1. How is repetition of components different from redundancy? How are the design principles of
redundancy and simplicity related to one another and the concept of dependencies?
Solution
As nouns the difference between repetition and redundancy
is that repetition is the act or an instance of repeating or being repeated while redundancy is the
state of being redundant; a superfluity; something redundant or excessive; a needless repetition
in language; excessive wordiness.
Simplicity – not so much as the opposite principle to complexity, but rather the characteristic
of a simplicity of operation and design so that the system's performance and interaction with
other related system elements can be easily understood;
Redundancy – the system, or parts of it, should be designed so that it can be backed-up by
other redundant parts, or have its parts/modules easily replaced by cannibalising less important
parts of the same or other systems to keep it functioning;
