  2. Avalanche breakdown - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avalanche_breakdown

    Avalanche breakdown (or the avalanche effect) is a phenomenon that can occur in both insulating and semiconducting materials. It is a form of electric current multiplication that can allow very large currents within materials which are otherwise good insulators. It is a type of electron avalanche.

  3. Work breakdown structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_breakdown_structure

    A work-breakdown structure (WBS) [2] in project management and systems engineering is a deliverable-oriented breakdown of a project into smaller components. A work breakdown structure is a key project management element that organizes the team's work into manageable sections.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Value_breakdown_structure

    The concept has similarities with the deliverable-oriented work breakdown structure (WBS) decomposition which is used in project management and systems engineering to break down a project into smaller components in a tree structure that represents how the work of the project will create the components of the final product. Resources and cost ...

  9. Goals breakdown structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goals_Breakdown_Structure

    The work breakdown structure is a hierarchical decomposition of the work to be done in a project. The term "goal breakdown structure" was coined by Stephen Gershenson, working with Michael B Bender and Stuart Syme in the late 1990s. The concept was first presented in project management seminars during this period.
