Advantages of Compartmentalization

1) Tasks can be assigned to a specific members of the software team.

2) Interdependent tasks are accomplished first. Certain tasks occur in sequence whereas other tasks occur in parallel. Therefore tasks which occur in sequence has to be performed in a sequential order since the output of one task will be the input of the next task. Other tasks can occur independently.
