Abstract

With the evolution of different software development models over the past years, it became a topic of utmost interest to categorize and segregate them depending upon the applications, advantages and disadvantages. There are various factors that affect the projects. They should also be taken care of when we select a development model. Many software projects fail due to reasons like an unskilled developer, time limit, poor quality, less user involvement and much more. Software development models should be selected wisely looking at the conditions and quality of the developer, user, time and complexity of the project. All these factors play a vital role in the success of the project. Models can be categorized as lightweight models and heavyweight models. This paper discusses various models on different metrics with pros and cons of each of them and also help us select an appropriate model depending on the project.
