Software Development



Software development is the collective processes involved in creating software products ie it is the process of conceiving, specifying, designing, programming, documenting, testing, and bug fixing involved in creating and maintaining applications, frameworks, or other software components.It is also known as application development or software design. It may include research, new development, prototyping, modification, reuse, re-engineering, maintenance, or any other activities that result in software products.Most methodologies share some combination of the following stages of software development:

1) Identification of required software

2) Analysis of the software requirements

3) Detailed specification of the software requirements

4) Software design

5) Programming

6) Testing

These stages are often referred to collectively as the software development lifecycle, or SDLC. Different approaches to software development may carry out these stages in different orders, or devote more or less time to different stages. SDLC methodologies support the design of software to meet a business need, the development of software to meet the specified design and the deployment of software to production.

There are several software development models

Waterfall Model: This model involves finishing each phase completely before commencing the next one. When each phase is completed successfully, it is reviewed to see if the project is on track and whether it is feasible to continue. The waterfall model, the original SDLC method, is linear and sequential.

V-Shaped Model: This model focuses on the execution of processes in a sequential manner, similar to the waterfall model but with more importance placed on testing. Testing procedures are written even before the commencement of writing code. A system plan is generated before starting the development phase.

Incremental Model: This life cycle model involves multiple development cycles. The cycles are divided up into smaller iterations. These iterations can be easily managed and go through a set of phases including requirements, design, implementation and testing. A working version of the software is produced during the first iteration, so working software is created early in the development process.

Patient who leaves the hospital after consulting doctor, diagnosis and treatment refers to outpatient. Outpatient service is an essential part for hospitals during the treatment of a patient. Outpatient module serves an entry point to take an appointment with the Consultant Doctor for Medical Consultations and diagnosis. Impression to a hospital by a patient begins at the OPD. This impression often influences the patient's sensitivity to the hospital and therefore it is essential to ensure that OPD services provide a good experience for customers. Mostly 8 to 10 per cent of OPD patients need hospitalization. Now a days it is important on continuous quality improvement, flexibility and innovation at the entry level of health service. This module supports doctors to take better and timely consultation decisions by providing instant access to comprehensive patient information. Patient visits are divided into New, Follow-up and Review. This module also handles request...

Importance of Medical Statistics

Image
Medical statistics is the study of human health and disease.Its applications ranging from biomedical laboratory research, to clinical medicine, to health promotion, to national and global systems of health care to medicine and the health sciences, including public health, forensic medicine, epidemiology and clinical research. It is a branch of statistics  commonly named as biostatistics . It is the science of summarizing, collecting, presenting and interpreting data in medical approach and using this data estimate the magnitude of associations and test hypotheses. It has a main role in medical investigations. Biostatistics has played an integral role in modern medicine.Statisticians help researchers design studies,analyze data from medical experiments, decide what data to collect, help interpret the results of the analyses, and collaborate in writing articles to describe the results of medical research. Biostatistics helps researchers make sense of the datas collected to...
