Betamax system, and Microsoft software (though open source software is perhaps mounting a challenge) (Nye, 2006, pp50-51). [Pg.32]

Traditionally data, properties, information etc has been stored in files on computer disks. More recently, it has become common practice on Macintosh computers, when using Microsoft software or some UNIX applications, to use either extensions to the file name or the first few bytes in the file (or another file) to indicate some aspects of the data, for example that it is suitable for Microsoft Excel. While this approach is practical to indicate something about files containing columns of data, it is not appropriate to store information about the values in cells in spreadsheet or how it relates to data in other columns. This requires a relational database such as ORACLE, and for performance reasons the values in the cells may only be accessed via the ORACLE API (Application Programming Interface) or SQL (Standard Query Language), in other words, it is suggested that relational databases such as ORACLE should be viewed as sophisticated file systems which allow the values to be organised, efficiently stored, rapidly retrieved etc. [Pg.179]

Yout Product Identilicalion Number is shown below. Microsoft uses this information to register you as a certified user of this and other Microsoft software. [Pg.536]

The 16-bit and 32-bit software for eddy current testing using PC measurement cards manufactured by SOFRATEST, France, is presented in this article. Microsoft Visual C/C++ Development System and Tools have been used. [Pg.389]

We are confident that any user of this combined evaluation technique, as well as the development of future test standards for manual ultrasonic testing will benefit from this result, because it allows a greater flexibility in the applicable method without loosing reliability. Often an expensive production of a reference block can be avoided and therefore testing costs are reduced. Since all calculations are performed by a PC, the operator can fully concentrate on his most important duty scanning the workpiece and observing the A-scan. Additional time will be saved for the test documentation, since all testing results are stored in the instrument s memory (the PC s hard drive) with full link to the Software World (Microsoft Word, Excel, etc.). [Pg.818]

Electronic mail and electronic conferencing services are not counted as separate databases, but when such electronic services are included with a database they are counted as aspects of the associated database and the database is classified accordingly. Several commercial online services make software databases available online, eg, the Microsoft Programmers Library, MacTutor, and Atari RoundTable. Several producers offer CD-ROM databases containing software. Such software databases contain the coding and documentation for software packages and so are classified as software databases. These are different from directories of software that are classed as directory databases. [Pg.455]

Additionally, solutions to problems are presented in the text and the accompanying CD contains computer programs (Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and software) for solving modeling problems using numerical methods. The CD also contains colored snapshots on computational fluid mixing in a reactor. Additionally, the CD contains the appendices and conversion table software. [Pg.1118]

RISKMAN is an integrated Microsoft Windows , personal computer software system for [H. i forming quantitative risk analysis. Used for PSAs for aerospace, nuclear power, and chemical [iroccsses, it has five main modules Data Analysis, Systems Analysis, External Events Analysis, Event Tree Analysis, and Important Sequences. There are also modules for software system maintenance, backup, restoration, software updates, printer font, and page control. PEG has also integrated the fault tree programs CAFTA, SETS, NRCCUT, and IRRAS into RISKMAN. [Pg.143]

R D management tends to be dominated by a project management paradigm, and most organizations develop systems based upon standard project management software, for example, Microsoft Project . This is very useful for project control, but of much less help in decision support. John Gittins claimed in 1997 [10] that very few pharmaceutical companies practice use of decision analysis in planning their work. Decisions tend to be made only for a baseline plan, and typically... [Pg.252]

This method of data collection uses Portable Document Format (PDF) Forms. This approach is flexible and inexpensive. A number of commercial software packages such as Adobe Acrobat, LaText, and Microsoft Word and free software such as Python and R are used to create the PDF forms. Paper copies of the PDF forms may be used as an intermediate data collection. Electronic versions are completed at each site with Adobe Reader software. Completed forms are submitted on a CD or faxed as Extended Markup Language (XML)... [Pg.610]

Current computerized analyses of adverse events still typically consist of a vast number of discrete, often personal, ad hoc processes that mimic paper and pencil methods. Some commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) software tools (e.g., Adobe Acrobat , Microsoft Word , Excel ) do have the capability to search for specihc terms in electronic documents/case reports and do have navigational tools with hyperlinks and fullfull-text indexing that enable researchers to create their own hyperlinks. Some other COTS software tools (e.g., SAS , Excel , Access , IMP ) allow importation of electronic case report tabulations (ECRT) for more detailed analysis. [Pg.651]

The objectives in this chapter are two. The first one is to briefly review the essentials of linear regression and to present them in a form that is consistent with our notation and approach followed in subsequent chapters addressing nonlinear regression problems. The second objective is to show that a large number of linear regression problems can now be handled with readily available software such as Microsoft Excel and SigmaPlot . [Pg.23]

Problems that can be described by a multiple linear regression model (i.e., they have a single response variable, 1) can be readily solved by available software. We will demonstrate such problems can be solved by using Microsoft Excel and SigmaPlot . [Pg.35]

Most clinical data management systems used for clinical trials today store their data in relational database software such as Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server. A relational database is composed of a set of rectangular data matrices called tables that relate or associate with one another by certain key fields. The language most often used to work with relational databases is structured query language (SQL). The SAS/ACCESS SQL Pass-Through Facility and the SAS/ACCESS LIBNAME engine are the two methods that SAS provides for extracting data from relational databases. [Pg.42]

Because Microsoft Office is so widely used, it is sometimes necessary for you to import data directly from Microsoft Excel or Microsoft Access. Excel files make for a poor database, however. First, Excel files are almost guaranteed to come from a system that is not compliant with CFR 21 - Part 11. Second, it is often the case that the Excel files were created in such a way that the data are not WYSIWYG ( what you see is what you get ). In other words, each cell in Excel could be entered with a different Excel format, which you would not see until you either reformat an entire column in Excel or try to have some other software like SAS read the contents of the Excel file. For these reasons, it is best not to accept Microsoft Excel data as a data source for clinical trials if at all possible. [Pg.56]

There are other ways to convert a single piece of SAS output to PDF. You can use a free script found on the Internet, such as ascii2pdf, or purchase a PDF file converter from a third-party software vendor. If you have Acrobat Distiller with Acrobat Version 5, you can use the PDF distiller macros in Microsoft Office to print a single file from Microsoft Word to PDF. [Pg.195]

Some software applications that you may use for reporting clinical trial information have their own scripting languages. For Microsoft Office applications you can write powerful local utility functions with Visual Basic or VBScript. Other applications, such as Adobe Acrobat, may use JavaScript for utility functions. [Pg.299]

The parameters are easily determined by using computer software. In Microsoft Excel, the data are put into columns A and B and the graph is created as for a linear curve fit. This time, though, when adding the trendline, choose the polynomial icon and use 2 (which gives powers up to and including x ). The result is... [Pg.85]
