Group cohesivenessGroup cohesiveness, also called group cohesion or social cohesion, arises when bonds link members of a social group to one another and to the group as a whole. Although cohesion is a multi-faceted process, it can be broken down into four main components: social relations, task relations, perceived unity, and emotions. Members of strongly cohesive groups are more inclined to participate readily and to stay with the group. From Neo-Latin cohaesio and French cohésion, in physics, cohesion means "the force that unites the molecules of a liquid or of a solid".

Make (software)In software development, Make is a build automation tool that builds executable programs and libraries from source code by reading s called makefiles which specify how to derive the target program. Though integrated development environments and language-specific compiler features can also be used to manage a build process, Make remains widely used, especially in Unix and Unix-like operating systems. Make can be used to manage any project where some files need to be updated automatically from others whenever the others change in addition to building programs.
Focus groupA focus group is a group interview involving a small number of demographically similar people or participants who have other common traits/experiences.
