Software Engineers (a.k.a. programmers) reviewing a program. Code review (sometimes referred to as peer review) is a software quality assurance activity in which one or more people examine the source code of a computer program, either after implementation or during the development process. The persons performing the checking, excluding the ...
When performed as part of each Software development process activity, peer reviews identify problems that can be fixed early in the lifecycle. [1] That is to say, a peer review that identifies a requirements problem during the Requirements analysis activity is cheaper and easier to fix than during the Software architecture or Software testing ...
Inspection is a very formal type of peer review where the reviewers are following a well-defined process to find defects. Walkthrough is a form of peer review where the author leads members of the development team and other interested parties go through a software product and the participants ask questions and make comments about defects.
ALM is a broader perspective than the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), which is limited to the phases of software development such as requirements, design, coding, testing, configuration, project management, and change management. ALM continues after development until the application is no longer used, and may span many SDLCs.
Middleware includes web servers, application servers, content management systems, and similar tools that support application development and delivery. [4] ObjectWeb defines middleware as: "The software layer that lies between the operating system and applications on each side of a distributed computing system in a network."
In software engineering, a software development process or software development life cycle (SDLC) is a process of planning and managing software development. It typically involves dividing software development work into smaller, parallel, or sequential steps or sub-processes to improve design and/or product management .
Chimera is a software library created as a research project at UCSB for the C programming language that implements a structured, peer-to-peer routing platform to allow the easy development of peer-to-peer applications.
Peer production is also expanding beyond knowledge production, in the realm of manufacturing. [8] For example, there are now several types of open-source solar-powered 3-D printers, [9] which can be used for production in off grid locations [10] and other forms of open source appropriate technology like the use of biomaterials.
