SYSTEM ENGINEERING Compare and contrast the waterfall, spiral, cycle, and Vee models of the systems engineering process. In particular, what (e.g., functions performed, time sequence of functions, outputs produced, interaction with stakeholders) is the same in each of these processes and what is different? Are there some categories of systems for which one process would be better than the others? Use outside references to gain more information on the Waterfall, Spiral, Cycle and Vee models.
