An existing software needs to be developed in newer and better technology, and your company has been assigned this task. The software has been running successfully for a few years and does not require any major changes in its functionalities in the newer technology. This is because the same functions that are available in the current version will also exist in the updated version. Which process model is the most suitable for the current scenario?

List your reason(s) for your choice of model as well.
