  2. Control-flow diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control-flow_diagram

    Example of a "performance seeking" control-flow diagram. [1] A control-flow diagram (CFD) is a diagram to describe the control flow of a business process, process or review. Control-flow diagrams were developed in the 1950s, and are widely used in multiple engineering disciplines.

  3. Control (management) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_(management)

    Control may be grouped according to three general classifications: [3] the nature of the information flow designed into the system (open- or closed-loop control) the kind of components included in the design (man or machine control systems) the relationship of control to the decision process (organizational or operational control).

  4. Control loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_loop

    A control loop is the fundamental building block of control systems in general and industrial control systems in particular. It consists of the process sensor, the controller function, and the final control element (FCE) which controls the process necessary to automatically adjust the value of a measured process variable (PV) to equal the value of a desired set-point (SP).

  5. Configuration management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Configuration_management

    It covers the process of controlling modifications to the system's design, hardware, firmware, software, and documentation. Configuration Status Accounting: includes the process of recording and reporting configuration item descriptions (e.g., hardware, software, firmware, etc.) and all departures from the baseline during design and production.

  6. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    In computer science, control flow (or flow of control) is the order in which individual statements, instructions or function calls of an imperative program are executed or evaluated. The emphasis on explicit control flow distinguishes an imperative programming language from a declarative programming language.

  7. Flowchart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flowchart

    A process step, usually called an activity, is denoted by a rectangular box. A decision is usually denoted by a diamond. A flowchart is described as "cross-functional" when the chart is divided into different vertical or horizontal parts, to describe the control of different organizational units.

  8. Management process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Management_process

    A management process is a process of setting goals, planning and/or controlling the organising and leading the execution of any type of activity, [1] such as: A project (project management process), [2] or; A process (process management process, sometimes referred to as the process performance measurement and management system) [3]

  9. Control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_system

    For continuously modulated control, a feedback controller is used to automatically control a process or operation. The control system compares the value or status of the process variable (PV) being controlled with the desired value or setpoint (SP), and applies the difference as a control signal to bring the process variable output of the plant ...
