Glossary » tiering

tiering

a way of taking the tasks to be performed and putting them in several tiers . The most important are readily available; the less important tasks are on subsidiary levels. Designers used to put all tasks on the menu bar even if they were rarely used. With tiering, only the most important and most-often used tasks would be available without an extra click. Tiering is representative of the continuum form of organizing content.
