What is the "Reach Method" of maqam music?


There are several wikipedia pages for maqams (Rast, Segah, etc) that make reference to the "reach method" with no other information out there has anyone heard of this?

From the page on Segah - "This is the third mode and consists of 0.5-1-1 tone which is created in amalgamation of three tetra-chords with the reach method."

Just curious!

To be honest, the wiki pages for makams have a pretty big lack of information, especially the "list of turkish makams" I've been considering signing up on wikipedia and filling in more as I learn more makams and alter current ones with some mroe accessable information for any other blind users.
