<p dir="auto"><strong>Process impact:</strong> This document is a brief and fairly technical
discussion of how the system works under ideal conditions. It is also
known as a "theory of operation" document. It should describe key
algorithms, technology dependencies, and operational issues. Much of the
content of this document can be drawn from design documents. This
document will be used by the QA, technical support, and operations
groups. The goal is to give those groups the information they need to
understand, manage, or begin to troubleshoot the system (i.e., recognize
certain behavior as normal or abnormal). If significantly more
information is needed, it should be organized into a larger "operations
guide".</p>
