Software engineering

Software development processes utilize various models and activities to ensure the efficient creation and maintenance of software. The waterfall model involves sequential phases such as system design, implementation, and testing.

Benefits of prototyping

Reduced development effort.

Improved maintainability

Improved design quality

A closer match to users’ real needs

Improved system usability

Coping with changing requirements
Reducing the costs of rework

Spiral Model
When to use Spiral Model

Significant changes are expected

Requirements are complex.

Users are unsure of their needs.

For medium to high-risk projects.

When costs and risk evaluation is important.

Phases in spiral model

Customer evaluation

Engineering

Plan

Risk Analysis

Applications

Disadvantages

Risk assessment expertise is required.

Spiral may go indefinitely.

Process is complex

Not suitable for small or low risk projects and could be expensive for small projects

End of project may not be known early.

Advantages

Early and frequent feedback from users.

Users see the system early

Requirements can be captured more accurately.

Allows for extensive use of prototypes

Changing requirements can be accommodated
