The US Defense Department has planned to develop an intelligent warfighting capability by providing continuous wireless communication capability to update the current battle situation, which opens the way for the warfighters to out-smart opponents. In consideration of its importance, the Army started as a big program that contains numerous projects from small-sized tank development for fast deployment, wireless communications equipment development, software development, logistics system development, to training system development, all at once. The necessary technologies of the combined wireless communications are yet to be developed. Software development was not easy to convert the operational concept into software programming with no precedent experience.
a. In this case, what kind of problems or risks would arise as the program proceeds? b. The new warfighting concept is novel, but development details are not easy to accomplish. In this situation, what development approach or combined approach (between Traditional development, Agile Development, Prototyping, and Pilot study development in Ch13) would be appropriate? Why will it be successful and what are the drawbacks by the chosen approach?
