DESIGN AND METHODOLOGY This chapter presents the modified waterfall method that includes requirements analysis, requirement documentation, design of software, development testing, and implementation. Figure 3.1 shows how the proposed system provides inf

The waterfall model is a linear and sequential approach to software development in which the project progresses through distinct phases. Each phase serves as a foundation for the next, with defined outputs that act as inputs for subsequent stages. In this model, the project moves through a cascade of steps—each clearly defined and non-overlapping—as it transitions from one phase to the next. The classic phases of the waterfall model typically include requirements analysis, system design, implementation, testing, deployment, and maintenance, ensuring that each aspect of the system is thoroughly addressed before proceeding to the following stage. This structured approach emphasizes the completion of one phase before initiating the next, leading to a clear and logical progression throughout the software development life cycle.
