Programming in the large and programming in the small
The programming activity was probably fairly short-lived as simple tasks are quick and easy to complete.With programming in the large, coding managers place emphasis on partitioning work into modules with precisely-specified interactions.The concept was introduced by Frank DeRemer and Hans Kron in their 1975 paper "Programming-in-the-Large Versus Programming-in-the-Small", IEEE Trans.Programming in the small can also describe an approach to building prototype software, or when rapid application development is more important than stability or correctness.In computer science terms, programming in the small deals with short-lived programmatic behavior, often executed as a single ACID transaction and which allows access to local logic and resources such as files, databases, etc.
