⇤--1: . The process description covers the phases of the RA process all the way until the product of the RA, i.e. the (causal) description of reality, is complete. the last step in the chain, called good quality causal network, means that in the description the variables and their relations are defined up to the level of being adequate quality, including the variable definitions (i.e. contents of the attributes. Therefore it does cover the phase of execution or assessment itself, but does not explicitly cover reporting, treating it as a separate phase after completion of the description. The process chain going from purpose, users & uses to good quality causal network actually attempts to describe the evolution of the product as the process that manipulates it progresses rather than identifying steps of the process itself. The description is built on the assumption that defining the relations between variables goes hand-in-hand with defining the variable contents in an iterative manner, and that they can not be separated into first choosing variables and defining their relations and second defining the variable contents (relations are, in fact variable contents). --Mikko 10:53, 7 August 2007 (EEST) (type: truth; paradigms: science: attack)
