A configuration is an assemblage of components and parts that makes up a complete system.
Other than that, though, Musk's proposal is less a theoretical breakthrough than a shrewd assemblage of components, like a soap-box racer that a kid might build from materials in the barn (if the kid were Tom Swift).
The integrated micromorphological observation and binocular sorting allowed identification of a similar assemblage of components that are closely linked to distinctive anthropic microfacies.
The time-keeping mechanism in a clock, for example, is a relatively stable assemblage of components in relatively fixed locations that work the same way, with the same organizational features, each time it works.
In past efforts to coax such an assemblage of components to life, researchers have burned through dozens of donor eggs without getting any embryos even to the 16-cell stage at which stem cells become a remote possibility.
Respondents described their roles as modular assemblages of role components and "figuring out a role" as involving putting role components together to produce a mutually desirable role (I-2).
It encourages consumers to think of processed foods as fully formed objects, rather than as assemblages of disparate components.
The architecture and mechanics of an orogen can be understood in terms of a system of collages that are characterized by a complex assemblage of multiple components, but the fundamental paleogeographic framework and the tectonic relationships between the different components are often insufficiently defined, because of unavailable data.
But the point of these pictures is what Mann has on his head: a futuristic visor, an assemblage of electrical components and stray wires, a beetle-like antenna.
Assemblage of modular components can be altered according to the local migration schemes of agents, which include deployment behavior based on biological processes.
A study of tag read-out patterns, revealed their accurate read-out distance range, the optimal site of RFID-tag implantation, assemblage of its components, and dimensions of the primary coil.
