Depends on the size and critical nature of the project. But in general most projects start with a high level "everything" and become more detailed over time.

Sante,
Interesting in some field/industry you just can't do that. Is the scope well define? or the scope get progressively define?
Decomposition of scope, schedule or cost should be to the desired level of control. This is influenced by many factors including complexity, team experience, organizational standards, and contractual requirements.
Outside of purely deterministic/predictive projects, as Sante indicates, rolling-wave approaches will reduce the likelihood of premature planning.

Kiron,
I certainly understand that the type and size of project would influence the timing and level of detail. In some industry it just can't be skip.
The more detail are you package less slip in between?
Rolling wave planning is applicable to a degree, but not in all industry and all projects.
If I was to build a large infrastructure project would it make sense to use Rolling wave planning or would I be better to define package? Same question for a large project of any kind?
Would a large IT project like IBM/Canadian paid management system Phoenix have better succeeded with rolling wave planning or a full planning with packages definitions?

I suspect, Vincent, that planning for Phoenix was done a long time ago and never repeated.

The level of detail is an estimation then it will depends on avaible time and available information. Because of that most of the organizations have a "light" version of the life cycle/governance process and to select if use or not use it is a process of estimation where a check list will guide it.

Sergio,
is this for internal project? I can see that for internal project a light version of planning could be use.
Would it make sense when in an external project where it engage your company to have a "light" process with limited planning?

There are not internal or external projects. There are projects as means to put strategy into action. That is what we use in my actual work place and what i used from years.
