Explanation

DEEP stands for: Detailed appropriately (top-priority items are more refined than lower-priority ones), Estimated (items have relative size estimates), Emergent (the backlog evolves as new information is discovered), and Prioritized (items are ordered by value/risk/dependency). INVEST is a different Agile acronym - it describes the attributes of a well-formed User Story, not the backlog itself. ITERA and DESPO are not recognized Agile acronyms.
