SE Course: Ch.2: SW Dev. Process - part 4: Integration and configuration Model

Description :

The Integration and Configuration Model is a software development approach that focuses on reusing existing software components or systems to build a new application. Instead of developing everything from scratch, this model emphasizes integrating pre‑built components and configuring them to meet specific requirements. This approach can significantly reduce development time, cost, and risk. Key activities in this model include identifying reusable components, refining requirements to fit the selected components, integrating the components into a cohesive system, and customizing them to meet specific needs. While this model offers advantages in terms of speed and cost, it can be limited by the availability of suitable components and the need for significant customization in some cases.
