A Comparative Study of Various Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) Models

Abstract

In the software industry, the software development life cycle (SDLC) is used to design, develop, and produce high-quality, dependable, cost-effective, and on-time software products. This is also known as a model of the software development process. There are several SDLC process models to choose from. In this work, I've attempted to define various SDLC models in terms of their greatest applications. There have been numerous papers written in this area. In this work, I shall also make advantage of their information or findings. The major goal of this paper is to explain some of the most prominent SDLC models, such as Waterfall, Iterative, Spiral, V-Model, Big Bang, Agile, Rapid Application Development Model, and Software Prototype. The major goal of this paper is to describe the benefits and drawbacks of each option.
