Primes

• Abstraction

  • This sourceStandard textbook covering processes and techniques for reliable software, including abstraction and reuse.

• Boundary
  • Listed in the references but not attached to a specific claim.
• Compatibility
  • Listed in the references but not attached to a specific claim.
• Decomposition
  • Listed in the references but not attached to a specific claim.
• Dependency

  • This sourceGeneral software-engineering text covering dependency management, coupling/cohesion, and architectural layering.

• Design Prototyping
  • The distinction between throw-away prototypes (used only for learning, discarded) and evolutionary prototypes (versions of the final product refined iteratively)

    This sourceDistinguishes throw-away from evolutionary prototyping and frames the prototype → test → refine cycle with decision gates; covers scope/feature-creep risks.

• Layering
  • Listed in the references but not attached to a specific claim.
• Minimalism
  • Listed in the references but not attached to a specific claim.
• Modularity
  • The principle of high cohesion within modules and low coupling between modules
• Task Interdependence
  • Listed in the references but not attached to a specific claim.

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This work's ISBN is recorded above but has not been resolved against an external catalogue, so nothing here confirms the work exists.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 10 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
