Root Definition
A full root definitions core transformation would be
a system to do P by Q in order to achieve R
What to do (P)? How to do it (Q)? Why do it (R)?
It tells us
what the system will do,
how it is to be done, and
why it is being done (its long term aims). The root definition will be a short paragraph which
will contain all the necessary information to describethe system including do P by Q in order tocontribute to achieving R
