ISO/IEC 12207 - Primary Lifecycle Processes

Primary Lifecycle Processes

The primary lifecycle processes contain the core processes involved in creating a software product. These processes are divided into six different main processes:

  • Acquisition
  • Supply
  • Development
  • Operation
  • Maintenance
  • Destruction

Because the primary lifecycle processes cover a very large area a scope was defined. This entry explains all the primary lifecycle processes but will explain the Acquisition and Development processes more extensively.

Famous quotes containing the words primary and/or processes:

    The primary imperative for women who intend to assume a meaningful and decisive role in today’s social change is to begin to perceive themselves as having an identity and personal integrity that has as strong a claim for being preserved intact as that of any other individual or group.
    Margaret Adams (b. 1916)

    All the followers of science are fully persuaded that the processes of investigation, if only pushed far enough, will give one certain solution to each question to which they can be applied.... This great law is embodied in the conception of truth and reality. The opinion which is fated to be ultimately agreed to by all who investigate is what we mean by the truth, and the object represented in this opinion is the real.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
