It is to everyone's benefit when software project turnaround times are short, whilst the quality remains high. That is why ETHALON sets store in the standardized IBM Rational Unified Process (RUP) and IBM Rational development tools! RUP forms a customizable framework for the entire software development process.
Iterative software development
Requirements management
Component-based architectures
Visual software modeling
Continual monitoring of software quality
Controlled change management
The Unified Process divides the software development process into separate disciplines as well as four phases, within which all the disciplines run through separate iterations. The diagram shows the main points for each discipline within the phases.
