Processus unifiéLe processus unifié (PU), ou « unified process (UP) » en anglais, ou « Unified Software Development Process (USDP) » est une famille de méthodes de développement de logiciels orientés objets. Elle se caractérise par une démarche itérative et incrémentale, pilotée par les cas d'utilisation, et centrée sur l'architecture et les modèles UML. Elle définit un processus intégrant toutes les activités de conception et de réalisation au sein de cycles de développement composés d'une phase de création, d'une phase d'élaboration, d'une phase de construction et d'une phase de transition, comprenant chacune plusieurs itérations.
PaysUn pays est un territoire (habité en cas de pays souverain) constituant une entité géographique et humaine. Il est caractérisé par une langue officielle et bien souvent plusieurs autres langues secondaires (dialecte), parlées et écrites, utilisées par les habitants du pays ainsi que d'une capitale nationale où siègent les institutions de l'État tel que le lieu de pouvoir du gouvernement central (parlement, palais présidentiel etc).
ProfessionalA professional is a member of a profession or any person who works in a specified professional activity. The term also describes the standards of education and training that prepare members of the profession with the particular knowledge and skills necessary to perform their specific role within that profession. In addition, most professionals are subject to strict codes of conduct, enshrining rigorous ethical and moral obligations.
TradespersonA tradesperson is a skilled worker that specializes in a particular trade. Tradespeople usually gain their skills through work experience, on-the-job training, an apprenticeship program or formal education. As opposed to a craftsperson or an artisan, a tradesperson is not necessarily restricted to manual work. In Victorian England: The terms "skilled worker," "craftsman," "artisan," and "tradesman" were used in senses that overlap. All describe people with specialized training in the skills needed for a particular kind of work.
Periphery countriesIn world systems theory, the periphery countries (sometimes referred to as just the periphery) are those that are less developed than the semi-periphery and core countries. These countries usually receive a disproportionately small share of global wealth. They have weak state institutions and are dependent on – according to some, exploited by – more developed countries. These countries are usually behind because of obstacles such as lack of technology, unstable government, and poor education and health systems.
Rational unified processThe rational unified process (RUP) is an iterative software development process framework created by the Rational Software Corporation, a division of IBM since 2003. RUP is not a single concrete prescriptive process, but rather an adaptable process framework, intended to be tailored by the development organizations and software project teams that will select the elements of the process that are appropriate for their needs. RUP is a specific implementation of the Unified Process.
PolicyPolicy is a deliberate system of guidelines to guide decisions and achieve rational outcomes. A policy is a statement of intent and is implemented as a procedure or protocol. Policies are generally adopted by a governance body within an organization. Policies can assist in both subjective and objective decision making. Policies used in subjective decision-making usually assist senior management with decisions that must be based on the relative merits of a number of factors, and as a result, are often hard to test objectively, e.

Les politiques publiques sont la modalité d'action de la puissance publique. Jean-Claude Thoenig définit les politiques publiques comme les . Le terme prend un sens différent selon la discipline qui l'utilise.
Semi-periphery countriesIn world-systems theory, the semi-periphery countries (sometimes referred to as just the semi-periphery) are the industrializing, mostly capitalist countries which are positioned between the periphery and core countries. Semi-periphery countries have organizational characteristics of both core countries and periphery countries and are often geographically located between core and peripheral regions as well as between two or more competing core regions.
