What are ways of dealing with problem complexity?
- Abstraction
- Decomposition
- Projection
- Modularization
Explain using Abstraction to deal with problem complexity.
Ignore details and focus on the larger picture
Explain using Decomposition to deal with problem complexity.
Partition problem into many independent pieces to be studied separately
Explain using Projection to deal with problem complexity.
Separate different views and describe them separately. Different from decomposition as it does NOT partition problem, but offers different points of view
Explain using Modularization to deal with problem complexity.
Choose structures that are stable over time to localize change.
