The document discusses the iterative enhancement model of software development. Some key advantages are that it allows for early development of some working functionality, is easily adaptable to changing needs, and risks can be identified and resolved during iterations. Testing and debugging are also easier during smaller iterations. However, it requires more resources and management attention compared to other models.
