[A] physical unclonable function (PUF, sometimes also called physically unclonable function) is a physical entity that is embodied in a physical structure and is easy to evaluate but hard to predict.

Il s’agit en fait des services que l'on retrouve dans tous les ministères(par exemple Finances et Administration). Le BT-194 donne fonctions auxiliaires comme équivalent de overhead functions. Dans la même note, le terme fonctions communes est aussi utilisé pour traduire overhead functions(«implementing plans for the rationalization and streamlining of departmental overhead functions»/«mettre en œuvre des plans de rationalisation des fonctions auxiliaires ou communes de chaque ministère. ») 1, record 3, French, - fonctions%20auxiliaires%20%28du%20ou%20des%20minist%C3%A8res%29

Record number: 6, Textual support number: 1 OBS
attributions : Le terme s’emploie au pluriel pour désigner la compétence d’un organisme ou d’un titulaire de fonction ou de charge. La définition qu'en donne le Trésor de la langue française est sans doute la plus complète et la plus claire :«[En parlant d’une personne ou d’un organisme exerçant une fonction partic. ] Droits, devoirs, pouvoirs liés à une fonction. »Le droit de type britannique a, en l'occurrence, une vision qui diffère de celle du droit romano-germanique. En effet, dans l'indication de ce qu'un administrateur ou un responsable déterminé «peut et doit faire», le légiste anglais emploie, seuls ou réunis en groupes de deux termes ou plus, les mots «powers, duties, functions» et «responsibilities». [...] Ainsi, dans certains contextes, «attributions» pourrait à lui seul rendre tout le groupe «powers, duties, functions and responsibilities». Dans d’autres, il rendrait très bien «responsibilities» seul, de même que «mission» ou «mandat» pourrait correspondre à tout ou partie de «duties, powers and responsibilities». Quant au mot «fonction», il équivaut aussi bien, à l'occasion, à «functions» qu'à «duties», surtout lorsque ce dernier terme désigne les éléments d’une analyse de poste. C'est donc toujours le contexte de la notion à exprimer qui doit guider le légiste dans le choix du terme juste. Pour mémoire, voici toutefois quelques équivalences : Emploi groupé. «Pouvoirs et fonctions» ou le plus souvent «attributions» correspondra aussi bien à «powers, duties, functions and responsibilities» qu'à «powers, duties and functions» ou «powers and duties». 5, record 6, French, - attributions
