Across 2. To determine significance 4. The relationship between the size of an accurate representation of an object and the actual object itself 7. To determine a future outcome 8. The capacity of someone or something to help solve a problem 9. To determine whether or not a design, model process, system or theory meets the criteria as a possible solution 10. A series of steps that form a pathway to a solution 11. A specific task that a system or part of a system performs or is intended to perform 15. The use of a model to learn how a device, process or system will behave 16. Forming an opinion based on known facts or evidence 17. A possible explanation that can be tested with an experiment 20. The required action of a device, process or system 23. The inability of a device, process, or system to perform a required function 24. A suggestion about or connection to a future outcome that is not stated directly 25. What the design must do; may be used in place of criteria 28. Consistently repeating the same measurement procedures on a system or part of a system with the same tool used under the same conditions by the same person 29. Analyze a past course of action, process, or experience in order to generate a future improvement or modification 30. A diagram, replica, mathematical representation, analogy, or computer simulation used to analyze a system for condition flaws, test a solution, visualize or refine a design, and/or communicate design features 31. The consistent ability of a tool to reproduce the same measurement on a system under the same conditions no matter who operates the tool 32. The process of gathering or examining information systematically; generating data to provide evidence to support a claim based on a stated goal, predicted outcome, and planned course of action

Down 1. A strong effect or influence on someone or something 2. Data used to support a claim 3. An exchange of one idea for another that may involve losing a quality or aspect of a design 5. A model that tests design performance 6. A logical, objective thought process based on data, information, and evidence to form a conclusion or judgement 12. To become aware of an occurrence using senses 13. Non-measurable and described through observations; subjective 14. The quality of being reproducible in amount or performance 18. A detailed written record specific to the criteria needed to solve the problem; the technical information about “what” is need ed to solve the problem but not the “how” to solve it 19. A situation to be changed; a question raised for inquiry, consideration, or solution 20. A systematic approach to solving a problem 21. The ability of a device, processor system to perform an intended function without failure for a given time under specific operating conditions 22. Measurable and can be represented in numerical form; objective 26. An idea or set of ideas used to explain a fact or event 27. To improve through small changes
