SUMMARY

SUMMARY

  • The Rational Unified Process is a software development process covering the entire software development lifecycle.

  • It is a process product that brings a wealth of knowledge, always up-to-date, to the developer's workstation, in the form of an "e-coach," or electronic coach.

  • It embeds guidance on many modern techniques and approaches: object technology and component-based development, modeling and UML, architecture, iterative development, and so on.

  • It is not a frozen product; rather, it is alive , constantly maintained , and continuously evolving.

  • It is based on a solid process architecture, and that allows a development organization to configure and tailor it to suit its needs.

  • It supports our six best practices for software development:

    1. Develop software iteratively.

    2. Manage requirements.

    3. Use component-based architectures.

    4. Visually model software.

    5. Continuously verify software quality.

    6. Control changes to software.

  • It is supported by an extensive palette of tools developed by Rational Software.
