Hierarchical Modularity

Hierarchical modularity is a way of organizing complex systems by breaking them into smaller, interconnected parts called modules. These modules are grouped into larger units, which themselves are composed of smaller modules, creating a multi-level structure. This approach helps manage complexity, improve understanding, and facilitate maintenance or changes, as each module can function somewhat independently within the bigger system. Think of it like a company: employees are grouped into teams, teams into departments, and departments into divisions—each level managing specific tasks while contributing to the overall organization.
