Abstract
Concurrent design may result in reduction of the duration of a design project, cost savings, and better quality of the final design, however, it may increase the complexity of the design process and make it more difficult to manage. One way to reduce the complexity of a large scale design project is to decompose it into subsystems. In this paper, three types of decomposition are discussed:
decomposition of module (component) - activity matrix
decomposition of procedure (formula) - parameter (variable) matrix
decomposition of activity (variable) - activity (variable) matrix.
The concepts presented in the paper are illustrated with examples.
