Extensions to the spiral model to support joint development of complex software systems

ABSTRACT

Complex problems are increasingly being addressed by joint development teams representing multiple commercial software companies. These efforts often require competitors to work side-by-side to develop a software product. The existing software development processes do not fully model these efforts. Through analysis of the risks of jointly developing a product, the spiral model has been extended to model development in this environment.
