A. The coordinates

The two-dimensional presentation of the indices determined by the 'Impact Matrix' reflects the position of each variable in between the four corners ACTIVE - CRITICAL - REACTIVE - BUFFERING. Because of lacking space the variables here are only shown by their figures in white circles.

The assignment of the coordinates according to the active-sums (ordinate) and passive-sums (absciss) depends on the overall number (n) of variables which here is taken into account automatically.

The code of the matrix (A, B, C etc. or Consensus) to which the graphic refers is given on the left above it. To the left of the graphic also appears:

• • The total number of the assigned value points (as a measure for the strength of the systems interlinkage)
  • K-Value Deviation: The deviation of this sum from the average as a measure for the critical position of the system as a whole (an average K-value is supposed to be (n-1)2
  • The highest value of an active or passive sum (referring to the limits of the net of coordinates).
