I got several responses that were already included on my list, but there still may be more lurking out there, so here is my list--culled using several manual and electronic methods. If you have anything to add, please let me know. I am still interested in finding REAL applications of the Spiral LCM (the REAL Spiral LCM and not just prototyping or incremental build type experiences that resemble the Spiral LCM, i.e., there must be some sort of on-going risk analysis that guides what the process is at each cycle of the spiral). I have not obtained and read all of these references; some appear to be only marginally applicable. I would especially be grateful if someone has reference number 3 (Belz, 1986), since I have not been able to obtain a hardcopy of it. Thanks, and here are the references: [1] Bajwa, L. Yvonne, 1989.
