Problem recognition
The process of turning data, possibly obtained from quite diverse sources, into meaningful information.
A computational shortcut to provide an algorithm with something of a head start when dealing with a complex problem.
A practice in which the output of one process performed upon data constitutes the input of the next process.
A method of problem-solving that entails iteratively breaking a problem into more manageable problems, then either solving them or breaking them down further.
An icon on a digital map that represents a station, rather than a miniature plan of the entire station, is an example of this.
A graphical representation of some numbers, or a diagram to show interconnectedness between related themes, is an example of this.
The ability to see that a situation needs to be addressed, and that there may be a specific means of addressing it.
Usually an early step in solving a problem, this is the means by which is it broken into smaller problems.
Method of problem solving based around simulations and mathematical approximations
Process of breaking down a problem into simple steps that a computer can understand
