Spiral LifeCycle

The Spiral LifeCycle is initially based on the Waterfall LifeCycle, realizing that it is best to divide the project into tasks that are doable in 4-6 weeks. Each cycle is a complete development cycle, including detailed analysis, design, implementation, code reviews, testing, and documentation. For you who are familiar with the Scrum Sprints, this process is very similar with the addition of more formal Structured Analysis/Design and Code Reviews.
