Activities under RUP Inception Phase

There are number of activities under RUP inception phase. These activities are derived from the industrial best practices involved in software development.

The activities are as follows:

1. Conceive new project
2. Prepare Project Environments
3. Prepare Environment for an Iteration
4. Define Project Plans
5. Monitor and control project
6. Manage the scope of the system
7. Define the system
8. Perform Architectural Synthesis
9. Define Evaluation mission
10. Manage Iteration
11. Plan for next Iteration

One can select any of these activities and design a workflow using these activities. The selection of the activities must be done on the requirements of the project. I will be discuss these activities individually in coming posts.

The Business Case artifact discussed in the previous post is an artifact developed and used in first activity i.e. Conceive New Project.
