Curtain Raiser\nLike any other engineering products, software products are oriented towards customers. It is either market driven or it drives the market. Customer Satisfaction was the buzzword of the 80's. Customer Delight is today's buzzword and Customer Ecstasy is the buzzword of the new millennium. Products that are not customer (user) friendly have no place in the market although they are engineered using the best technology. The interface of the product is as crucial as the internal technology of the product.\n\nMarket Research\nA market study is made to identify a potential customer's need. This process is also known as market research. Here, the already existing need and the possible/potential needs that are available in a segment of the society are studied carefully. The market study is done based on a lot of assumptions. Assumptions are the crucial factors in the development or inception of a product's development. Unrealistic assumptions can cause a nosedive in the entire venture. Though assumptions are abstract, there should be a move to develop tangible assumptions to come up with a successful product.\n\nResearch and Development\nOnce the Market study is made, the customer's need is given to the Research and Development (R&D) Department to conceptualize a cost-effective system that could potentially solve customer's needs better than the competitors. Once the conceptual system is developed and tested in a hypothetical environment, the development team takes control of it. The development team adopts one of the software development methodologies that is given below, develops the proposed system, and gives it to the customers.\n\nThe Marketing group starts selling the software to the available customers and simultaneously works in developing a niche segment that could potentially buy the software. In addition, the marketing group passes the feedback from the customers to the developers and the R&D group to make possible value additions in the product.\n\nWhile developing a software, the company outsources the non-core activities to the other companies who specialize in those activities. This accelerates the software development process largely. Some companies work on tie-ups to bring out a highly matured product in a short period.\n\nFollowing are the basic popular models used by many software development firms.\na) System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) Model\nb) Prototyping Model\nc) Rapid Application Development Model\nd) Component Assembly Model\n\nSystem Development Life Cycle Model (SDLC Model)\nThis is also known as Classic Life Cycle Model (or) Linear Sequential Model (or) Waterfall Method. This has the following activities.\n\n1. System/Information Engineering and Modeling\n2. Software Requirements Analysis\n3. Systems Analysis and Design\n4. Code Generation\n5. Testing\n6. Maintenance\nBack to top\n\n\nSystem/Information Engineering and Modeling\nAs software is always of a large system (or business), work begins by establishing requirements for all system elements and then allocating some subset of these requirements to software. This system view is essential when software must interface with other elements such as hardware, people and other resources. System is the basic and very critical requirement for the existence of software in any entity. So if the system is not in place, the system should be engineered and put in place. In some cases, to extract the maximum output, the system should be re-engineered and spruced up. Once the ideal system is engineered or tuned, the development team studies the software requirement for the system.\n\nSoftware Requirement Analysis\nThis is also known as feasibility study. In this phase, the development team visits the customer and studies their system. They investigate the need for possible software automation in the given system. By the end of the feasibility study, the team furnishes a document that holds the different specific recommendations

ImageReady from Adobe.\n\nGIF Animator is also a nice animation creation software.

Moviemaker. I recently had to do some editing, and I knew nothing about how to do it. This software was so easy it took me seconds to figure out how to do it.

There are many programs which people use to make games.\n\nSome use a commercial computer language compiler (such as C++ or Visual Basic), some use a customized compiler for their particular system (to ensure fast execution.) some will even use machine language or an assembler.\n\nyou can make your own games using game maker:\n\nhttp://www.cs.uu.nl/people/markov/gmaker/download.html

make a scripting animation program similar to flash. this is what i created for my finals project.\n\nit goes something like this: you have two separate programs, one creates, edits and compiles the script file into an object file - or animation file, as i called it. the second program then reads the animation file, and does the object/picture manipulation as defined by your script.\n\nso basically, the first program is the compiler, while the second is the animator or animation virtual machine. i dubbed it virtual machine since the object file merely contains virtual instructions that are predefined and understood by the virtual machine, and all this "machine" does is manage the multiple executing virtual threads and emulate the instructions.\n\nhope this helps... =)\n\nedit :: i used ms visual basic 6 for both the compiler program and the animator program.

Typically programs can be packaged in one of two ways. Either as source code or as binaries. \nMost proprietary software that you get off the shelf comes as a binary release only, as the vendor does not want to distribute the precious source code to their software. But many open-source applications do release their software as an alternative to binary distributions. \nSource code releases require a compiler to build the binaries before the software can be run. It is useful to hafe the source code to applications which you may be trying to run on various platforms.\nCompiled binaries can only run on the hardware/operating system for which they were compiled. This means that an binary release  compiled for a PC running Windows will not work on a PC running Linux, and certainly not on a Mac running OSX.\nIf everyone were running Windows on PC hardware, binary distributions would be the most conveniant way to distribute software, because not every machine is equipped with a compiler (and it takes alot of time to compile some things). Because the user community now runs a variety of hardware and operating systems, software releases are often distributed along side binary releases for the most common platforms.\n\nNote that this does not apply to Java. Java is truely platform independant, and compiled binaries do not differ from platform to platform.

first get a patent for a new tech .produce it give it to the testers and reanalyse it .register your product. if it is a software release a beta version and look for views then release the original version(i suppose these are logical steps)

ANSWER:  It depends on your needs.  Are you looking for a solution that helps your company with process controls, automation of product storage, or basic office tasks?  Will it need to be accessed from the web, by cellphone, or can it be done locally?  \n\nThe first thing you need to do is to sit down and find out what you are trying to accomplish, computer program notwithstanding.  For instance, do you have reports that you are contsantly being created "by hand", when it should be an automated summary provided from existing data?  Or do you have a need to assimilate data for future project forecasts?\n\nIn fact, that is my VERY business... automating processes for business.  In addition, prototyping the flow of your process is important when you want to consider different software vendors.  For instance, some programmers specialize in web design, others in data processing.  A good facilitator should be able to keep costs down and yet get you the best BANG for the buck.\n\nThe answer I have?  It's an unashamed plug for my own company, located here:\n\nhttp://www.zapdude.com\n\nThere is a phone and email contact there as well.\n\nThat is the best answer I can give you!\n\nUPDATE:  I just saw your details regarding the actual requirements.  Of course an application can be created that can meet your needs.  Ensure that any programmer you hire provides you with samples of output that you want to produce before entering a contract with him.
