Ordre totalEn mathématiques, on appelle relation d'ordre total sur un ensemble E toute relation d'ordre ≤ pour laquelle deux éléments de E sont toujours comparables, c'est-à-dire que On dit alors que E est totalement ordonné par ≤. Une relation binaire ≤ sur un ensemble E est un ordre total si (pour tous éléments x, y et z de E) : x ≤ x (réflexivité) ; si x ≤ y et y ≤ x, alors x = y (antisymétrie) ; si x ≤ y et y ≤ z, alors x ≤ z (transitivité) ; x ≤ y ou y ≤ x (totalité). Les trois premières propriétés sont celles faisant de ≤ une relation d'ordre.
Order isomorphismIn the mathematical field of order theory, an order isomorphism is a special kind of monotone function that constitutes a suitable notion of isomorphism for partially ordered sets (posets). Whenever two posets are order isomorphic, they can be considered to be "essentially the same" in the sense that either of the orders can be obtained from the other just by renaming of elements. Two strictly weaker notions that relate to order isomorphisms are order embeddings and Galois connections.
Ordre lexicographiqueEn mathématiques, un ordre lexicographique est un ordre que l'on définit sur les suites finies d'éléments d'un ensemble ordonné (ou, de façon équivalente, les mots construits sur un ensemble ordonné). Sa définition est une généralisation de l'ordre du dictionnaire : l'ensemble ordonné est l'alphabet, les mots sont bien des suites finies de lettres de l'alphabet. La principale propriété de l'ordre lexicographique est de conserver la totalité de l'ordre initial.
Conception participativeLa conception participative, ou coconception, que l'on retrouve couramment sous le terme codesign, co-design et design participatif, est une méthode de travail qui implique l'utilisateur final, lors d'un processus de développement et de conception d'un produit ou d'un service. Il s'agit donc d'une méthode de conception centrée sur l'utilisateur où l'accent est mis sur le rôle actif des utilisateurs.
Definitions of knowledgeDefinitions of knowledge try to determine the essential features of knowledge. Closely related terms are conception of knowledge, theory of knowledge, and analysis of knowledge. Some general features of knowledge are widely accepted among philosophers, for example, that it constitutes a cognitive success or an epistemic contact with reality and that propositional knowledge involves true belief. Most definitions of knowledge in analytic philosophy focus on propositional knowledge or knowledge-that, as in knowing that Dave is at home, in contrast to knowledge-how (know-how) expressing practical competence.
Design methodsDesign methods are procedures, techniques, aids, or tools for designing. They offer a number of different kinds of activities that a designer might use within an overall design process. Conventional procedures of design, such as drawing, can be regarded as design methods, but since the 1950s new procedures have been developed that are more usually grouped together under the name of "design methods". What design methods have in common is that they "are attempts to make public the hitherto private thinking of designers; to externalise the design process".
User experience designUser experience design (UX design, UXD, UED, or XD) is the process of defining the experience a user would go through when interacting with a company, its services, and its products. Design decisions in UX design are often driven by research, data analysis, and test results rather than aesthetic preferences and opinions. Unlike user interface design, which focuses solely on the design of a computer interface, UX design encompasses all aspects of a user's perceived experience with a product or website, such as its usability, usefulness, desirability, brand perception, and overall performance.
Knowledge marketA knowledge market is a mechanism for distributing knowledge resources. There are two views on knowledge and how knowledge markets can function. One view uses a legal construct of intellectual property to make knowledge a typical scarce resource, so the traditional commodity market mechanism can be applied directly to distribute it. An alternative model is based on treating knowledge as a public good and hence encouraging free sharing of knowledge. This is often referred to as attention economy.
Topologie de l'ordreEn mathématiques, la topologie de l'ordre est une topologie naturelle définie sur tout ensemble ordonné (E, ≤), et qui dépend de la relation d'ordre ≤. Lorsque l'on définit la topologie usuelle de la droite numérique R, deux approches équivalentes sont possibles. On peut se fonder sur la relation d'ordre dans R, ou sur la valeur absolue de la distance entre deux nombres. Les égalités ci-dessous permettent de passer de l'une à l'autre : La valeur absolue se généralise en la notion de distance, qui induit le concept de topologie d'un espace métrique.
Procedural knowledgeProcedural knowledge (also known as knowing-how, and sometimes referred to as practical knowledge, imperative knowledge, or performative knowledge) is the knowledge exercised in the performance of some task. Unlike descriptive knowledge (also known as declarative knowledge, propositional knowledge or "knowing-that"), which involves knowledge of specific facts or propositions (e.g. "I know that snow is white"), procedural knowledge involves one's ability to do something (e.g. "I know how to change a flat tire").
