Abstract
In recent years, SaaS (Software-as-a-service) software is becoming more and more popular, and it may gradually take the place of traditional software. Therefore, having an overview of the SaaS software lifecycle is critical for corporations to make strategic choices to keep their competitiveness in the software industry. However, the existed software lifecycle models are most for traditional software and the amount of researches done about SaaS software lifecycle to date can be considered little. In this paper, we will propose a SaaS lifecycle model based on roles and activities. It is deduced through a clustering algorithm based on the data produced by a simulating system which adopts intelligent agent technology.
