| EUP (Enterprise Unified Process) is the software development method that enables the production of software in an organised way. EUP is made up of six phrases: Inception in which the project begins and its merits looked at. Elaboration in which costs and other development issues are discussed and evaluated. Construction in which the software is created, tested and written. Transition in which the software is put on public release and any problems from the end users are noted and acted upon. Production in which the software is maintained and kept active by the developers and supporting staff. And finally retirement in which the software is decommissioned or retired and production ceases, this usually happens when a newer version is created. |
