Can anyone tell me the difference between method development and method validation? What are the parameters in Method Development? Can I have a typical report of method development? OR can someone show me the links that I can find it? \nThank you

Think of it like this:\n\nDevelopment - designing & building the prototypes\n\nValidation - testing in-house and sending protptypes to different places for testing\n\nA google.com search will give you dozens of sites with the details

There are more processes. Contents are more detailed. Some processes names have changes( eg Quality Assurance is nor "Perform Quality Assurance"). Some terms have changed ( eg Earned Value, Planned Value had other names in the old version). A lot of the description is much more detailed.\nThe new PMBOK also has a chapter describing in detail what all  the changes are, so you can see that there if you are interested.\n\nWhat it may mean to you practically -- the new version PMBOK(PM Book of Knowledge) has nearly DOUBLE the pages (400 +) than the older version !!!

My experience is fairly much the same as yours. Are we just weary or is Database really difficult, or at least more difficult than the other modules. Perhaps a bit of both.\nIt will be interesting to see what other people think...

Your program is only a good as the documentation. Your program may be a work of art, but if it is not documented properly, then it will not achieve it's full potential. It is the same with any system design.  If it is not documented properly, or is not worded in plain english, then\nthe entire system suffers.

totally agree with tgypoi on this.  And when i give answers on here i tend to try and give the method or give a different example so that the person actually has to think about how its done rather than just copying.  But dude you have pasted about 20 questions or something on here. you cant expect someone to answer all your questions....

have u started programming? if not try to do it for ur self, but still if u have errors post ur code here, then can try to debug it for u..but cant simply write a full program just like that. sorry!

you can develope software in many ways.\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_development_model

This involves years and years of development and testing, and unfortunately it can't be stated in just a few paragraphs in a forum like this. I suggest doing some research online for "FDA Approval Process" and "Guidelines," as the paperwork available for this is somewhere in the thousands of pages.

That's an excellent and thought-provoking question (and I liked your commentary, as well). In fairness, I think the YA team are pretty well aware of what's working and not working, and they're doubtless tweaking and/or contemplating tweaking the site all the time. But it's obviously helpful to put together a thoughtful question or comment, as you have here, to add to the discussion.\n\nIn answer to your primary question, I personally think it should be a bit of both: positive interaction and striving for quality in the Q&A. I see nothing wrong with healthy debate and polite exchanges (and no, I do not view this as "chat" and "noise" as some sticklers seem to do). However, I can also see the need for quality control in terms of the acceptability of questions and answers. \n\nI suppose if I were on the YA team my attitude would be as follows: When I see members leaving comments for each other that are clearly relevant to the Q&A exchange they're participating in, I would definitely leave it be. There is no harm in civil dialogue and I think we need to accept the human element here. We're all individuals, all human, so we have different ways of expressing ourselves -- but we do feel the need to do just that: express ourselves. We're not automotons, we're flesh and blood. So as long as it's not like literal chat (i.e., "Hey TommyBoy, are you coming to my party?" or "What's your email address, SuzieQ? You're hot!") but rather an exchange of comments that are germane to the ongoing "conversation" that is in fact the Q&A, I see zero problem with that. \n\nOtherwise, quality control should be more about determining what is and isn't a legitimate question. "Am I cute?" is obviously not. But I think "What would you consider to be attractive in a woman?" is a legitimate question. See the difference? The dificulty comes in the fact that there are so many questions being submitted every second (it seems) of every day. I imagine any efforts at quality control must be nightmarishly taxing on those who have to do it. So I think it's nice if we all try to be responsible with our submissions to make their jobs easier. \n\nMea culpa: I haven't done that every time, myself, and I'm anything but proud of that fact (extreme provocation notwithstanding). But I've apologized to those who deserved to receive an apology and I've pledged to stay on the straight and narrow for the remainder of my time here (how ever long that is). Consider me properly chastened.\n\nNow, if I could only learn to answer questions more concisely... ;)

There is not one specific Test Case Format, it really depends upon the standards of who you are doing it for.  Every company has their own standards.\n\nHowever, just for reference, I would suggest the following format:\n\n1. Test Condition Description:  A short synopsis of what you are trying to test (and always test for things to FAIL as well as to work)\n\n2. Test Steps: This should be a list of detailed steps to follow in order to complete the test.  This includes all the setup required to get to that point.  If you want to test a program that is printing an invoice, for example...  part of the test case has to be creating the order/invoice in the software and getting it ready to be processed.\n\n3.  Expected Results:  This is a description of what SHOULD happen when the Test Case is run.  Some people like to put expected results after every step of the Test Case, while others put one Expected Result after all the steps have been run through.  It all depends on how detailed of a process you want the testing to be.\n\n4.  Actual Results:  This is a section where the person testing the Application writes in the actual results.  Sometimes they match the expected results, sometimes they don't.  If the two do not match, then it must be determined if it is a bug or the Test Case was written incorrectly.  Actual Results should come after all Expected Results (so if you are doing Expected for each step in the Test Case, you have to do Actual for each step as well)\n\n5.  Pass/Fail/Status:  Finally, I suggest a status on the Test Case.  This should indicate if the Test Case was Passed or if it Failed.  Depending upon the complexity of your application, you could have other statuses such as Passed with Conditions (like a message has a typo, but they don't want to retest this just because you have to change the wording of a message) or Failed Pending Review (they think it failed, but there will be a meeting to discuss if the bugs are critical).\n\nFinally, I think it's important to note that you have a Test Plans and Test Cases.  Test Cases are every single situation you want to test.  You can write general ones like "Add a Customer" to just see if functionality works, then you should have detailed ones that test specific functionality.  Remember, part of Testing is trying to BREAK the software, not prove it works.  So, some Test Cases may involve "bang on keyboard" or steps that you KNOW are wrong, but a typical user might do.\n\nThe Test Plan is an assembly of different Test Cases.  You can have a Test Cases that do some pre-setup of data and include those FIRST in your Test Plan so you don't have to include this setup in every single Test Case.\n\nRemember to be thorough, that is the most important part.  Think of EVERYTHING.  That is what makes Application Testing so difficult... there is no way that you can test every single situation, but test the most likely ones.  Test the limits too.  If you can enter a value from 0-100, test 0, 1, 99, 100, -1, and 101 as well as things in between.  Those are the most likely areas for bugs.

A quotation by Harvey J Gold, Author of Mathematical Modelling of Biological Systems,  may go towards assisting your analysis of the situation:\n\n" The result of a mathematical development should be continuously checked against one's own intuition about what constitutes reasonable biological behaviour. Whenever such a check reveals disagreement, the following possibilities must be considered:\n\na : A mistake has been made in the formal mathematical development\n\nb: The starting assumptions are incorrect and/or constitute a too drastic oversimplification\n\nc: One's own intuition about the biological field is inadequately developed.\n\nd: A penetrating new principle has been discovered. "\n\nDo let me know whether you found meaning in the above, and if you did analyse your model based on the checks recommended by him, what among a,b,c,d was the reason of the discrepancy. Of course this is assuming that you have already established the discrepancy beyond doubt.

Norliza, I wish I could give you a specific, up-t0-date answer. Unfortunately, I do not have my texts with me here. I suggest that you search for texts that deal with an overview of language methodologies. Look up "language methods" or "language methodologies". Go into the main language publication companies such as Heinle and Heinle, Cambridge Books; Oxford Texts. I also suggest the following texts: "Innovative Approaches to Language Teaching" by R. Blair, 1982 (It's an old text but should contain direct method) and "Making it Happen: Interaction in the second language classroom" by P.S. Richard-Amato, 1988. You also might check the authors Richards and Omaggio. I wish I could give you more up to date references, but these are the ones I used when I did my degree. All the best in your TESOL work.

This is not a direct question, its a complete development effort, so I'm only going to say that for me RUP is the best approach.\nBy the way if this is a real-life problem why don't you try sharepoint and office 2003 instead of writing it :)

goto this site for VB.Net and C# :\nhttp://www.samspublishing.com/articles/article.asp?p=31560&seqNum=1&rl=1\n\ntry to find for ASP in internet, i'm too sleepy right now.\n\nbtw, why didn't you open the sample source code from VB and ASP, there's must be a sample source code with 2 or more form.

Hi Sam,\n\nIf you're new to programming - but want a really robust solution - you should really check out Servoy. With Servoy you can deploy via client/server AND/OR the web at the same time from the same code base.\n\nThe programming language can be either JavaScript or inline Java - and there is a object model tree and you can double-click to create code. Also, there are "samples" for each of the available functions that will all work with a single click - so you can learn as you go.\n\nIt has point-and-click form control, and you can create relations between different tables (and even between different SQL database engines) with a few clicks - WITHOUT having to know any SQL programming.\n\nYou can have people log in without them having to install anything, and if, down the road, you want to offer offline capabilities - that's available as well.\n\nI would stay away from desktop database products like FileMaker, Access, etc. because they use proprietary databases, don't scale, are a NIGHTMARE to update on the client side, and are difficult to maintain.\n\nJust my $0.02 worth - I hope this helps.
