a parameter whose window is wide

Robust (adjective) means: a parameter whose window is wide. It emerges from parameter, window, wide: The condition of a parameter defines a range as a window, which can be wide, and remains open despite drift due to the structural permissiveness of windows.opening. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 8, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
