Terminologies - Coggle Diagram

- - - - The design process should not suffer from "tunnel vision"
      - The design should be traceable to the analysis model.
      - The design should not reinvent the wheel
      - The design should "minimize the intellectual distance" between the software and the problem as it exists in the real world.
      - The design should exhibit uniformity and integration
      - The design should be structured to accommodate change
      - The design should be structured to degrade gently, even when aberrant data, events, or operating conditions are encountered
      - Design is not coding, coding is not design
      - The design should be assessed for quality as it is being created, not after the fact.
      - The design should be reviewed to minimize conceptual (semantic) errors
    - - Abstraction
      - Refinement - It is the process of elaboration. A hierarchy is developed by decomposing a macroscopic statement of function in a step-wise fashion until programming language statements are reached. In each step, one or several instructions of a given program are decomposed into more detailed instructions. Abstraction and Refinement are complementary concepts.
      - Modularity
      - S/w Arch
      - Control Hierarchy - A program structure that represents the organization of a program component and implies a hierarchy of control.
      - Structural Partitioning - The program structure can be divided horizontally and vertically. Horizontal partitions define separate branches of modular hierarchy for each major program function. Vertical partitioning suggests that control and work should be distributed top-down in the program structure.
      - Data Structure - It is a representation of the logical relationship among individual elements of data.
      - Software Procedure - It focuses on the processing of each module individually.
      - Information Hiding - Modules should be specified and designed so that information contained within a module is inaccessible to other modules that have no need for such information.
