recommends dividing the project up into individual subsystems, and then dividing each subsystem further into the activities that will be required to develop it, then making a series of detailed estimates for each individual activity, and summing the results to arrive at the grand total estimate for the project | ![2001-08-30 14:55:06.0](facet.gif) |
