system development methodologies this course structure is based on different methodologies and it revolves around them.

Each methodology can be used in different situations and circumstances in project for their success rate to develop and launch in the market.

in this blog i want to reflect my view on how i am know after learning, knowing about this course.

What i liked about this course

i am very excited when we discussed about the rich pictures and when we are performing the activity in teams me and my teammates put our effort to draw our first rich picture and presented it.

now, i know a clear view on agile, scrum, waterfall methodology and how to impliment them in future projects.

i learned more about the rich pictures and i know now how to draw them with all the information.

what i didnt like?

in particular i am happy with most of the topics i have learned which can be helpful with projects and other courses as well like project management and research methods.

i felt more trouble in figuring out my assessment 2 where i have to find a failure project and implement method and methodology. i am in very confused state where and how to implement my views on methods in my assesment.

What should be changed and how?

i feel like we are focusing on mainly 2-3 methodologies but we have to conduct activities on small methodologies like lean methodology so, students will be more focusing on all methodologies rather than agile, devops methodology in their projects.

special sessions are to be conducted for each methodology and discuss their advantages and disadvantages and do some activity.

Genfosis learning platform

review my rich picture and share your views

“Thank for reading my blog”

As we all know we are going through every week blogs on various interesting topics on methods, methodologies, soft systems, etc…

all class mates are sharing their ideas , knowledge and my tutor are clarifying our doubts which helps us understand the topics and subject as well.

Applying methodology is very important in doing any project either it is small or big.

As i have following Mahesh, vishwat Goutami, and balaji Blogs i came across some interesting points on their choosing favourite methodologies. they have explained very clearly pros and crons on their respective methodology.

Vishwat detailed version on his assignment 3 is very interesting and it can be a helpful platform in New Zealand where is no good platform which can helpful in providing space for startup companies where they cant afford their own offices.

as i have gone through some blogs it doesnt mean other classmates blogs are not good each and every individual has their own perspective and their point to the topic.

Why choose This?

I choose learning course platform project for my assignment 3. there are several E-platform learning web-sites. the platform i want to create are based on Byju’s learning application which is mantained in India.

Idea..?

the idea of the learning course platform is to go through remote areas back in various small parts of the country. to make this application or website to be free for the school educational system. In the minimum time frame our project goal is to develop a central platform where we can create, train, develop tutorials.

In this one of our main goal is to maintain our software, servers which we are using and to engage all times with fully skilled developers for testing and security for the application.

Tools used?

there are many tools we can use for this platform. we are going to use after effects for shooting our tutorials. this is one of the best tool for making motion graphics.

Methodology about to use?

the methodology which i am going to explain in assignment 3 is Dev-ops. there will be each and every detail recorded in the system. each user will receive a work space and permit card. the system will be working on both end user and customers to improve their learning time and work space comfortable. it will take minimum of 2 years to create the stable and beneficiable site for the customers.

I will be posting more details on my methodology and methods in my assignment 3.

Soft system methodology can be known as SSM. SSM can be used in scenarios where in response to need or problem because you can analyse the problem and create the response accordingly. It is represented by the use of ‘ rich pictures’ and CATWOE. It tries to solve problems by not only looking at problem but looking at entire situation.

What SSM Interventions include?

Taking actions depending on the previous information gathered.

thinking about different systems which could not be employed in the situation.

locate the position like NMIT Technical institute ( Example in class)

measuring the different aspects in the system.

When we have a group problem or the stakeholders disagreement then we can use SSM interventions to solve the situation.

Can Soft System Methodology be useful within IT?

yes, i definitely say that SSM can be used in the IT field because it has the ability to solve the critical problems to finding best solutions. SSM is designed to solve these complexity problems in the IT. Rich pictures help us to identify and functions of the system in the effective way. once the problems are identified by rich pictures in the field of IT then we can follow the steps of SSM to solve it. Using rich pictures are very easy and they are very efficient. it provides a better understanding to find out the solution.

STEPS OF SSM

step 1: find out the problem
step 2: write down the problem
step 3: formulating system and thinking about the problem
step 4: understand the problem
step 5: building the conceptual idea to solve the problem
step 6: compare the problems and ideas
step 7:define possible changes and recommend operations.

SSM in NMIT Technical

last class we discussed about Rich pictures, and we have used NMIT as example in the reich pictures. In this we have both international and domestic students, tutors,staff members,CEO of nmit,etc.. are affected by SSM. it is a complex problem of nmit to reach everyone in the organization. so, SSM provides the clear structure by breaking them down. the developed structure can later be discussed with NMIT and then come up with a solution.

Before discussing about my favorite methodology i will talk about the presentations given by my classmates and my team itself.

every one explained well and my team explained very important methodologies agile, lean and scrum methodology which are big and very stable methodologies. every team did their research and presented point to point in easy manner where every individual can understood. they followed the topic very clearly and in mean time my tutor added some key points and discussed them along with the teams.

these are power points that we presented on the last class

DEVOPS METHODOLOGY

this methodology is presented by one of the class members which i totally impressed and i liked it very much due to its functions. let’s discuss in detail below

Devops is a software development methodology that combines software development with information technology in the entire service lifecycle, from design to the product delivers.

It provides continuous delivery with high software quality.

It key features are to reduce failure in the new release and if so fixes in a short time.

many of the tools used in the Devops are comes from agile methodology.

the steps of Devops methodology are plan, code, build, test, package, release, operate, monitor.

in this continuous integration is done and they enquire about all the new releases and they make sure any changes to be done or to be adjusted according to the suggestions they redevelop and tested continuously. after the execution they move out in delivery immediately.

out in the world there are very small number of companies that use this methodology like netflix, amazon, google.

Netflix is one of the reason to chose this methodology because i am literally addicted to netflix in past week.

In my future i like to settle down as IT developer and by learning Devops it tightens the alignment between IT operations and businesses.

METAPHOR

It is a representation that can describe a person or object with similar characteristics. it can change the perspective of a sentence. generally it carries a meaning of one word into another. metaphors are used in day-to-day life to convey their meaning and thoughts to others in tinkable way.

Some problems arise with metaphors?

i) they break the cultural and social protocals.

ii) sometimes we face problem with users metaphors.

iii) some terms does limit the imagination.

Example – life is a journey.

Computer metaphors?

computer programs are very complex and theoretical so, we use a tool to understand them called metaphors. there are lot of metaphors in computer language. it is easy to convey the meaning by using metaphors.

Example of computer metaphor- Programmers organizing data regularly speak of stacks, queues, trees, pipes, and streams.

There are two types of computer metaphors thet are:

1. GUI metaphors
2. Software metaphors.

General metaphors

basically they are normal metaphors which are used in a daily base in life. they are defines very close to metaphors. they are used to communicate and transfer one meaning to another. issues are they limit the imagination of the user. some times they distract the topic information.

Example – war is the mother of all battles.

How metaphors means for our IT specialist?

In IT we use a lot of computing metaphors. in fact the use of metaphors made IT industry easy to understand today. they helps to stimulate the imagination when working on IT design.

for example- in the cloud services we configure two networks and allow them to communicate in between two data streams and they transfers data, store data, and accessible anywhere in the world. in this “cloud” can be understood by every IT professional and can relate the information and where as in reality and in general cloud means state of gloom, trouble, or problem.

Describe and analyze a puzzle, problem and mess…?

puzzle

a puzzle is a well structured problem which is tricky and has a solution which can worked in a systematic way in particular steps to reach it. you can apply various patterns to achieve goal in this but can only possible in one-way. puzzles are always fixed so, these things are solved.

example- i am doing a course named cloud services in which i can relate my software installations into puzzle in which they are in certain steps to be followed and by not doing it we get errors and cannot be solved or installed.

problem

problem are not easy to solve because they do have structure but they don’t have any common goals , they can’t be predicted and they are not easy to solve. problems goals are un-predicted even though we can negotiate and find a solution which majority of the people agree. to make a solution for a problem we can go through various parameters but you can not find it quickly, it takes time and research to do that.

example- you are doing a project and you got to know there is a problem occurred and you are going to solve the issue by intimating to your client and researching about the problem and solving it by best method possible and this solves only part of client goals in project.

mess

basically mess is set of problems which have problems! in this we cant even define a problem and what are the goals. mess can look like a problem but it actually a mess. it can be solved but as of problem it can be having various outcomes and in some cases it is very hard find solutions which can be agreed. once you find a mess first you have to try and make that into problem if not the project is lost even before started. if you can find set of agreeable solutions to the project it has hope to be completed.

example- “my room is messy” this statement is very simple but in this there is defining of problem. there are no requirements for stating the solution.

system development methodologies is used to form, plan, structure and control the process of development since it is impossible to start a project. It makes easier to process by using particular or specific techniques to obtain it. the main goal of SYD is to maintain quality and control of the system.

methodology, method and tools

methodology is used to state how the research is to be done and in the beginning of the project. in this we are going through all the methods possible for the project and pre-select the method and we proceed with our research.

method is general guidelines which can find answers for our project or for our research questions or for to conduct a research for a particular topic. in methodology there involves many combined methods.

tools are used to assist or support the methodology.

IT AND NON IT SYSTEMS

IT SYSTEMS	NON IT SYSTEMS
WATERFALL METHODOLOGY	SOCIAL METHODOLOGY
AGILE METHODOLOGY	POLITICAL METHODOLOGY
DEV OPS	MILKY WAY

waterfall methodology

waterfall moves in a linear fashion hopping there won’t be any change in plan and they move step by step from start to reaching customer requirements and it is basic standard methodology for beginners in developing a project or system. one of the tool used for waterfall methodology is gantt chart.

devops methodology

this methodology is used to combine the software and information systems in complete service lifecycle. and its main purpose is to continuously update the system in a loop by constantly knowing the requirements of customers and to maintain high quality. tools used for devops are docker,jenkins.

 what you can do now in terms of Systems Development ?

i) it helps me to design my project in semester 2 properly and with more clarity.

ii)if i got any problem in approaching or executing my work in project i can easily solve the problem.

iii) the project can continuosly re-corrected until it is perfected.

iv) to meet the required deliverables in time, i can manage my project work properly.

In future…!

i) to get larger overview of methodologies.

ii) these skills can help me to project my final project in next semester with much clarity

iii) it can help me in any other projects that i can take on future.

iv)how to use methods and tools to the required scenario in effective way.
