Collaboration Process
The initial data set in a sliced V-model are the work items of the requirement type creating a document typically called “requirements specification”. They are entered into the system by the project owner. Each
Requirement has the initial state as open. After entering the requirement, a person is assigned to refine a work item as assignee and it is the duty of the person to set the work item status to accept. This person is responsible for the content of the work item and its work flow. A document consists of a number of work items of the same time, different people can be assigned to different work items. This will reduce the work load on a single person. After having created the first draft of the requirements …show more content…

By using the sliced V-model, the meaning of these test documents changes during the project starting with the test plan (work item of test types are created and linked), changing to the test specification (detailed descriptions in the “test” work items are available), changing to the test report (test work items are set to the closed” status including the test results). This working method reduces the effort for managing the test documents enormously, since no separate documents need to be created as it used to be in the past .Each work item follows their own cycle. At the end of project lifecycle all work items in the project must have reached the final closed state. If there are dependencies with other work items then those work items also must be closed before the main work item.
Advantages
1.Sliced V- Model is flexible in time.
2. Reduced the effort of creating and updating the documentation:
3. Reduced the effort of administration of requirements traceability:
4. Distributing the software development efficiently
Disadvantages
1. If the work items are not kept up-to-date or the links between them are not set, the “V” slices break and their content is outdated. 2. Sliced V-model can be used for small software changes.

Future Work and Challenges
So far, no relevant or comparable data on time and cost savings due to the use of the sliced V-model compared to the traditional way of creating documentation has been produced. Further research work is
