A software life-cycle model which supposesincremental development, using the waterfall model for eachstep, with the aim of managing risk. In the spiral model,developers define and implement features in order ofdecreasing priority.[Barry Boehm, "A Spiral Model of Software Development andEnhancement", ACM SIGSOFT Software Engineering Notes, August1986].[Barry Boehm "A Spiral Model of Software Development andEnhancement" IEEE Computer, vol.21, #5, May 1988, pp 61-72].[Better explanation?]
