Facts and rules Statements involving the names—definitions of them (such as constant or type or class definitions) and constraints (such as invariants, pre- and postconditions, and cardinalities of associations). Facts can be stated pictorially—in the forms of all the static type models, action diagrams, and state charts that we have been discussing—or in text. 

The idea of joining class definitions isn t something you find in a programming language. By the time you get to compilation, it s assumed you ve chosen your program code and there is no need to automatically compose it with any other code. 

A component package, by definition, includes definitions of the interfaces it provides as well as the interfaces it requires a traditional single class definition focuses on the operations provided and not on the operations required. 

Java retains an explicit runtime representation of class, interface, and method definitions in its compiled class form the reflection API is a facility for accessing this information. For every class that is loaded into a running system, Java instantiates a single instance of the predefined class Class. There is a static method for dynamically loading any class based on its name and several methods for examining the structure of a class definition. 

SIMCA uses PCA to model the shape and position of the object formed by the samples in row space for class definition. A multidimensional box is constructed for each class and the classification of future samples (prediction) is performed by determining within which box, if any, the sample lies. Tltis is in contrast to KNN, where only the physical closeness of samples in space is used for ckssification. 

SIMG uses the shape and position of tlie object formed by the samples in a class for class definition.

The modularity of the model class definition process allows the modeler to make use of preexisting classes or to gradually define new ones. This feature combined with the communicative properties of the semantic relations makes possible the modification or upgrading of a model class with the minimum of effort. 

A number of sets of the Classification Manual are located at a desk near the 14th Street entrance. There is also a complete set of class definitions in loose-leaf binders, arranged in numerical order at the start and close of each business day. Nearby is an important card file, listing the class and subclass of every United States patent (the entries are in pencil). 

Then, by looking up the detailed explanation of each of the preliminary list of subclass numbers in the book of class definitions, one obtains an expanded list by adding such further subclasses as are cross-referenced there. 

Generally, it will save time to locate subclasses through patent numbers obtained from Chemical Abstracts, rather than via the index to the manual and the class definitions. This is in part due to the complexity of many of the definitions, which tend to be more confusing than clarifying until one has become thoroughly familiar with the method and style of presentation. 

This is not the case with classes. A class is a category in the human mind. Take, as an example, the class of red balls. Many different items are members of the class of red balls] tomatoes, one particular sort of billiard-ball, the setting sun, etc. The class definition is only true for any subject being red and globose. Nothing more no predictions of other characters can be made, just red and globose. And classes cannot evolve. 

Specifications may be given for the amount of other elements that are allowed to be present. Such specifications allow minor amounts of elements not specifically listed in the class definition to be present, but they place an upper limit on the allowable amount. 

Involving Antibody or Fragment thereof Produced by Recombinant DNA Technology This subclass is indented under the class definition. Subject matter involves an antibody or fragment thereof produced by recombinant DNA technology. 

Model entities can be represented through classes in OWL their instances are called individuals. Classes can be hierarchically ordered in OWL, thereby allowing multiple inheritance. Complex class definitions can be constructed... 

Entities are represented through classes, which can be ordered by means of superclasses and metaclasses. Class definitions can include attributes, possibly restricted through facets, as well as methods and laws. Different types of attributes are distinguished. Among those, so-called relational attributes can be used to represent binary relations between classes. Attributes values can be restricted through both facets and laws. Methods represent numerical or symbolical functions that allow to derive complex properties of an object from known (simple) ones by executing some procedural piece of code. 

Process models on the instance layer are intended to be used for different applications such as simulation or automation. Thus, the Process Ontology must be sufficiently rich to enable process models to provide the information relevant for the applications. For this purpose, the class definitions of the Work Process module and the type-specific modules can be enhanced by a set of attributes. For instance, a Control Flow can be characterized by the percentage by which the preceding Activity must be completed before the subsequent Activity can start. Exemplary attributes of a Reactor are its volume or its maximum operating pressure. 

A key issne concerns the treatment of roles a molecular entity can adopt. Rather than performing multiple inheritance from a protein and catalyst class (static multiple inheritance), for example, to derive an enzyme subclass, we instead combine the role object catalysis with the metabolic entity protein through aggregation (dynamic mnltiple inheritance). Thus, the metabolic entity maintains a list of the roles it can assnme along with the context for each role for instance, a protein may assume the role of catalyst for a given instance of a reaction class. In this way, the protein object can adopt differing roles (e.g., catalyst, transporter) in different scenarios. Also, an object can acqnire additional roles easily as they are discovered without having to modify or rebuild its class definition. 

Each hazard class has associated placards and labels identifying the hazards of the class during transportation. Each hazard class and associated placard has a color, which indicates a particular hazard. Hazardous materials may have more than one hazard. It is important to note that the placard on a transport vehicle depicts only the most severe hazard of a material as determined by DOT hazard class definitions. When a material has more than one hazard, the DOT prioritizes the hazard that will be placarded. These hazards are listed by the DOT in 49 CFR 173.2a (see Figure 1.7) to determine which hazard will be assigned to a particular material when the material has multiple hazards. 

The basic class definitions and other infrastructure are provided in the Biobase package. The base class is the eSet and it has places to store assay data, phenotypic information, and data about the features that were measured and about the experiment that was performed to collect these data. This basic class can then be extended in many different ways, specializing in some of the inputs, and in some cases adding new slots that are relevant to a specific type of experiment. The eSet class has been extended to support expression data, SNP data, and genomic annotation. For expression data the ExpressionSet class has been defined, and it too is quite general. The class can be used for any sort of expression (and is in no way restricted to microarray experiments for mRNA expression, although that is where it is used most). Similar data structures have been used for representing data from experiments in protein mass spectrometry and flow cytometry.

The observation that features enriched in sets of active compounds irrespective of potency enables retrieval of highly potent compounds also supports the usage of feature weights extracted from NBM to identify compound-class characteristic molecular features. So far, we have discussed only activity classes, but any way to group molecules can be used to identify features that preferentially occur in desired groups of compounds. Other examples of compound class definition include ADME characteristics [24], toxicity [21 ], clinical ADRs [35], or chemical...
