Top–down methods were favored in software engineering until the late 1980s, [3] and object-oriented programming assisted in demonstrating the idea that both aspects of top-down and bottom-up programming could be used. Modern software design approaches usually combine top–down and bottom–up approaches. Although an understanding of the ...
Both-ends-against-the-middle (BEATM) design is a design process that endeavors to combine the best features of top–down design, and bottom–up design into one process. A BEATM design process flow may begin with an emergent technology that suggests solutions that may have value, or it may begin with a top–down view of an important problem ...
Nanomanufacturing is both the production of nanoscaled materials, which can be powders or fluids, and the manufacturing of parts "bottom up" from nanoscaled materials or "top down" in smallest steps for high precision, used in several technologies such as laser ablation, etching and others. Nanomanufacturing differs from molecular manufacturing ...
This modeling style is a hybrid design, consisting of the best practices from both third normal form and star schema. The data vault model is not a true third normal form, and breaks some of its rules, but it is a top-down architecture with a bottom up design. The data vault model is geared to be strictly a data warehouse.
A new design method that couples the above bottom-up optimization with a preliminary system level top-down design has been formulated. [11] The two step design process has been motivated by considering that constructal and modular design does not refer to any objective to be reached in the design process.
BLUF (communication) BLUF (bottom line up front) [1] is the practice of beginning a message with its key information (the "bottom line"). This provides the reader with the most important information first. [2] By extension, that information is also called a BLUF. It differs from an abstract or executive summary in that it is simpler and more ...
Waterfall model. The waterfall model is a breakdown of development activities into linear sequential phases, meaning they are passed down onto each other, where each phase depends on the deliverables of the previous one and corresponds to a specialization of tasks. [1] The approach is typical for certain areas of engineering design.
Business communication is communication that is intended to help a business achieve a fundamental goal, through information sharing between employees as well as people outside the company. [1][2] It includes the process of creating, sharing, listening, and understanding messages between different groups of people through written and verbal ...
