Software Development

Paper Summary:

This research paper describes in depth the last two phases of the software deployment life-cycle after discussing the first of the phases of this important life cycle. Phase IV is seen as a crucial phase, in which the actual performance of the newly installed software is handled. Phase V concludes the life cycle and provides impetus for any new deployment plan in future.

From the Paper:

"In this phase, the organization may have to negotiate its deployment plan with the operations and support departments, as well as other projects that are planning to deploy the system, in order to see that the plan overall meets the requirements of the corporate deployment system. Since the new software brings change into the organization, tools of change management could be discussed and implemented in order to make the whole process relatively easy for the entire community involved in this change. (For instance, once in production, the new software system must have its installation and deinstallation procedures since there could be many changes also in the structure of the organization with people transferring, being hired, fired, etc.) At the end of this phase is the deployment plan considered fully accepted and to be launched to its completion at the date decided upon."
