Software Maintenance Life Cycle Model
Proceedings. International Conference on Software Maintenance (Cat. No. 98CB36272), 2002The Software Maintenance Life Cycle Model (SMLC) was developed providing a basis to help software maintenance planning. The management framework was developed based on the SMLC concept to operationalize the model. This paper provides results from two cases to validate the model and the framework.

A Life Cycle Model of Virtual Communities
2009 42nd Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 2009The importance of virtual communities is well established in Information Systems (IS) research. A significant number of studies on this topic have focused on investigating motivators and inhibitors of members participation. However, virtual communities are not static, but dynamically evolve, and often die to be replaced by other virtual communities.

The Triangular Life Cycle Model
2009The waterfall life cycle model suffers from a number of problems but in spite of this, it continues to be the most widely used life cycle model. A different life cycle approach is proposed that emphasizes the product life cycle rather than the project life cycle, quality management priorities rather than project management priorities and views of ...
