Question

In the spiral model of software development, the primary determinant in selecting activities in each iteration is ________.
 

• A. iteration size
• B. cost
• C. risk
• D. adopted process such as rational unified process or extreme programming

Hint:

The Spiral Model is particularly beneficial for projects with significant uncertainty or risk.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

In the Spiral Model, risk management is the primary driver for selecting which activities to focus on in each iteration. The model emphasizes risk analysis and mitigation, with each iteration focusing on the risks identified in previous cycles. The cost and iteration size are considered, but they are secondary to addressing the risks associated with the project.
