Embracing the Spiral Model fully introduces the new Incremental Commitment Spiral Model (ICSM). Boehm and three expert co-authors demonstrate how ICSM can be used to address more of the development cycle and nearly every type of development projects. Next, the authors guide implementers in applying ICSM's principles, implementing its activities, and adapting it to their own environments. To support effective implementation, Boehm provides a complete set of electronic tools and templates, and process guides. The book further teaches how to use ICSM to address challenges including concurrency, emergence, and time to market -- all while maintaining the spiral model's proven qualities of effectiveness, resilience, and affordability.
