A project execution plan might mean many things - it could be another name for a Project Management Plan (sometimes referred to as an Integrated Project Plan), or it might be a plan purely focusing on the execution or implementation stages of a project.
Programming also depends on whether we are referring to a software development project in which case that might be an activity taking place during the execution stages or something related to the TV or radio in which case that might be an operational activity.

Dear Kiron, many thanks for your clarification !
I forgot to mention that I am wogking in the construction area.
As I understand so far "Project Management Plan PMP" covers the entire project while "Project Execution Plan PEP" is focused on the pure construction phase even if the literature / web is not really clear on that.
The term "Programming" sounds for me like a combination of both PMP + PEP.
Or looking from another perspective, who is providing a "Programming"?
Is it the client, the PMC, the contractor or each of them for his scope?

I did a brief literature search and I don't think a "programming management plan" is a well recognized term with a standard useage.
Using Google Scholar, the phrase does not even return one result other than the various words in different parts of whitepapers and research studies. Saving Changes...

Dear Keith,
What I found out now that „Programming“ is a pre-design phase mainly used in the construction of semiconductor fabs.
The term "programming phase" in the context of construction typically refers to a stage in the overall project development process where the project's requirements and objectives are defined in detail. This phase occurs before the detailed design and construction activities begin. The programming phase is crucial for understanding the client's needs and setting the foundation for the subsequent stages of the project.

Stephan,
The more recognized term for that in engineering is Conceptual Design or Preliminary Design depending on your maturity criteria. Semiconductor development will most frequently fall under INCOSE (International Council on Systems Engineering) standards where you will find those terms frequently. A PDR or Preliminary Design Review is a common maturity gate to ensure a project is feasible with a high confidence level prior to detailed design where cost increases rapidly.
People do create their own terms for things, but in many years of researching industry standards related to project lifecycles in English, I have not come across the term programming phase. It may be a language translation issue however since program is a Latin adaptation of Greek to write something publicly, and conceptual and preliminary design is where the documentation becomes more formal.

Dear Abolfazl,
That was my original question .. What is the meaning of "Programming" ?
I still try to find out a satisfying answer so far with the help of Keith and Kiron.
I think Keith's remark on systems engineering is somehow directing in the right direction.
My understanding is now that Programming is close the requirement management (defining needs, operational und functional requirements) of SE.
