Conception d'une automobileLa conception d'une automobile est le travail effectué par une équipe pluridisciplinaire composée d'ingénieurs, de spécialistes de l'ergonomie, de stylistes intérieurs et extérieurs, de modélistes ou maquettistes et de spécialistes du marketing qui fixent les contraintes et les attentes liées au style, pour mener à la réalisation d'une automobile. La conception des automobiles dans ce contexte est principalement concernée par le développement de l’aspect ou l’esthétique visuelle du véhicule, bien qu’elle soit également impliquée dans la création du concept de produit.
ComputationA computation is any type of arithmetic or non-arithmetic calculation that is well-defined. Common examples of computations are mathematical equations and computer algorithms. Mechanical or electronic devices (or, historically, people) that perform computations are known as computers. The study of computation is the field of computability, itself a sub-field of computer science. The notion that mathematical statements should be ‘well-defined’ had been argued by mathematicians since at least the 1600s, but agreement on a suitable definition proved elusive.
Systems modelingSystems modeling or system modeling is the interdisciplinary study of the use of models to conceptualize and construct systems in business and IT development. A common type of systems modeling is function modeling, with specific techniques such as the Functional Flow Block Diagram and IDEF0. These models can be extended using functional decomposition, and can be linked to requirements models for further systems partition.
Location-based serviceA location-based service (LBS) is a general term denoting software services which use geographic data and information to provide services or information to users. LBS can be used in a variety of contexts, such as health, indoor object search, entertainment, work, personal life, etc. Commonly used examples of location based services include navigation software, social networking services, location-based advertising, and tracking systems. LBS can also include mobile commerce when taking the form of coupons or advertising directed at customers based on their current location.
