A point of contact (POC) or single point of contact (SPOC) is a person or a department serving as the coordinator or focal point of information concerning an activity or program. A POC is used in many cases where information is time-sensitive and accuracy is important.
A single point of failure (SPOF) is a part of a system that would stop the entire system from working if it were to fail. [1] The term single point of failure implies that there is not a backup or redundant option that would enable the system to continue to function without it.
A service desk is a primary IT function within the discipline of IT service management (ITSM) as defined by ITIL. It is intended to provide a Single Point of Contact (SPOC) to meet the communication needs of both users and IT staff, [7] and also to satisfy both Customer and IT Provider objectives.
Contact force or pressure increases the size of the a-spot which decreases the constriction resistance and the electrical contact resistance. [11] When the size of contacting asperities becomes larger than the mean free path of electrons, Holm-type contacts become the dominant transport mechanism, resulting in a relatively low contact ...
In information science and information technology, single source of truth (SSOT) architecture, or single point of truth (SPOT) architecture, for information systems is the practice of structuring information models and associated data schemas such that every data element is mastered (or edited) in only one place, providing data normalization to ...
FMEA is an inductive reasoning (forward logic) single point of failure analysis and is a core task in reliability engineering, safety engineering and quality engineering. A successful FMEA activity helps identify potential failure modes based on experience with similar products and processes—or based on common physics of failure logic.
Contact between a sphere and an elastic half-space and one-dimensional replaced model. Some contact problems can be solved with the method of dimensionality reduction (MDR). In this method, the initial three-dimensional system is replaced with a contact of a body with a linear elastic or viscoelastic foundation (see fig.).
A contact force is any force that occurs because of two objects making contact with each other. [1] Contact forces are very common and are responsible for most visible interactions between macroscopic collections of matter. Pushing a car or kicking a ball are some of the everyday examples where contact forces are at work.
