Process Models in Design and Development
Read this article. It provides an overview of planning models. Pay particular attention to Figure 1 as it visually provides a global view of planning models. Then review Figures 2 -17 for more in-depth visual planning processes.
Micro-level models
To recap, models of the DDP on the micro-level focus on individual process steps and their immediate contexts. Such models typically emphasise individual or small group situations. The next subsections describe micro-level procedural, analytical, abstract, and MS/OR models in turn.
