Configuration management ( CM) is a management process for establishing and maintaining consistency of a product's performance, functional, and physical attributes with its requirements, design, and operational information throughout its life. [ 1][ 2] The CM process is widely used by military engineering organizations to manage changes ...
Configure, price and quote. Configure, price, quote (CPQ) software helps sellers quote complex and configurable products. [ 1] An example could be a maker of heavy trucks. If the customer chooses a certain chassis (the base frame of a motor vehicle), the choice of engines may be limited, because certain engines might not fit a certain chassis.
Configuration (geometry) Configurations (4 3 6 2) (a complete quadrangle, at left) and (6 2 4 3) (a complete quadrilateral, at right). In mathematics, specifically projective geometry, a configuration in the plane consists of a finite set of points, and a finite arrangement of lines, such that each point is incident to the same number of lines ...
Software configuration management ( SCM ), a.k.a. software change and configuration management ( SCCM ), [ 1] is the software engineering practice of tracking and controlling changes to a software system; part of the larger cross-disciplinary field of configuration management (CM). [ 2] SCM includes version control and the establishment of ...
The term configuration item ( CI) refers to the fundamental structural unit of a configuration management system. [ 1] Examples of CIs include individual hardware or software components. The configuration-management system oversees the life of the CIs through a combination of processes and tools by implementing and enabling the fundamental ...
Cis–trans isomerism, also known as geometric isomerism, describes certain arrangements of atoms within molecules. The prefixes " cis " and " trans " are from Latin: "this side of" and "the other side of", respectively. [ 1] In the context of chemistry, cis indicates that the functional groups (substituents) are on the same side of some plane ...
Computer configuration. In communications or computer systems, a configuration of a system refers to the arrangement of each of its functional units, according to their nature, number and chief characteristics. Often, configuration pertains to the choice of hardware, software, firmware, and documentation. Along with its architecture, the ...
Configuration file, a software file used to configure the initial settings for a computer program. Configurator, also known as choice board, design system, or co-design platform, used in product design to capture customers' specifications. Configure script ("./configure" in Unix), the output of Autotools; used to detect system configuration.
