Economic austerity
measures present significant challenges for Systems Owners tasked with
implementing fiscal constraints while managing projects aimed at rapid
development. System developers must operate within strict budget limitations
and adapt to potentially shifting requirements. The trade-off between fast
development and the necessity of adhering to austerity measures impacts many facets
of project execution. This balance can be managed through a straightforward
project-tracking approach. The waterfall life cycle model, a simple and linear
process, is suitable for managing rapid development in Non-Biological Systems.
However, the parameters of the waterfall model struggle to introduce the level
of semantic interoperability required to achieve a harmonic balance between
these competing priorities.
Observation:
The waterfall life cycle model can create invisible entities along
the evolutionary path of system performance, as shifting demands may cause the
elimination of instance parameters tied to end users.
