Abstract

The selection of a software development life cycle (SDLC) model for a software project is highly dependent upon the characteristics of the software product to be developed. We classified software products according to characteristics that matter for SDLC selection. We surveyed literature to elicit recommendations for SDLC selection. We formalized our findings to present a rule based recommendation system that can be helpful to software developers in selecting the most appropriate SDLC model to be used for the development of a software product. We conducted an initial evaluation of our system. We believe our SDLC recommendation system provides useful hints for selecting an SDLC, and provides a base for validating and refining SDLC recommendation rules.
