In mathematics, a continuum structure function (CSF) is defined by Laurence Baxter as a nondecreasing mapping from the unit hypercube to the unit interval. It is used by Baxter to help in the Mathematical modelling of the level of performance of a system in terms of the performance levels of its components.^[1][2][3]
