High-level Design

High-level design is a process of designing a system by breaking it down into smaller components or modules. It involves creating a blueprint of the system, outlining the structure and behavior of the system, and specifying the relationships between the components. This process is an important part of the system development life cycle, as it helps to determine the feasibility of a system before it is implemented.

High-Level Design

High-Level Design is a process in which a designer develops a system’s major components and the relationships among them. It is a step in the design process which focuses on the concept and architecture of the system. It involves the development of the overall structure and provides a high-level view of the system’s design. This process is often used to develop an abstract representation of the system and its components. High-Level Design includes the identification of the system components, their relationships and the design of the interface between the components. The goal of this process is to provide a clear and precise understanding of the system and its components, allowing for the design of the system to be completed at a later stage.

High-Level Design

High-Level Design is a broad term that encompasses the scope of a design problem, the design objectives and the constraints that govern the solution. It is the process of creating a comprehensive plan of action for a desired outcome, which defines the design parameters, workflow and the roles and responsibilities of the involved parties. It is a high-level view of the project and its environment, providing a detailed roadmap for the development of the solution. High-Level Design takes into consideration the scope of the problem, the user’s needs, the timeline and the resources required to complete the project while ensuring that the desired outcome is achieved.
