Hi,
It depends what you are working on - is it just a simple project or is it something larger?
If it is something reasonably large, then you should probably call it "Software Development Process", rather than just a "Software Project'. There is a lot of literature about this, but a good place to start is:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_development_process
If the project is fairly simple, then it is probably enough to gather and analyse the requirements, produce a design, implement and test. Again, you can probably start with Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_design
