Waterfall Design
Waterfall design refers to a project management methodology where tasks are completed sequentially in a linear fashion, with each phase being completed before the next one begins. This approach involves a structured and rigid process that moves from one stage to the next in a predetermined order, typically including phases such as requirements gathering, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. The waterfall model is characterized by its strict adherence to a predetermined plan and minimal flexibility for changes once the project has started.
