tailieunhanh - Entretian model for software maintenance

This model overcomes certain misconceptions about maintenance phase and it is highly beneficial to the Maintenance Support Team (MST) to handle their maintenance activities systematically and efficiently. By employing the proposed model, the MST is able to overcome the technical and managerial issues that are faced earlier in the maintenance phase. The advantage of using “Entretian Model” is best illustrated in this paper with the help of the ERP package. | ISSN:2249-5789 Priya K Betala et al , International Journal of Computer Science & Communication Networks,Vol 3(4),276-283 Entretian Model for Software Maintenance Priya K Betala Department of Computer Science, Vaishnav College For Women kpriyapari@ Soniya Jhamad Department of Computer Science, Vaishnav College For Women Sakthi Kumaresh Asso. Prof, Dept of Computer Science, MOP Vaishnav College for Women, Chennai, India sakthimegha@ Abstract Maintenance refers to the act of modifying the software after putting in use in order to maintain its usability.[1]. In other words, Software maintenance can be defined as; it is the process of providing services to the customers after the delivery of the software. Despite the fact that maintaining software is very challenging, it is the most important routine that must be carried out in the development cycle. If the software is not maintained efficiently it may lead to the death of the software. Maintenance of software may be carried out in two ways. The first one is called „In-house maintenance‟ and the second one is called „Transition maintenance‟. The latter faces the drastic challenges when compared to former, as one team may not provide complete source code to the other, leading to unstructured code, lack of appropriate technique and knowledge about the functioning of the current software. There are a few aspects of software maintenance that set it apart from the other phases. Software maintenance cost comprises more than half of the total software development cost. Also, without software maintenance, it is impossible to change the problems within the product after its release, and many disasters can happen because of immature software. Recognising the importance of software maintenance, this paper proposes a model called “ENTRETIAN MODEL” (Entretian, a French word meaning Maintenance) which consists of six basic steps to follow while maintaining software .
