IEEE/EIA 12207.0, "Standard for Information Technology – Software Life Cycle Processes", is a standard that establishes a common framework for software life cycle process.
This standard officially replaced MIL-STD-498 for the development of DoD software systems in May 1998.[1] Other NATO nations may have adopted the standard informally or in parallel with MIL-STD-498.
This standard defines a comprehensive set of processes that cover the entire life-cycle of a software system—from the time a concept is made to the retirement of the software.
The standard defines a set of processes, which are in turn defined in terms of activities. The activities are broken down into a set of tasks.
The processes are defined in three broad categories: Primary Life Cycle Processes, Supporting Life Cycle Processes, and Organisational Life Cycle Processes.
