A recursive approach to software development
نویسندگان
چکیده
Researchers and practitioners alike agree that the waterfall approach to software development results in poor quality software systems. Unfortunately, the waterfall approach is inherently used in almost all of today’s development efforts resulting in system failures. The problem lies in the forward, linear development effort that produces inconsistent and incorrect specifications, designs, and code artifacts. It is proposed in this paper that a recursive software development process be used as a means of managing the complexity of today’s software systems. The recursive approach has the flexibility needed to perform development activities in any order to ensure that system requirements are met.

A Novel Reference Current Calculation Method for Shunt Active Power Filters using a Recursive Algebraic Approach
This paper presents a novel method to calculate the reference source current and the referencecompensating current for shunt active power filters (SAPFs). This method first calculates theamplitude and phase of the fundamental load current from a recursive algebraic approach blockbefore calculating the displacement power factor. Next, the amplitude of the reference mains currentis computed with ...
متن کاملA Recursive Approximation Approach of non-iid Lognormal Random Variables Summation in Cellular Systems
Co-channel interference is a major factor in limiting the capacity and link quality in cellular communications. As the co-channel interference is modeled by lognormal distribution, sum of the co-channel interferences of neighboring cells is represented by the sum of lognormal Random Variables (RVs) which has no closed-form expression. Assuming independent, identically distributed (iid) RVs, the...
متن کاملA New Recursive Formulation for the Mixed Redundancy Strategy in Reliability Optimization Problems
One of the common approaches for improving the reliability of a specific system is to use parallel redundant components in subsystems. This approach, which is known as the redundancy allocation problem (RAP), includes the simultaneous selection of the component type and its level for each subsystem in order to maximize the system reliability.Traditionally, there are two redundancy strategies, n...
متن کاملDeveloping Reliable yet Flexible Software through If-Then Model Transformation Rules
Developing reliable yet flexible software is a hard problem. Although modeling methods enjoy a lot of advantages, the exclusive use of just one of them, in many cases, may not guarantee the development of reliable and flexible software. Formal modeling methods ensure reliability because they use a rigorous approach to software development. However, lack of knowledge and high cost practically fo...
متن کاملDynamics of Space Free-Flying Robots with Flexible Appendages
A Space Free-Flying Robot (SFFR) includes an actuated base equipped with one or more manipulators to perform on-orbit missions. Distinct from fixed-based manipulators, the spacecraft (base) of a SFFR responds to dynamic reaction forces due to manipulator motions. In order to control such a system, it is essential to consider the dynamic coupling between the manipulators and the base. Explicit d...
