Rolling Wave Planning is a case of progressive elaboration in which the deliverables about which full information is available are decomposed to the lowest level, whereas the deliverables for which full information is not available are left at higher levels until the information becomes available.
It is called so because the process happens in stages just like sets of waves reaching the shore one after the other.

What is a Project Plan?
A formal, approved document used to guide both project execution and project control. Once the project has been initiated, it is time to do some planning. Project planning starts with the process of developing a project management plan, which defines, prepares, coordinates, and integrates all subsidiary plans, such as scope and risk management plans, into one big plan called the project management plan. The goal here is to develop a source of information that will work as a guideline for how the project will be planned, executed, controlled, and closed. One reason why it is important to develop a project management plan is that not all projects need all the planning processes, and to the same degree. Therefore, the content of the project management plan will depend upon specific project that is being worked on. As the project goes through different stages, the project management plan may be updated and revised through the change control process. Below are some issues that a Project Management Plan is expected to address. 1. Which project management processes will be used for this process, what the level of implementation for each of these processes will be, and what the inputs and tools and techniques for these processes are 2. How the changes will be monitored and controlled 3. What the needs and techniques for communication among the stakeholders are 4. How the project lifecycle looks, including the project phases if the project is a multiphase project 5. The lifecycle selected for the project at hand

Difference between quality management and project management?
Quality Management is a subset of Project Management. Quality Management consists of quality planning, assurance, and control. Managing projects requires applying knowledge, skills, and tools and techniques to project activities in order to meet the project objectives. You do this by performing some processes at various stages of the project, as discussed in the previous chapter. That means processes are part of the knowledge required to manage projects. Each aspect of a project is managed by using the corresponding knowledge area. For example, each project has a scope that needs to be managed, and the knowledge required to manage scope is in the knowledge area called project scope management. To perform the project work within the project scope, you need human resources, which need to be managed; the knowledge used to manage human resources is called human resource management. Each process belongs to one of the nine knowledge areas: 1. Scope Management 2. Time Management 3. Cost Management 4. Human Resource Management 5. Procurement Management 6. Risk Management 7. Quality Management 8. Integration Management & 9. Communication Management Project quality is defined as the degree to which a project satisfies its objectives and requirements. For example, a high-quality project is a project that is completed on time and with all the work in the project scope completed within the planned budget. Project quality management includes the following: 1. Plan quality - Determine the quality requirements and standards that are relevant to the project at hand and how to apply them. 2. Perform quality assurance - Ensure the planned quality requirements and standards are applied. 3. Perform quality control - Monitor the quality activities and record the results of these activities in order to assess performance and make necessary recommendations for corrective actions and changes.
Importance of project management in strategic planning?
Good Project Management is critical to keeping strategic targets on schedule. A strategic plan is usually management-driven and forward-looking. That means your strategic plan may take over three, five or ten years to achive it's goal. During that time, you need a heartbeat, or tracking method - to ensure everything is on the right course; or corrections are made at the right time to keep it on course. Any activity performed during the course of a project to ensure it remains on target is called Tactical Planning. Tactical Planning Decisions are made for short-term goals. A good project manager will monitor the overall life-cycle of a project, and suggest changes or adjustments as needed, depending on their requirements (Cost, Quality and Time drive most schedules...)
