SPIRAL MODEL The spiral model combines the idea of iterative development (prototyping) with the systematic‚ controlled aspects of the waterfall model. It allows for incremental releases of the product‚ or incremental refinement through each time around the spiral. The spiral model also explicitly includes risk management within software development. Identifying major risks‚ both technical and managerial‚ and determining how to lessen the risk helps keep the software development process under control

ABSTRACT Spiral structures are one of the most difficult patterns to classify. Spiral time series data has a helical movement with time that is both difficult to predict as well as classify. This paper focusses on how structural information about spirals can be useful in providing critical information to a neural network for their recognition. Results are presented on neural network solutions to the classical two-spiral problem by extracting structural and rotational information from the spiral training
