Computer hardware, selection

But applications usually need a different type of computing environment. The reasoning task, accomplished by AI techniques, often constitutes ten percent or less of the code of an application. The majority of the code is for conventional programming tasks, such as data acquisition, data base access, numerical calculations, and graphics. In each application domain, computer hardware and software has been selected to match the needs of its tasks. In... 

Select a medium for your newsletter, such as a traditional paper newsletter or an electronic version for the Internet. For a traditional newsletter, you will need to decide on methods of production and distribution. For an electronic version, you will need to use computer hardware and software. 

Based on the identification of operational functions and design, computer hardware technologies can be selected. Depending on available technology and cost, automated functions can be assign to the computer hardware or software. Computer hardware can be further decomposed into a number of subelements. Processor, memory, I/O and networks are some examples. 

Proper functioning and performance of equipment play a major role in obtaining consistency, reliability and accuracy of analytical data. Therefore equipment should be properly selected, designed, installed, and operated, and the correct function and performance should be verified before and during operation. This holds for equipment hardware, computer hardware, hardware interfaces, and software and computer systems. Qualification of equipment hardware is well established and has been described by several authors [1-4], and typically users in analytical laboratories are quite familiar with testing equipment for hardware specifications. 

Technology-based AAC systems have taken two forms hardware designed specifically for this application and software that runs on mass market computer hardware. Three basic components comprise AAC systems. These are the language representation method (including acceleration techniques), the user interface, and the outputs. Generally, a multidisciplinary team evaluates the current and projected skills and needs of the individual, determines the most effective language representation method(s) and physical access technique (s), and then selects a system with characteristics that are a good match. 

Selection of computer hardware should be one of the last steps in the purchase of any computer system. The software provides instructions for the hardware, and without the proper software, the most impressive... 

The evolution of the numerical approaches used for solving the PNP equations has paralleled the evolution of computing hardware. The numerical solution to the PNP equations evolved over the time period of a couple of decades beginning with the simulation of extremely simplified structures " ° to fully three-dimensional models, and with the implementation of sophisticated variants of the algorithmic schemes to increase robustness and performance. Even finite element tetrahedral discretization schemes have been employed successfully to selectively increase the resolution in regions inside the channels. An important aspect of the numerical procedures described is the need for full self-consistency between the force field and the charge distribution in space. It is obtained by coupling a Poisson solver to the Nernst-Planck solver within the iteration scheme described. 

The control trailer houses the remote systems for the MMD-1 operations. Inside the control trailer is the monitoring room that contains the NRT (MINICAMS) racks and then-respective support equipment. The control trailer also houses the remote system for the process trailer VIKING Gas Chromatograph/Mass Selective Detector (GC/MSD). The remote VIKING GC/MSD system includes the associated computer hardware and software to perform remote operations.
