PAPER TITLE: INDUSTRY EVOLUTION PAPER SUBTITLE: FRAGMENTED INDUSTRY AND CONSOLIDATED INDUSTRY 1.0 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to know the industries grow through a series of stages from growth through maturity to decline. The industry life cycle is useful for explaining and expecting trends among the six forces that drive industry competition. There are two types of industry which are fragmented industry and consolidated industry. Fragmented industry occurs when the people

Safety-critical software and life critical software means that any malfunction of the software will very probably result in extreme consequence and even loss of human life. Organisation developing such systems ought to exercise extreme caution against system failure (Nilsen‚ 2004). Tavani (2007) emphasize the importance of industry wide standard for design and development of such artefacts to assure the reliability and safety towards society. Additionally‚ most industries are closely regulated by

Software Piracy: A Worldwide Problem Software piracy is defined as the illegal copying of software for commercial or personal gain. Software companies have tried many methods to prevent piracy‚ with varying degrees of success. Several agencies like the Software Publishers Association and the Business Software Alliance have been formed to combat both worldwide and domestic piracy. Software piracy is an unresolved‚ worldwide problem‚ costing millions of dollars in lost revenue. Software companies

SOFTWARE TESTING Q4. (a) Is functional testing sufficient to determine code coverage? Answer: No‚ functional testing is not sufficient to determine code coverage. In testing when we refer to code coverage we are talking about how much of the code is being covered/executed/tested during test execution. So the goal behind code coverage is to determine areas that are not being tested and creating tests that can cover these gaps. Structural and functional testing can be used to determine

Software Metric Software metric is a measure of some property of a piece of software or its specifications. Since quantitative measurements are essential in all sciences‚ there is a continuous effort by computer science practitioners and theoreticians to bring similar approaches to software development. The goal is obtaining objective‚ reproducible and quantifiable measurements‚ which may have numerous valuable applications in schedule and budget planning‚ cost estimation‚ quality assurance testing

Evolution of Software The Early Years (50’s – 60’s) * This generation was characterized by Batch orientation‚ limited distribution‚ and customization of software. * In Batch Processing‚ the system handles an entire sequence of jobs together‚ often with little or no human intervention. * Also‚ as computers were not widely used at that time‚ only in scientific and military institutions‚ software could be highly customized since distribution was limited. Job mobility was low‚ and the
