The knowledge zone gives you an insight to some significant areas in the world of IT. Lifecycles, Design Principles, Databases and Domain Names are just a few. But we hope to add further areas of information in the coming future.

We start off by looking at the Software Lifecycle which can be seen on the right and is the basis on which all IT or web based systems are developed.

Software Lifecycle

A lifecycle is the skeleton of the development of information systems, applications or websites. The life cycle will determine the order of stages involved in the development and establishes the transition criteria for progression from one stage to the next.

A methodology is used throughout the lifecycle which incorporates various tools used at different stages of the lifecycle. UML (Unified Modeling Language) and SSADM (Structured Systems Analysis and Design) are two examples of such methodologies.

By following the lifecycle model and using various tools from methodologies an efficient and robust solution will be developed, one to your specified requirements. If the application has been designed well then it will be easy to learn, effective to use and will provide an enjoyable user experience.
