Agile vs RUP 

Hi Everyone

Can you please explain me the difference between Agile and RUP methodology?

In which kind of business/organizations RUP is used?

Thanks

Re: Agile vs RUP 

Hi:

Maybe a little confusion on terms here.  Agile is basic guidelines on how to do a software project.    There is something called Agile Modeling, but, to my understanding, it  is general guidelines that do not specify specific modeling techniques.

RUP is largely a commercial implementation of the UML modeling techniques.  

RUP (i.e., the UML) is for object oriented projects.   And object oriented technqiues can be used on just about all software projects.   When Agile Modeling involves UML techniques, RUP can be used employed (but does not have to).

Recipe Redesign: There Is No Box, Only Possibilities

I learned from my Grandma June and her kitchen was her sanctuary, a small, warm sunlit space filled with jars of spices, stacks of cookbooks, and the comforting smell of something always on the stove or baking in the oven. Grandma June was as great a cook as she was a teacher to me. She never followed a recipe “to...
