
A. Meir "Manny" Lehman a professor in the School of Computing Science at Middlesex University
B. Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. which is a global financial services firm.
C. The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Lehman College, New York
According to Lehman's definition the process of developing a software product using software engineering principles and methods is referred to as software evolution. This includes the initial development of software and its maintenance and updates, till desired software product is developed, which satisfies the expected requirements.
Evolution starts from the requirement gathering process. After which developers create a prototype of the intended software and show it to the users to get their feedback at the early stage of software product development. The users suggest changes, on which several consecutive updates and maintenance keep on changing too. This process changes to the original software, till the desired software is accomplished.
Even after the user has desired software in hand, the advancing technology and the changing requirements force the software product to change accordingly. Re-creating software from scratch and to go one-on-one with requirement is not feasible. The only feasible and economical solution is to update the existing software so that it matches the latest requirements.
