Business administration. Configuration management (CM) is a management process for establishing and maintaining consistency of a product's performance, functional, and physical attributes with its requirements, design, and operational information throughout its life. [1][2] The CM process is widely used by military engineering organizations to ...
Knowledge-based configuration, also referred to as product configuration or product customization, is an activity of customising a product to meet the needs of a particular customer. The product in question may consist of mechanical parts, services, and software. Knowledge-based configuration is a major application area for artificial ...
In the configuration model, the degree of each vertex is pre-defined, rather than having a probability distribution from which the given degree is chosen. [2] As opposed to the Erdős–Rényi model, the degree sequence of the configuration model is not restricted to have a Poisson distribution, the model allows the user to give the network any desired degree distribution.
The Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) model is a process reference model originally developed and endorsed by the Supply Chain Council, now a part of ASCM, as the cross-industry, standard diagnostic tool for supply chain management. [1] The SCOR model describes the business activities associated with satisfying a customer's demand, which ...
A simple example of modular design in cars is the fact that, while many cars come as a basic model, paying extra will allow for "snap in" upgrades such as a more powerful engine, vehicle audio, ventilated seats, or seasonal tires; these do not require any change to other units of the car such as the chassis, steering, electric motor or battery ...
Configuration lifecycle managed through models composed of features that are an abstraction from the physical data layers. In CLM features are used as an abstraction layer between the CLM-system and subscribing systems. A feature string is a valid (as determined by the definitions in the CLM system) complete or partial selection of features ...
The resource-based view (RBV), often referred to as the "resource-based view of the firm", [1] is a managerial framework used to determine the strategic resources a firm can exploit to achieve sustainable competitive advantage. Barney's 1991 article "Firm Resources and Sustained Competitive Advantage" is widely cited as a pivotal work in the ...
Queueing theory is the mathematical study of waiting lines, or queues. [1] A queueing model is constructed so that queue lengths and waiting time can be predicted. [ 1 ] Queueing theory is generally considered a branch of operations research because the results are often used when making business decisions about the resources needed to provide ...
