Operability. Hidden costs may result from changes in the way a process operates as a result of a control. For example, enclosure and isolation may diminish the abiUty of workers to observe the process. Upsets and dismptions resulting from this loss of intelligence are expensive and generate resistance to the use of these controls, no matter how effective. 

ICP-OES is one of the most successful multielement analysis techniques for materials characterization. While precision and interference effects are generally best when solutions are analyzed, a number of techniques allow the direct analysis of solids. The strengths of ICP-OES include speed, relatively small interference effects, low detection limits, and applicability to a wide variety of materials. Improvements are expected in sample-introduction techniques, spectrometers that detect simultaneously the entire ultraviolet—visible spectrum with high resolution, and in the development of intelligent instruments to further improve analysis reliability. ICPMS vigorously competes with ICP-OES, particularly when low detection limits are required. 

One important human problem-solving strategy is the application of imagination or intelligent use of a chain of hypotheses to guide the search for an effective line of retrosynthetic analysis. This inductive problem-solving dimension has been discussed previously. 

Traditional control systems are in general based on mathematical models that describe the control system using one or more differential equations that define the system response to its inputs. In many cases, the mathematical model of the control process may not exist or may be too expensive in terms of computer processing power and memory. In these cases a system based on empirical rules may be more effective. In many cases, fuzzy control can be used to improve existing controller systems by adding an extra layer of intelligence to the current control method. 

Security is intended to frustrate thinking people, and it will be obvious that its effectiveness will be determined by the strength of its weakest part. Care must always be taken to ensure that there is no known vulnerable point, since this will be exploited to the full, thereby nullifying the security equipment otherwise provided. Once the standard of security has been determined it must be uniformly and intelligently applied. 

When we think about communication, we have a propensity to associate this term with written and oral messages. Effective communication goes beyond speaking and writing intelligibly it includes ... 

One hundred years after the discovery of radioactivity and fifty years after the dawn of the nuclear age, society continues to debate the benefits and costs of nuclear technology. Understanding nuclear transformations and the properties of radioactivity is necessary for intelligent discussions of the nuclear dilemma. In this chapter, we explore the nucleus and the nuclear processes that it undergoes. We describe the factors that make nuclei stable or unstable, the various types of nuclear reactions that can occur, and the effects and applications of radioactivity. 

The establishment of a permanent section on agricultural chemicals in the American Chemical Society can contribute much in the public interest. The more discussion and intelligent consideration given to problems arising from the usage of pest-control chemicals, the better able industry will be to provide agriculture with effective pest-control chemicals which increase the efficiency of production and make possible the continuance of an abundant supply of wholesome food.
