Primes¶
- Progressive Refinement from Core Model
- … accuracy requirements, and (4) the pattern's domain of validity is self-diagnostic: as long as each correction is small compared to what it corrects, the refinement is working; once higher-order terms grow comparably to lower-order ones, the baseline is the wrong baseline and no amount of refinement will help.
This sourceIntroduces the spiral model in which each iteration explicitly measures divergence between current artifact and target requirements, then applies risk-driven corrections before the next cycle.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
