Problem Abstraction
Details are removed until the problem is represented in a way that is possible to solve because the problem is reduced to one that has already been solved
Representational Abstraction
Representation by removing unnecessary details so only the information that is needed to solve the problem is required.
Abstraction by Generalisation
Grouping by common characteristics
Decomposition
Breaking a problem into a number of sub-problems
Procedural Decomposition
