Specification tree

Ruffed grouse, B. umhellus, feed on staminate flower buds and extended catkins of trembling aspen, P. tremuloides. In winter these birds select specific trees or clones. Analysis for alkaloids, tannins, and other phenolics showed that feeding preferences were not related to the levels of tannin or total phenolics in... 

A workspace by itself has a flat data structure with a minimum of predefined hierarchy. The data organization can be structured on the fly by using the metadata of each file. Since each file may have several metadata that can be used for categorization, the user defines the file tree representation within each session and each workspace independently for other views. Different user-specific tree view settings can then be stored and selected for later use. 

The motivation for this specification tree is to get large groups of people organized and working effectively together on large projects. This technique leads to the... 

The enterprise shall generate a drawing tree to reflect the drawings associated with the elements of the design architecture. This tree should resemble the specification tree of Figure 5. 

The design architecture is verified upon satisfactorily resolving the variances and conflicts identified in 6.4.3. The verified design architecture, with rationale justifying the architecmre, trade-off analyses performed, and key decisions, is documented in the integrated database. This verified design architecture is used to form the specification tree for the system, and when combined with the verified life cycle process design architectures, forms the system architecture. 

Conifer resin, which is a mixture of monoterpenes and diterpenes is an important protective compound against bark beetles and other conifer herbivores. The volatile monoterpenes emanating from a specific tree is often the cue for bark beetles to find a tree where the tree defenses could be compromised from abiotic or biotic stresses. The synchronized mass attack is the strategy bark beetles use to reduce the effects of resin-based defenses in conifers. Aggregation hormones released by bark beetles are oxidized monoterpenoids such as ipsdienol, ipsenol and verbenol. It is believed that these compounds can be oxidation products of host plant monoterpenes such as myrcene. Recently it has been observed that most of the monoterpenoid aggregation pheromone components are biosynthesized de novo in bark beetles [7].

The purpose of the Requirements Analysis Process is to transform the stakeholder, requirement-driven view of desired services into a technical view of a product that could deliver those services. This technical view will result in the SDD and the Specification Tree, which will graphically show the deliverables associated with system requirements. Figure 4.1 illustrates the steps of the Requirements Analysis Process. It may be tailored to fit the size and complexity of the project. 

The purpose of the systems engineering technical process Develop Specification Trees and Specifications is to translate identified needs into system solutions composed of specified elements of hardware and software that may be implemented... 

All specifications have been identified and located on the Specification Tree. 

Development of the Specification Tree will identify existing elements of the system, and those that must be designed, procured, or otherwise implemented. This must occur as early as possible in the system life cycle. At each element or node of the tree, a specification is written and as the system development matures, a corresponding individual verification of the system design, performance, or safety will be performed. 

Obtain the system hierarchy, which describes the relationship between system elements. This was shown for system specifications in the Specification Tree of Figure 4.2. In addition, obtain all design information and other data that define the system structure and its interfaces.
