Declarative code

Computer code, which is descriptive, so it can be read and understood without having to run the program to find out what its purpose is, is known as declarative code.

Assuming that standard codes of conduct, for example, the Nuremburg Code (1947) and the World Medical Association s Declaration of Helsinki, are followed by researchers, the element of consent will already have been satisfied. In fact, as far as the element of consent to the intrusion into privacy goes, the medical community s doctrine of informed consent is a very strict application of the element of consent. We may note that the specific informed consent of an individual human subject of research may not be adequate to the decisions surrounding data mining. 

Types that define the behavior expected at the interfaces to classes. Classes implement types. In some design styles, all parameters and variables are declared with types classes are referred to in the code only to instantiate new objects, and even that is encapsulated within factory objects. 

Containment In Smalltalk, Eiffel, and Java, all variables contain references to other objects—implicit pointers that enable objects to be shared and allow the uses of an object to be decoupled from its size and the details of its internal declaration. In C++, some variables are explicit pointers, and others contain complete objects. The latter arrangement yields faster code but no polymorphism f)that is, one class is tied to using one specific other. This is not a generic design. In general, we consider containment to be a special and less usual case. 

After we have rid every declaration of any explicit mention of a class, we find that there are still one or two class names lurking in the code. 

The Declaration of Geneva of the World Medical Association binds the physician with the words the health of my patient will be my first consideration, and the International Code of Medical Ethics declares that medical progress is based on research, which ultimately must rest in part on experimentation involving human subjects. In medical research on human subjects, considerations related to the well being of the human subject should take precedence over the interests of science and society. ...

The procedures for assuring quality of clinical trials have evolved over the past 30 years, culminating in several published guidelines. There are three key documents - the GCP guidelines of the ICH, the Code of Federal Regulations (21 CFR) of the United States and the Declaration of Helsinki. " ... 

A very useful review of the history and development of the Declaration of Helsinki in the last four decades from its evolution from the principles enunciated in the Nuremberg Code of 1947 to the current version has been published in the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and is recommended reading, it includes the texts of the various versions of the Declaration.

Some of the requirements of the Code are not necessarily related to promotion. Examples include declaration of sponsorship in Clause 9.10, certain aspects of the provision of medicines and samples in Clause 17 and the provision of information to the public in clause 20. 

For more than 50 years, scientists, physicians, bioethi-cists, and the media have focused on a variety of issues in research with human subjects, or clinical research. In 1948, in response to the atrocities perpetrated by Nazi experimentation, the Nuremberg Code was developed to set forth guidelines for the acceptable conduct of scientific research. In 1964 the World Medical Association adopted the Declaration of Helsinki, which specifically guides physicians in biomedical research. These documents specify basic moral guidelines ultimately founded on concerns for autonomy, beneficence, and justice. The guidelines require the following ... 

In addition to the Nuremberg Code and Declaration of Helsinki, The International Ethical Guidelines for Biomedical Research Involving Human Subjects was issued in 1982 and revised in 1993 by the Council for the International Organization of Medical Sciences (CIOMS). Those guidelines define national policies for biomedical research, apply ethical standards to the circumstances often present in research in economically developing nations, and define mechanisms for ethical review of human subjects research.

Cases where decision makers have made decisions on the basis of their private interests (generated, for example, by bribes from developers) do not refute this, since such practices are recognized as corrupt and contrary to how the decisions should be made. Those who make planning decisions have to abide by a code of conduct which requires that they declare if they have a personal interest in the matter and withdraw from the discussion and decision if that interest could be considered to be prejudicial (Committee on Standards in Public Life, 1997). 

Today, reference to the PP can be found in several international agreements and declarations. However, the description of the PP that has had the greatest impact can be found in the Rio Declaration from the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janeiro, and the Swedish government repeatedly referred to it when it proposed the Unified Environmental Code of 1998 to the Parliament.

The AZT trials triggered the revision and elaboration of documents such as the Declaration of Helsinki, the CIOMS-WHO Guidelines, a new report of the NBAC of the U.S. The battlefields of the standard of treatment debate were research ethical codes. The revision of the Declaration of Helsinki (WMA 2000) at the end of the 1990s is an... 

Proposing this new criterion in a document like the Declaration of Helsinki implies a policy that should rule all research being done. Note that the Declaration of Helsinki is "the" ethical code. It morally binds all researchers and should be abided by research ethics committees when evaluating protocols and sustained as a requirement when publishing an article. Hence, changing the standard of care in such a document would have a profound impact on research. It would imply a new normative criterion for all research. 

What have we learned so far The first issue has to do with the scope that the modification of standards would imply. The double standard as a criterion is broader than the scope that appeared to guide the initial reflections. It began by targeting AIDS but quickly pervaded all research. It has affected not only standards of treatment, but also the placebo debate. If it had been introduced into ethical codes like the Declaration of Helsinki, it would have implied a "universal policy" regulating all research.

At the very top of Figure 12.15 is an abstract class Lsi. Lsi is the base class of all concrete Lsi classes—Parent ID, Compound ID and Sample ID. All of its methods are declared abstract. It defines common interfaces of the component and composite in the Lsi class hierarchy. Parent ID is the smallest possible unit and therefore is a component. Both Compound ID and Sample ID can have another type of Lsi as a component and therefore are composites. The source code of the abstract base class Lsi is as follows ... 

The class first declares a set of static variables for holding the entity dictionaries. Its private constructor and the static getlnstance() method make it a Singleton. Its load...() methods call EntityDictinaryDao to load the entity dictionaries from the data source. Let us again use personnel dictionary as an example. The code snippet of the loadPersonnel() method is as follows ... 

A few abstract protected methods are left to the concrete mapper object to implement. They are declared in AbstractMapper so that they can be called by the Template Methods to maximize code reuse. 

The genetic code invariance persuaded evolutionists to throw the first shy proponents of polyphyletic models into the dungeons.17, 18 The contention that chance would not have provided even for two origins with an identical triplet codon for protein synthesis was then and still is absolutely correct and certainly relevant, but the conclusion reached because of it by nearly everyone was not. Multiple origins were declared impossible whereas chance should have been disqualified as an inappropriate term in this equation (which it is), and this was the error that has dominated thinking for more than 150 years and is still defended with vehemence. 

As a preliminary matter, the nonprovisional patent application, whether filed in the United States directly or when it enters the U.S. national stage via the PCT, requires that all applicants must be inventors and all of the inventors names and addresses must be provided with the patent application. This is in contrast to many other patent jurisdictions, where the applicant can be a business entity, such as the company an inventor may have assigned his invention to. Additionally, all nonprovisional patent applications require an oath or declaration of inventorship to be included with the patent application or submitted within the prescribed time thereafter. The requirements of the oath or declaration of inventorship are explained in 37 CFR 1.63-1.69. Initial entry of patent applications to the United States from the PCT are governed by the Code as outlined in 35 U.S.C. 371 National stage Commencement.
