1) In data management structures or communication protocols, the degree of subordination in a hierarchy. 2) Measurement of signal power at a specific point in a circuit.
A number indicating how many pictures separate a shape from the root picture in a picture hierarchy.
A collection of subunits (components, parts, elements) belonging to an entity. Also, a step in a sequence of subdivisions. A representation of scale in a hierarchical structure (Salthe 1985) A section of a hierarchy which is defined by a scale: many different entities may be observed at a given scale (see also level of resolution) (Allen and Starr 1982) The first level of (L1) of an hierarchical system is the subset of variables which are supremal with respect to the partial order on S (the system) (Voorhees 1983).
A technology subset that is one of a hierarchy of nested subsets, ranging from minimal or core functionality to full or complete functionally.
The attribute groupings within the NVIS Information Hierarchy that recognise information of similar spatial, structural, growth form and floristic detail. NVIS
a collection of members which have the same distance from the root of the hierarchy
a group of Member s in a Hierarchy , all with the same attributes and at the same depth in the hierarchy
an element of a dimension hierarchy
a step of aggregation in a hierarchy
Logical division in the security tree hierarchy
A branch within a dimension. The levels are numbered incrementally from the leaf member (level 0) to the root.
A position in a hierarchy. For example, a time dimension might have a hierarchy that represents data at the Month, Quarter, and Year levels. See Also: hierarchy
An object that contains common or default attributes for all its member categories. When users drill down on a dimension, they can drill down on categories from one level to another.
The name of a set of members in a dimension hierarchy such that all members of the set are at the same distance from the root of the hierarchy. For example, a time hierarchy may contain the levels Year, Month, and Day.
the place of a qualification in the higher education system. Normally, a national hierarchy of qualifications exists. The number of levels of higher education qualifications vary between countries and/or kinds of higher education (see LEVEL INDICATORS).
The number of rows between a given row and the root row in a database table in which the rows' data values imply a hierarchy. The root row is considered level 1, its children rows are level 2, and so on.
Levels are defined within a dimension to specify the contents and structure of the dimension's hierarchy. For example, a Calendar dimension contains the levels Year, Quarter, and Month.
