Programming in the large
- The designing of a larger system as a composition of smaller parts, involving programming by larger groups of people or by smaller groups over longer time periods. With programming in the large, coding managers place emphasis on partitioning work into modules with precisely-specified interactions. This requires careful planning and documentation. With programming in the large, program changes can become difficult. If a change operates across module boundaries, the work of many people may need redoing. Because of this, one goal of programming in the large involves setting up modules that will not need altering in the event of probable changes. ← Wikipedia
