| Many
software systems are developed with respect to tight deadlines.
These tight deadlines are determined by a need to respond to
rapid changes in the market place. The rate of change in the
business environment continues to increase to a level where
existing development approaches and environments are unable
to respond effectively.
The
Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM) is a Rapid Application
Development (RAD) method. It is applicable to those considering
how to improve their time to delivery without endangering
the quality of their systems It recommends the application
of a series of principles, which provide a fast and effective
way to develop systems within limited deadlines and manpower
resources. It is available in the public domain and is being
considered the de facto standard for RAD. It has become very
popular since it was first launched in January 1995, and is
now in use in organisations in the UK, Ireland and a number
of mainland European countries, the USA, India and Australia.
