    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    v. t. e. An engineering drawing is a type of technical drawing that is used to convey information about an object. A common use is to specify the geometry necessary for the construction of a component and is called a detail drawing. Usually, a number of drawings are necessary to completely specify even a simple component.

  3. Technical drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_drawing

    Technical drawing, drafting or drawing, is the act and discipline of composing drawings that visually communicate how something functions or is constructed. Technical drawing is essential for communicating ideas in industry and engineering . To make the drawings easier to understand, people use familiar symbols, perspectives, units of ...

  4. Instruction pipelining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction_pipelining

    In computer engineering, instruction pipelining is a technique for implementing instruction-level parallelism within a single processor. Pipelining attempts to keep every part of the processor busy with some instruction by dividing incoming instructions into a series of sequential steps (the eponymous "pipeline") performed by different processor units with different parts of instructions ...

    A list, usually tabular and often on the drawing (if not accompanying the drawing on a separate sheet), listing the parts needed in an assembly, including subparts, standard parts, and hardware. There is no consistently enforced distinction between an L/M, a BoM, or a P/L. PLM: product lifecycle management; plant lifecycle management: See also ...

  6. Backcasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backcasting

    Backcasting is a planning method that starts with defining a desirable future and then works backwards to identify policies and programs that will connect that specified future to the present. [ 1] The fundamentals of the method were outlined by John B. Robinson from the University of Waterloo in 1990. [ 2]

  7. Instruction cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instruction_cycle

    Instruction cycle. The instruction cycle (also known as the fetch–decode–execute cycle, or simply the fetch-execute cycle) is the cycle that the central processing unit (CPU) follows from boot-up until the computer has shut down in order to process instructions. It is composed of three main stages: the fetch stage, the decode stage, and the ...

    An Airbus A321 on final assembly line 3 in the Airbus Hamburg-Finkenwerder plant Hyundai's car assembly line. An assembly line is a manufacturing process (often called a progressive assembly) in which parts (usually interchangeable parts) are added as the semi-finished assembly moves from workstation to workstation where the parts are added in sequence until the final assembly is produced.

  9. Information flow diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_flow_diagram

    Information flow diagram. An information flow diagram ( IFD) is a diagram that shows how information is communicated (or "flows") from a source to a receiver or target (e.g. A→C), through some medium. [ 1]: 36–39 The medium acts as a bridge, a means of transmitting the information. Examples of media include word of mouth, radio, email, etc.
