Waterfall Model Failure

I recently saw the video on “Real Software Engineering” and one of the things that struck me about the video is that it pointed out that the classic ‘waterfall model‘ of software development that we are all taught in schools, does not work. Not only does it not work, in fact, the original author and person attributed for inventing the model actually said that, “I believe in this concept, but the implementation described (above) is risky and invites failure.”

Hahaha!
