Glossary of Terms
Value: “… an economic good has value; and the height of this value is measured according to the—marginal utility which one can obtain with
the unit of labor” (von Böhm-Bawerk 2005).
Variables: Properties, traits and attributes that change due to interactions,
that is, with EMMI.
Verification: The process of confirming the truth or accuracy by describing
the characteristics of interactions, the enactments of mechanisms or
procedures, or the consequences of EMMI.
Vignette: Vignettes are more detailed sequences of events that highlight
particulars about a scenario (a possible set of circumstances, conditions, and constraints, e.g., the environment of the future).
Want: A want is something that will solve the problem, but is not necessarily
possible, affordable, deliverable, or acceptable. A want is a desire, as
yet unfulfilled.
White box: White box method of testing focuses on the identification and
evaluation of the internal logic and procedures that are based on
knowledge of the workings and configuration of the internals of
the object.
Whole: The whole is the totality of the group, the aggregation, the combination,
or the integration. The whole is always greater than the sum of its parts.
A whole can be represented as an object, either physically or intellectually, or as a process, either procedurally or as activities (or acts).
