In the diagram above, software product development proceeds along the red spiral, with each arrow representing a new build/release cycle. This iterative model exploits the previous build/release cycles in terms of incorporating customer inputs / feedback into the requirements gathering and synthesis phase for subsequent build / release cycles.
