The ADDIE model describes a systematic approach to instructional development. The term is virtually synonymous with instructional systems development (ISD) and evolved informally through oral tradition. It is not a specific, fully elaborated model in its own right but rather an umbrella term that represents a family of models that share a common underlying structure.

The Understanding by Design® framework (UbD™ framework) offers a planning
process and structure to guide curriculum, assessment, and instruction. Its
two key ideas are contained in the title: 1) focus on teaching and assessing for
understanding and learning transfer, and 2) design curriculum “backward” from
those ends.
