Among the various process-mapping techniques used, a cross-functional process map(CFPM) is especially valuable. This type of map shows the steps and functional units involved in the completion of a specific process, thereby documenting the "what" and "who". CFPMs provide an in-depth understanding of the interactions among the various functions involved with each process and provide management with a vision of the organization they may never have been able to picture otherwise. 2, record 1, English, - cross%2Dfunctional%20process%20map

Magnetic bubble memory testers are used to examine bubble memory systems. Testers vary from unit to unit and in their ability to test memory devices of various capacities. Units can accommodate different memory architectures including serial, major/minor loop, block replicate, and even/odd configurations. They may offer capabilities for diagnostics testing(which isolates and defines design problems), device evaluation testing, and parallel functional testing. A computer may provide the central control and data collection functions for the magnetic bubble memory tester. The purpose of the loop status memory is to maintain a bit map of defective minor loops as they occur so that bubbles will be written into bad loops in later operations. This technique of maintaining minor loop status reduces test times. 1, record 2, English, - magnetic%20bubble%20memory%20tester

Now there's a more revealing way [than the org chart] to depict the people and operations within an organization-an approach called organigraph. The organigraph is not a chart. It is a map that offers an overview of the company's functions and the way people organize themselves at work. 1, record 3, English, - organigraph
