what are the essential stages in project management ?
I am a developer.I have been searching for essential stages in development projects. I have searched alot of forums but didn't get the answer. I hope any tech developer can help me in resolving the issue.
No. I mean there is no general answer. It depends on a lot of things, like: size, functionality, safety, type of customers (like companies or individuals), the used hardware, complexity and also several other aspects should be taken into account...
There are entire books on software project management ... one was written by a friend of mine ... but almost none of them seriously take on the intrinsic complexity of software. (My friend's e-book, Managing the Mechanism, is based on the critical observation that computer software is, in fact, "an autonomous machine.")
A project manager's role is often to facilitate communication, both within the team(s) and between the team(s) and the sponsoring organization.

that's "essential stages in development projects" (your apparent question, no quotes) at g00gle and found enough to give you a good start.
And some advice:
Project Management is not an Android "thing.".
Any body can learn "Project Management", but the pending question is "Are you organized?".
It is its own entity. Distinguished from every other skill one could hope to possess.
I have to "re-think" my "Project Management" almost yearly. But I just geek out over
namespaces in my wikis.
Good thing I'm also somewhat organized.
zim-wiki for your own personal "Project Management" of Project Management topics.
dokuwiki for the front-end.

I'm not sure that I've seen evidence that you are a developer or that you've searched or reviewed any references. You're asking repeated, insufficient questions on the forums. Suggest you refrain from that practice, it merely wastes time, yours and ours. We may offer some "first level" suggestions, but given unclear questions, we'll usually challenge them, some will offer a bit of humor, so while we'll have a bit of a laugh, the bottom line is if you are serious then you should approach this seriously an illustrate your thinking on these topics other than "someone tell me the answers because I'm asking politely ..." tactic.
One thing that my friend's e-book really pointed out was that "conventional" project-management techniques really don't apply to software, because software is "a machine." It is not a human process: it is an automaton.Either the set of instructions given to the computer is entirely complete and correct, or it is not. Ordinary project-management stratagems are not prepared to deal with that.
When "physical machinery" is built, rigid controls on project management and execution are followed. But physical machinery has a very limited degree of internal complexity. The internal complexity of a software machine, on the other hand, is "infinite."
Software projects are often pragmatically done "by the seat of the pants," using "the cheapest labor possible." The failure is pre-ordained.
