A Comparison Between Three SDLC Models Waterfall Model, Spiral Model, and Incremental/Iterative Model
The computer has become indispensable in todays life, and it is widely used in many fields of life such as commerce, education, industry…etc. The computer saves time in regarding to help solving complex, long, repeated processes in a short time and high speed. As the software programs need to handle these features, many companies produce software programs to facilitate the works for administrations, banks, offices, etc. Moreover, software has been in used for analyzing information or solving problems for more than four decades. Creating a suitable work to develop programs of high quality is the main goal of the software engineering. Usually, clients seek the assistance from computer and software engineers to solve and handle their problems. There are various models have been widely in used to develop software products. Common models will be described in this paper.
Keywords: SDLC Models, Software Engineering, Waterfall model, Spiral model. Iterative model
