AGENDA
 Spiral Model
 Key Characteristics
 Advantages
 Disadvantages
 When to Use
SPIRAL MODEL

 A software development model


that essentially combines
Waterfall and Iterative models.
 It was first introduced by Barry
Boehm in 1986.
 The Spiral Model is characterized
by its emphasis on risk analysis
and management throughout the
software development lifecycle.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS:

1. Iterative approach: The Spiral Model is based on an iterative approach,


where the project is divided into smaller cycles or spirals.

2. Risk-driven: The model is risk-driven, meaning that the level of risk


determines the number of spirals and the level of retail in each spiral.
3. PHASES OF SPIRAL MODEL

 Planning
 Risk Analysis
 Engineering
 Evaluation
PHASES

 Planning: Define the goals and objectives for the spiral.


 Risk Analysis: Identify and evaluate the risks associated with
the spiral.
 Engineering: Develop and test the software.
 Evaluation: Review and evaluate the software.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS:

4. Customer Involvement: The


customer is involved throughout
the development process,
providing feedback and
guidance.
ADVANTAGES

1. Flexibility: The Spiral Model is flexible and can be adapted to changing


requirements.
2. Risk management: The model provides a built-in risk management
approach.
3. Customer satisfaction: The customer is involved throughout the
development process, ensuring that the software meets their needs.
4. Large Projects: used for developing large & complex projects.
5. Meta Model: It contains good characteristics of many models.
DISADVANTAGES

1. Complexity: The Spiral Model can be complex to manage, especially for


large projects.
2. Time-consuming: The model requires a significant amount of time and
effort to complete each spiral.
3. High risk: The model assumes that the risks will be identified and
mitigated, but this may not always be the case.
4. Expensive: The spiral method is expensive because it handles risk-
oriented software projects and hence requires a significant amount of
investment in planning, risk analysis and evaluation.
WHEN TO USE:

1. High risk-projects: The Spiral Model is suitable for high-risk


projects where the requirements are not well-defined. E.g:
Space Exploration, Nuclear Power Plant, Self-Driving Cars
etc.
2. Complex projects: The model is suitable for complex
projects that require a flexible and iterative approach. E.g:
Operating System Development, Database management
Systes, Scientific Research Software.
WHEN TO USE:

3. Customer-driven projects: The model is suitable for projects


where the customer is heavily involved and requires frequent
feedback and delivery. E.g: E-commerce Website Development,
Mobile App development, Online Educational
Platforms(Coursera or Udemy)
