Iterative development life cycle (IDLC): a management process for large scale intelligent system development

Abstract

The iterative development life cycle (IDLC) provides a management process for the successful development of large-scale intelligent system applications. The iterative process minimizes both risks and costs by combining both the well structured management techniques of the waterfall process and the early validation techniques of the evolutionary model. This process is more adaptable to the full range of software project situations and provides the flexibility necessary to accommodate a high dynamic range of technical alternatives.<>
