  2. Function model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_model

    Example of a function model of the process of "Maintain Reparable Spares" in IDEF0 notation. A function model, similar with the activity model or process model, is a graphical representation of an enterprise's function within a defined scope. The purposes of the function model are to describe the functions and processes, assist with discovery ...

  3. Systems modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_modeling

    Business Process Modeling Notation Example. Systems modeling or system modeling is the interdisciplinary study of the use of models to conceptualize and construct systems in business and IT development. [2] A common type of systems modeling is function modeling, with specific techniques such as the Functional Flow Block Diagram and IDEF0.

  4. Mathematical optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_optimization

    The function f is variously called an objective function, criterion function, loss function, cost function (minimization), [8] utility function or fitness function (maximization), or, in certain fields, an energy function or energy functional. A feasible solution that minimizes (or maximizes) the objective function is called an optimal solution.

  5. Modeling and simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modeling_and_simulation

    The mathematical model represents the physical model in virtual form, and conditions are applied that set up the experiment of interest. The simulation starts – i.e., the computer calculates the results of those conditions on the mathematical model – and outputs results in a format that is either machine- or human-readable, depending upon ...

  6. Greek letters used in mathematics, science, and engineering

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_letters_used_in...

    Greek letters are used in mathematics, science, engineering, and other areas where mathematical notation is used as symbols for constants, special functions, and also conventionally for variables representing certain quantities. In these contexts, the capital letters and the small letters represent distinct and unrelated entities.

  7. IDEF0 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDEF0

    IDEF0 Diagram Example. IDEF0, a compound acronym ("Icam DEFinition for Function Modeling", where ICAM is an acronym for "Integrated Computer Aided Manufacturing"), is a function modeling methodology for describing manufacturing functions, which offers a functional modeling language for the analysis, development, reengineering and integration of information systems, business processes or ...

  8. Functional flow block diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_flow_block_diagram

    Function block: Each function on an FFBD should be separate and be represented by single box (solid line). Each function needs to stand for definite, finite, discrete action to be accomplished by system elements. Function numbering: Each level should have a consistent number scheme and provide information concerning function origin. These ...

  9. Scientific modelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_modelling

    Scientific modelling is an activity that produces models representing empirical objects, phenomena, and physical processes, to make a particular part or feature of the world easier to understand, define, quantify, visualize, or simulate.
