11. Software Production 0721330 11 Inherent Problems with Software Development  Requirements are complex  The client does not know the functional requirements in advance  Requirements may be changing  Technology enablers introduce new possibilities to deal with requirements  Frequent changes are difficult to manage  There is more than one software system  New system must be backward compatible with existing system (“legacy system”)  Phased development: Need to distinguish between the system under development and already released systems  This leads us to software life cycle modeling
