I was reading Software Engineering 9th Edition by Ion Summerville. On the topic of iteration in process models I found this process diagram for incremental development. I am unable to understand this diagram.
According to me,
From description the next step should be specification then development and then validation and then the final product should be created. Please help me out in understanding this diagram. Thanks

Not a great diagram that.
In fact it’s crap. It’s the arrows between activities that are the key.
Specify -> Develop. Found out ordernumber isn’t an int. Specify -> Develop -> Validate, Discover you missed one data entry field for order number -> Develop…
Meanwhile the spec boys are working on the invoicing link…
