International developmentInternational development or global development is a broad concept denoting the idea that societies and countries have differing levels of economic or human development on an international scale. It is the basis for international classifications such as developed country, developing country and least developed country, and for a field of practice and research that in various ways engages with international development processes. There are, however, many schools of thought and conventions regarding which are the exact features constituting the "development" of a country.
User experience designUser experience design (UX design, UXD, UED, or XD) is the process of defining the experience a user would go through when interacting with a company, its services, and its products. Design decisions in UX design are often driven by research, data analysis, and test results rather than aesthetic preferences and opinions. Unlike user interface design, which focuses solely on the design of a computer interface, UX design encompasses all aspects of a user's perceived experience with a product or website, such as its usability, usefulness, desirability, brand perception, and overall performance.
Mise en œuvreLa mise en œuvre est le fait de mettre en place un projet. En ingénierie et plus particulièrement en informatique, la mise en œuvre désigne la création d’un produit fini à partir d’un document de conception, d’un document de spécification, voire directement depuis une version originelle ou un cahier des charges. L’utilisation de l’anglicisme « implémentation », de l'anglais to implement, est courante (et acceptée).
Software development processIn software engineering, a software development process is a process of planning and managing software development. It typically involves dividing software development work into smaller, parallel, or sequential steps or sub-processes to improve design and/or product management. It is also known as a software development life cycle (SDLC). The methodology may include the pre-definition of specific deliverables and artifacts that are created and completed by a project team to develop or maintain an application.
Développement de logicielLe développement de logiciel consiste à étudier, concevoir, construire, transformer, mettre au point, maintenir et améliorer des logiciels. Ce travail est effectué par les employés d'éditeurs de logiciels, des entreprises de services du numérique (ESN), des travailleurs indépendants (freelance) et des membres de la communauté du logiciel libre. Un logiciel est créé petit à petit par une équipe d'ingénieurs conformément à un cahier des charges établi par un client demandeur ou une équipe interne.
Conception de site webLa création et la conception de site web ou web design est la conception de l'interface web : l’architecture interactionnelle, l’organisation des pages, l’arborescence et la navigation dans un site web. La conception d'un design web tient compte des contraintes spécifiques du support Internet, notamment en matière d’ergonomie, d’utilisabilité et d’accessibilité. Le web design réclame donc des compétences en programmation, en ergonomie et en interactivité, ainsi qu'une bonne connaissance des contraintes techniques liées à ce domaine.
Sociologie du développementLa sociologie du développement se questionne sur les processus de développement sociaux et économiques. Cette branche de la sociologie place ces processus en regard de ses impacts sur la société (communauté, village, ville, pays ou région). Le terme "sociologie du développement" est plus courant dans la littérature en anglais qu'il ne l'est en français. La sociologie du développement est généralement à la croisée des chemins de l'histoire, de l'anthropologie et de la science politique.
Database transactionA database transaction symbolizes a unit of work, performed within a database management system (or similar system) against a database, that is treated in a coherent and reliable way independent of other transactions. A transaction generally represents any change in a database. Transactions in a database environment have two main purposes: To provide reliable units of work that allow correct recovery from failures and keep a database consistent even in cases of system failure.
Iterative and incremental developmentIterative and incremental development is any combination of both iterative design or iterative method and incremental build model for development. Usage of the term began in software development, with a long-standing combination of the two terms iterative and incremental having been widely suggested for large development efforts. For example, the 1985 DOD-STD-2167 mentions (in section 4.1.2): "During software development, more than one iteration of the software development cycle may be in progress at the same time.
PresentThe present is the period of time that is occurring now. The present is contrasted with the past, the period of time that has already occurred, and the future, the period of time that has yet to occur. It is sometimes represented as a hyperplane in space-time, typically called "now", although modern physics demonstrates that such a hyperplane cannot be defined uniquely for observers in relative motion. The present may also be viewed as a duration.
