Describe relationship to SDLC and SDLC model
Line 9:
Process methodologies include: [[Agile software development|agile]], [[waterfall model|waterfall]], [[software prototyping|prototyping]], [[iterative and incremental development]], [[spiral development]], [[rapid application development]], and [[extreme programming]].
 
The [[system development life cycle]] (SDLC) describes the typical phases that a development effort goes through from the beginning to the end of life for a system {{endash}} including a software system. A development process prescribes how [[engineer]]s go about their work in order to move the system through its life cycle. An SDLC model is a classification of processes or a blueprint for a process that is devised for the SDLC. For example, many software development processes can be classified as the same SDLC model.
A life-cycle "model" is sometimes considered a more general term for a category of methodologies and a software development "process" is a particular instance as adopted by a specific organization.{{Citation needed|date=September 2020}} For example, many specific software development processes fit the spiral life-cycle model. The field is often considered a subset of the [[systems development life cycle]].
