• Analysis of phenomena – understanding relationships in the manifestation of phenomena
• Diagnosis of phenomena – paying attention to specifics emanating from analysis
• Prediction – knowing and understanding temporal and spatial conduct of phenomena
• Prescription – applying discriminant rules and practices to address and change spatio-temporal conduct of phenomena
• Adaptation to adjust and manage consequences of intervention
