Match the following: 1) Waterfall model 2) Evolutionary model 3) Component-based software engineering 4) Spiral development a) Specifications can be developed incrementally b) Requirements compromises are inevitable c) Explicit recognition of risk d) Inflexible partitioning of the project into stages

1. 1-a, 2-b, 3-c, 4-d
2. 1-d, 2-a, 3-b, 4-c
3. 1-d, 2-b, 3-a, 4-c
4. 1-c, 2-a, 3-b, 4-d

Correct answer: 1-d, 2-a, 3-b, 4-c

Solution

The Waterfall model is characterized by its rigid structure, dividing the project into distinct stages, hence option 1-d. The Evolutionary model allows for incremental development of specifications, matching option 2-a. Component-based software engineering often involves trade-offs and compromises in requirements, aligning with option 3-b. Lastly, the Spiral development model incorporates risk assessment as a core element, corresponding to option 4-c.
