| RUP (Rational Unified Process) is from Rational and is a software development process and is divided into four sections which are: Inception which is the basic idea of the project and where resources needed are drawn up. Elaboration which is where possible costs, applications of software and resources are evaluated even further. Construction which is where the software is designed and written and where the testing occurs. Transition which is when the software is made available to the public on release and any adjustments that are needed are performed. This method is very useful as it provides a clear structure to develop software without excess costs. |
