علاقة مجدولة أو مصفوفة


Explanation:
Such a relationship is very common in organizations that adopts s matrix system, and hence called matrix organizations. The mentioned matrix relationship came early in the 1960s in USA to maximize and share the use of high technical resources.

I had made a research in Kuwait Institute Research - KISR in 1980's pertaining to adopting such matrix organization concept/system to share the usage of researchers in particular, and benefit from them in several projects in stead of hiring a researcher to work on each project under each particular program component and element.

The name came from the matrix of resources in a form of a table. An advanced version of the matrix concept I had developed at the time, is called a 3D matrix (Three dimension matrix system)

All the best, I hope this helps you reaching the right translation,
