.
general validation adn specific validation
general-use of models
specific-fitting system in specific context
general verification and specfic verification
general-satisfy criteria mentioned in standards
specific, satisfy specific requirements of the client
stratergy for information processing
minimize information flow (between elements and subsystems)
maximise information fields (aspect systems)
effective communication, 5 factors
message should be-concise attention clear credible good timing
