1. An implementation unit comprises: an input/output module operably coupled to receive application requirements and parameters; and a processing module operable to implement: an architecture level design phase to produce architecture artifacts based on one or more of: the application requirements, the parameters, and architecture phase feedback; a high-level design (HLD) phase to produce HLD artifacts based on one or more of the architecture artifacts, the application requirements, the parameters, and HLD phase feedback; a low-level design (LLD) phase to produce LLD artifacts based on one or more of the architecture artifacts, the HLD artifacts, the application requirements, the parameters, and LLD phase feedback; and a code development phase to produce code artifacts based on one or more of: the HLD artifacts, the LLD artifacts, the application requirements, the parameters, and code development phase feedback.
