Design Methods Quiz

What are the benefits of design methods in the design process?

• They provide a structured roadmap for designers

• They enhance user-centric designs

• They eliminate complexities and generate creative ideas

• They enable collaboration and efficient resource utilization

How does bottom-up design approach start the design process?

• By analyzing and understanding the basic building blocks or components

• By developing complex structures or systems

• By integrating individual components into a complete design

• By refining each component before integration

Bottom-up design allows for flexibility by independently developing, testing, and refining components before integration

• True

• False

What are the steps involved in top-down design?

• Breaking down the overall system or concept into its constituent parts

• Defining the overarching goal, constraints, and requirements of the project

• Focusing on high-level concepts first and then refining the details

• Addressing smaller subproblems individually

Top-down design focuses on refining the details first and then addressing high-level concepts.

• False

• True

What are the pros of the Bottom-Up Design Method?

• Enables a deep understanding and optimization of individual components.

• Establishes a clear hierarchy and vision for the overall system.

• Promotes modular design for flexibility and scalability.

• Ensures alignment with project objectives and high-level goals.

What are the cons of the Top-Down Design Method?

• Details of lower-level components may be overlooked or underestimated.

• Enables a deep understanding and optimization of individual components.

• Promotes modular design for flexibility and scalability.

• Modifying high-level decisions can be complex and impact the system.

What is Stepwise Refinement?

• The process of breaking down a programming problem into a series of steps

• The act of defining each step to solve the problem

• The process of breaking the problem down into smaller sub-steps

• The level of detail required to code a solution to the problem
