1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    The various applications that run on your computer can be called software. In order for software to function you need certain hardware and an operating system. Windows and Linux are examples of operating systems.

    There are a number of causes which lead to failure in software projects. Some of them are as follows:

    The client is unclear with his objectives. The client has opted for a software project without clearly stating his goals for doing so
    The client runs out of money while the project is being executed
    The client has employed a vendor who does not perform adequately
    The vendor loses employees while the project is being executed
    Client expectations were unrealisitic
    The vendor could not scale up in time in terms of resources
    The client kept changing specifications as the project was being executed
    The vendor did not understand the client requirements that were communicated before the project started
