  Note :

  Strictly speaking, a hierarchy is the same as a rooted tree structure (i.e. every element, except one, has a single predecessor).

  Terme :

  1. hierarchy

  However, the term is often used more loosely to refer to any partially ordered system. In particular, the term hierarchy has been used to describe directed acyclic graphs, as in the case of a tangled hierarchy.
