Modularity

Return to Glossary

See 2.2.3.1 Modularity

Modularity is the degree to which a system's components may be separated and recombined, often with the benefit of flexibility and variety in use. The concept of modularity is used primarily to reduce complexity by breaking a system into varying degrees of interdependence and independence across and “hide the complexity of each part behind an abstraction and interface.”
