Knowledge Granularity. A standardized system of classification for knowledge components (KC) is necessary to allow knowledge reuse within and between organizations. Such a classification system should decompose knowledge at an appropriate level of granularity so that knowledge can eventually be recombined. 3, record 5, English, - knowledge%20granularity

L'interface : forme de la communication. Le module interface traduit la représentation interne du système dans un langage compréhensible pour l'élève. [...] L'interface joue un grand rôle dans le succès de la communication du savoir, et ne doit pas être négligée, et ce pour 2 raisons principales : 1) l'interface permet de rendre la présentation plus ou moins compréhensible, et la créativité de cette interface peut être un élément crucial dans l'adaptation de l'élève au système, 2) les progrès technologiques des médias permettent de plus en plus l'utilisation d'outils sophistiqués dont le pouvoir de communication peut conduire le design du système tout entier. La compréhension d'un texte est déjà une tâche complexe, or les systèmes actuels ne sont pas encore en mesure de manipuler le langage naturel -> dans cette limite, la flexibilité varie en fonction de la granularité du savoir auquel chaque partie se rapporte. 3, record 5, French, - granularit%C3%A9%20du%20savoir

Despite having been around for well over a decade, this weapon has a visual aura of "Star Wars" about it that does not, however, detract from the general impression of practicality and good design. The design aspect carries over to the highly modular construction in which basic components can be combined and re-combined to produce any weapon type from sub-machine-gun to light machine-gun. 1, record 6, English, - modular%20construction

Apparue il y a largement plus de dix ans, cette arme jouit d'une sorte d'aura «Guerre des Étoiles» qui, par ailleurs, ne diminue en rien l'impression générale qu'elle donne d'être pratique et bien conçue. Sa modularité très poussée permet de combiner et de recombiner ses composants pour en faire aussi bien un pistolet-mitrailleur qu'une mitrailleuse légère. 3, record 6, French, - modularit%C3%A9
