However, these requirements go further than merely controlling the devices used for measurement. They address the measurements themselves, the selection of the devices for measurement and also apply to devices which create product features, if they are used for product verification purposes. If you rely on jigs, tools, fixtures, templates, patterns, etc. to form shapes or other characteristics and have no other means of verifying the shape achieved, these devices become a means of verification. If you use software to control equipment, simulate the environment or operational conditions, or carry out tests and you rely on that software doing what it is supposed to do, without any separate means of checking the result, the quality of such software becomes critical to product verification. In fact the requirements apply to metrology as a whole rather than being limited to the equipment that is used to obtain the measurement and therefore a more appropriate title of the section would be Control of measurements . 

If the sequence of a protein has more than 90% identity to a protein with known experimental 3D-stmcture, then it is an optimal case to build a homologous structural model based on that structural template. The margins of error for the model and for the experimental method are in similar ranges. The different amino acids have to be mutated virtually. The conformations of the new side chains can be derived either from residues of structurally characterized amino acids in a similar spatial environment or from side chain rotamer libraries for each amino acid type which are stored for different structural environments like beta-strands or alpha-helices. 

Chemical and electrochemical techniques have been applied for the dimensionally controlled fabrication of a wide variety of materials, such as metals, semiconductors, and conductive polymers, within glass, oxide, and polymer matrices (e.g., [135-137]). Topologically complex structures like zeolites have been used also as 3D matrices [138, 139]. Quantum dots/wires of metals and semiconductors can be grown electrochemically in matrices bound on an electrode surface or being modified electrodes themselves. In these processes, the chemical stability of the template in the working environment, its electronic properties, the uniformity and minimal diameter of the pores, and the pore density are critical factors. Typical templates used in electrochemical synthesis are as follows ... 

Templates made of surfactants are very effective in order to control the size, shape, and polydispersity of nanosized metal particles. Surfactant micelles may enclose metal ions to form amphiphilic microreactors (Figure 11a). Water-in-oil reverse micelles (Figure 11b) or larger vesicles may function in similar ways. On the addition of reducing agents such as hydrazine nanosized metal particles are formed. The size and the shape of the products are pre-imprinted by the constrained environment in which they are grown. 

The salt- and Cu2+-catalysed condensation of peptides provides a very simple polymerisation reaction with remarkable efficiency at 80°C. The proposed mechanism is shown in Figure 8.17 for the dimerisation of glycine. The presence of Cu2+ is important in this process and is unlikely to be present in the geothermal vent environment but it does require only small quantities of O2 to oxidise copper. A better condensation reaction would be autocatalytic and provide a template for future generations - in short, a genetic code.
