Iterative Waterfall Model Flashcards
What is the main modification in the Iterative Waterfall Model compared to the classical Waterfall Model?
The introduction of feedback mechanisms.
What problem does the Iterative Waterfall Model address?
It prevents issues from propagating through subsequent phases without correction.
How does feedback integration work in the Iterative Waterfall Model?
Feedback can be provided to make adjustments in earlier phases if a mistake is detected in one phase.
Is there feedback during the feasibility study phase in the Iterative Waterfall Model?
No, there is no feedback during the feasibility study phase.
What is a key advantage of the Iterative Waterfall Model?
The ability to incorporate feedback at various stages.
What is a notable disadvantage of the Iterative Waterfall Model?
No phase overlapping, meaning each phase must be completed before moving on.
What does the Iterative Waterfall Model lack regarding software delivery?
There is no intermediate delivery of the software.
What limitation does the Iterative Waterfall Model have concerning project requirements?
Once fixed, requirements cannot be easily modified.
How does the Iterative Waterfall Model affect customer interaction?
There is limited customer interaction throughout the development process.
True or False: The Iterative Waterfall Model allows for parallel work between phases.
False.
Fill in the blank: The Iterative Waterfall Model is suitable for _______ projects where the requirements are clear and stable.
smaller
What is the approach taken in the feasibility study phase of the Iterative Waterfall Model?
“No turning back” approach after the decision to develop is made.
What does the feedback mechanism help to identify and resolve?
Problems earlier in the development process.
What does the Iterative Waterfall Model retain from the classical Waterfall Model?
Simplicity and ease of use.
What is the consequence of limited customer interaction in the Iterative Waterfall Model?
Limited feedback from the customer throughout development.
What is a significant drawback of the Iterative Waterfall Model regarding final product delivery?
Customers only see the final product after all phases are completed.
