| Joint application development (JAD) - | (Software Engineering) a specific FAST technique |
| Levels of abstraction - | (Software Engineering) the degree of detail with which some representation of the software is presented |
| Load testing - | (Software Engineering) a testing task that determines how software (often a WebApp) will respond to various loading conditions |
| Make-buy decision - | (Software Engineering) determining whether software should be built internally, acquired, contracted or built from reusable components |
