French translation:modèle en cascade

Explanation:

Bonjour Yves,

"Le modèle en cascade, ou « waterfall » en anglais, est une organisation des activités d'un projet sous forme de phases linéaires et séquentielles, où chaque phase correspond à une spécialisation des tâches et dépend des résultats de la phase précédente. Il comprend les phases d'exigences, de conception, de mise en oeuvre et de mise en service. Le modèle en cascade est un cycle de vie de projet issu des industries manufacturières et du secteur de la construction, où une conception préalable est nécessaire, compte tenu des fortes contraintes matérielles et des coûts élevés afférents aux changements de la conception en cours de réalisation. Il est utilisé notamment dans le développement de logiciels."

"The waterfall model is a breakdown of project activities into linear sequential phases, where each phase depends on the deliverables of the previous one and corresponds to a specialisation of tasks. It flows through the phases of conception, initiation, analysis, design, construction, testing, deployment and maintenance.
The waterfall model originated in the manufacturing and construction industries, where the highly structured physical environments meant that design changes became prohibitively expensive much sooner in the development process. It was then adopted for software development."
