Key Definitions

Every branch of science, every profession, and every engineering process has its own language for communication. Hydraulic fracturing and shale-oil mining are no different. To work even at the edge of oil-shale fracking, you must acquire a fundamental vocabulary for the processes involved.

Definitions. Each business group will have a set of worxing words and definitions to describe computer systems and their operations and functions within the group. These should be listed and clearly defined in the SOP. The key definition needed is for a computer system requiring validation a "validatable system". The practical determination of validatable systems in day-to-day operations is the responsibility of the operating committee. 

For decades, risk assessors have essentially considered the effects on humans from exposure to individual substances. Standardized approaches have been developed along with research to improve this methodology and its reliability. The increased complexity of risk assessments and the numerous organizations performing them have led to the use of varied risk assessment concepts. Two main concepts—risk and hazard—were used earlier in different ways, creating confusion to the regulators and the public. To facilitate consistency, the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) recommended key definitions in... 

A handful of tables that contain database parameters. These include substructure search key definitions, the periodic table used with the database, and a list of salt moieties that can be considered during searches. 

You can define all eight function keys with whatever commands you find most useful. But there are a few items to note. First, each key is limited to a maximum of 16 characters. If you exceed the limit, the extra letters will be ignored. Second, if you want a BASIC command to be executed, the last character has to be a left arrow. RUN/STOP-RESTORE resets the computer and eliminates the function key definitions. Simply use SYS 52115 to return to Function Key. Finally, this utility is disabled whenever you run a program. It works only in immediate mode. This allows you to use the function keys from within your program and still have your favorite commands available with one keystroke while editing the program. 

It would be tedious to have to define all eight function keys every time you want to use this utility. You can create your own mini-toolkit with an f9 option, which allows you to save your function key definitions to tape or disk. You can then load your selected functions into memory at the beginning of a programming session. 

The key definitions What makes an object different from its mirror image. 

In this chapter we will first get a basic understanding of what is going on in a column. We will try to develop the hydrodynamic theory in a rather descriptive form, with a minimal amount of math. We start off with some key definitions, followed by an examination of the parameters that influence column performance. This forms the basis for our discussion in Chapter 3 of... 

Well-known rules, important j insights, and key definitions are often set apart and printed in blue type. These rules, insights, and definitions are central to understanding the material in their respective chapters. 

We begin the discussion with some key definitions and concepts in solving MCSP. We will assume that all the criteria in Table A.l are to be maximized. 

Development of expert consensus around common nomenclature, standards, and key definitions and the subsequent publication of White Papers in the Ammcan Heart Journal and Expert Perspectives in Therapeutic Innovation Regulatory Science. These publications describe what is known and unknown and propose paths forward to address such knowledge gaps. 

Other examples of key definitions that have been changed or are new include dangerous failure, safe failure, element and element safety function. 

The terminology used throughout this chapter will follow that of the CIE (8), with several minor modifications. The key definitions are noted below ... 

The following are key definitions of terms used thronghont the book ... 

For reaction schemes like the one shown in Equation (20T), there are three key definitions used to quantify production of desired product.
