<mainDescription>&lt;p>&#xD;
Most activities during a typical iteration in Elaboration phase happen in parallel. Essentially, the main objectives&#xD;
for Elaboration are related to better understanding the requirements, creating and establishing a baseline of the&#xD;
architecture for the system, and mitigating top-priority risks.&#xD;
&lt;/p>&#xD;
&lt;p>&#xD;
The following table summarizes the&amp;nbsp;Elaboration phase objectives and&amp;nbsp;what activities address each objective:&#xD;

<alternatives>There will be iterations when projects risks are being addressed by creating software, but they may not be architecturally&#xD;
significant. In this case, &lt;a class=&quot;elementLink&quot;&#xD;

Solution Increment&lt;/a> will be performed outside the context of the architecture. For the most part, Develop Solution will&#xD;
be performed in the context of &lt;a class=&quot;elementLink&quot;&#xD;
