Top-down or bottom-up procedure

What is meant by Top-down or bottom-up procedure?

Top-down and bottom-up approaches are two different approaches that are used, for example, in software development and in management or project management. They describe how a project or a process is planned and implemented.

Top-down approach:

In the top-down approach, planning and development begins at a higher, abstract level and then gradually moves into the details. This means that a comprehensive architecture or overall concept is created first, and then the details, such as modules or functions, are developed gradually. This approach promotes good overview and planning, but can lead to neglecting the implementation details.

Bottom-Up Approach:

The bottom-up approach starts at a detailed, specific level and then incrementally adds those details together to create a larger solution. Here, the individual components or modules are developed first, and then they are gradually combined into larger units. This approach can lead to faster implementation results, but may compromise the overall project overview.
