Write any example for Iterative and Incremental model. One example for each.
Iterative model
For example clients may not be aware of exactly what requirements they want before they see a
working prototype and can comment upon it - they may change their requirements constantly,
and program designers. This is an example of iterative model
Incremental model
Example -An example of this incremental approach is observed in the development of word
processing applications where the following services are provided on subsequent modules:
• Basic file management, editing and document production functions
• Advanced editing and document production functions
• Spell and grammar checking
Question No:
Identify different phases of Spiral model.
There are different phases uses in spiral model for example organization focusing on
Determine the objectives, find the alternatives, plan next phase and develop the next level product. Evaluate alternatives, identify and resolve risks – This involves. Risk analysis and Prototyping, develop, verify next-level product Plan next phase and to determine the strength and weakness in organization
Identify the various phases of decision making process? (3)
Design: Once the debtors have been analyzed on the basis of pattern of collection, options can be
generated to improve collection rates.
Choice: Now a selection has to be made which single strategy or combination of strategies
should be implemented.
Implementation: Now the stage comes of communicating the policy approved to the interested
and Relevant
Monitoring: Once the decision has been implemented, the effects and responses should be
Monitored
