Informal specification

The degree of that specificity depends on the number of sites and processes involved, as well as what resources are available to you. You should in any case consider internal communications in two distinct but related forms broad information applicable companywide, and information specific to a given... 

This case study illustrates how the methodologies described in Chapter 6 can be used to analyze plant incidents and identify the root causes of the problems. Based on this information, specific error reduction strategies can be developed to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future. Also, the findings of such an analysis can provide the basis for more general discussions about the prevalence of similar error inducing conditions in other plant areas. 

These techniques help in providing the following information specific heat, enthalpy changes, heat of transformation, crystallinity, melting behavior, evaporation, sublimation, glass transition, thermal decomposition, depolymerization, thermal stability, content analysis, chemical reactions/polymerization linear expansion, coefficient, and Young s modulus, etc. 

Monitoring and Managing Adverse Reactions Managing adverse reactions in patients taking antitubercular drug s is an important responsibility of die nurse The nurse must continuously observe for signs of adverse reactions and immediately report them to tlie primary health care provider. Some information specific to die different antitubercular drug s is provided below. 

Then to account for the fact that the actual dissipation depends on ESR, which increases substantially at low temperatures, a derating on the allowed RMS voltage is introduced. So at +5°C, we need to derate the RMS voltage by -7%, at -15°C by -15%, at -35°C by -20%, and at -55°C by -30%. But you may need to talk to your vendor to get information specific to his or her part. Everybody has differing guidelines since the technologies are quite diverse. 

We wondered about the nature of the corematal message. Was HD simply the male s way of announcing his presence to the female, or was the molecule conveying more subtle information Specifically, we asked whether the derivation of a pheromone from phytotoxin might have... 

Parasitoid wasps are the most widely studied group of insect parasites. Female wasps lay an egg(s) on or in an insect and the progeny develop utilizing that insect as their sole food source, eventually killing the host. Female parasitoids tend to be host specific and typically exploit a specific host immature life stage (e.g., egg, larvae, or pupae). Most parasitoid wasps are relatively small. Females actively seek out multiple hosts and can find and parasitize host insects in cryptic habitats. There is a wide range of species that attack stored-product insects and a considerable body of research on these natural enemies, only some of which are covered here [see Godfray (1994) for more information on parasitoids and Brower et al. (1995) and Scholler and Flinn (2000) for reviews of information specifically on stored product parasitoids]. 

Write a dictionary of terms and improve your informal specifications. 

Positive and Negative. When reviewing concrete example of behaviors and states, include both an example that is valid according to the spec, and one that is invalid. Include the constraints imposed by static and dynamic invariants. Generalize from the invalid ones, and discuss how the informal specification prohibits them. Similarly, generalize the required valid cases, and discuss how the formal specification enforces them. 

Treatment information specific to -hexane exposure was not located. Treatment of acute exposure to /7-hcxanc would be similar to that for other aliphatic hydrocarbons. 

Exposure Levels in Environmental Media. Reliable monitoring data for the levels of di- -octylphthalate in contaminated media at hazardous waste sites are needed so that the information obtained on levels of di-ra-octylphthalate in the environment can be used in combination with the known body burden of di-w-octylphthalate to assess the potential risk of adverse health effects in populations living in the vicinity of hazardous waste sites. Di-u-octylphthalate has been detected in ambient air, rain, surface water, groundwater, and sediment. However, as a result of the confusion about the nomenclature for octylphthalate esters, much of the historical monitoring data available actually pertain to the branched isomer, di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (Vista Chemical 1992). Therefore, little current information specific to the /1-octyl isomer is available regarding concentrations of the compound in foods, drinking water, and environmental media, particularly with respect to media at hazardous waste sites. The lack of monitoring data precludes the estimation of human exposure via intake of or contact with contaminated media. 

The goal of ECAT is to provide assistance to the user of a chromatograph in the development of an HPLC method. To do this, one must specify the tasks performed in developing an analytical method. The computer performs these tasks by processing information. In ECAT we are calling the collection of information specific to a task a Module. The modules and information flow which will be needed for the completely implemented ECAT are shown in Figure 2. 

Fact books are collections of publicly available information specific to each of the approximately 200 Evergreen study firms over the period from 1985 to 1995, and comprise written reports and commentaries drawn from a number of sources. These sources include reports by journalists and analysts, as well as other publicly available sources. 

The data on the photoexcited triplets are a potential source of structural information. Specifically, dimerization effects on zfs s and kinetics may be of aid in the characterization of special pair... 

In all living cells, DNA serves to store genetic information. Specific segments of DNA ( genes ) are transcribed as needed into RNAs, which either carry out structural or catalytic tasks themselves or provide the basis for synthesizing proteins (see p.82). In the latter case, the DNA codes for the primary structure of proteins. The language used in this process has four letters (A, G, C, and T). All of the words ( codons ) contain three letters ( triplets ), and each triplet stands for one of the 20 proteinogenic amino acids. 

Of the various synthetic processes that are available, two are of most relevance in the present context - precipitation from aqueous solution and melt forming. These methods are used where it is not possible to produce adequate products directly from natural sources. This will be because there is no suitable mineral, due to the chemical nature of the product, of particle size and shape requirements, or to purity considerations. The other principal synthetic method in use for filler production is pyrolysis/combustion. This type of process in which the particles are formed in the gas phase is used where very small particles are required, such as with carbon blacks and some silicas. This type of filler is not widely used in thermoplastics and so these processes are not discussed in any detail here, although some information specific to the production of antimony oxide will be found later. 

Peritoneal Dialyis There is no information specific to administration of VALTREX in patients receiving peritoneal dialysis. The effect of chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CARD) and continuous arteriovenous hemofiltration/dialysis (CAVHD) on acyclovir pharmacokinetics has been studied. The removal of acyclovir after CARD and CAVHD is less pronounced than with hemodialysis, and the pharmacokinetic parameters closely resemble those observed in patients with ESRD not receiving hemodialysis. Therefore, supplemental doses of VALTREX should not be required following CARD or CAVHD. 

It should be mentioned that reflection-absorption IR (RAIR) spectra of similarly prepared but thicker DMDMS and DMDES films show incomplete hydrolysis [4], These results are not contradictory to our IETS findings IETS probes the first one or two monolayers most effectively, and therefore provides information specific to the interface, whereas the RAIRS data for thicker films (at least several monolayers) will include bulk lines which may obscure those due to near-surface moieties.
