The systems proved to be adequately reliable in a research environment, with very limited downtime (less than 10%) and limited error rate (in almost all cases, the sample or extract could be recovered and useful results could be obtained after diagnosis of the reason for failure, modification of the method to accommodate the failure, and repeat analysis).
Led by Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, perhaps the nation's leading business executive as well, Italy has moved to remove criminal penalties for accounting fraud and, in the last week, has rewritten its bankruptcy laws to accommodate the failure of Parmalat, the giant dairy and food-processing company controlled by the Tanzi family.
In selecting gene sets to assay, higher values for redundancy may be chosen to better accommodate probe failures, but such failures will result in decreased accuracy.
"Now every other program is full, and it's not like they're going to all adjust their plans to accommodate the failure of this one".
In some cases, the animal numbers are larger due to variability in the collected data or to accommodate technical failure in some aspect of an experiment.
The reconfigurable control systems are able to rearrange dynamically the system elements in order to accommodate the failure events and the new requirements.
The main contribution of this article consists in showing that it is possible to detect and accommodate a failure of the VelCS within the steering control system, i.e. without requiring communication among subsystems.
Here he argued that, except for transaction costs, not only could private deals between voluntary agents always accommodate market failures but that "government failures" (that is, those caused by government intervention) were as deleterious as market failures, if not more so.
In recent years, many control schemes have been proposed to accommodate actuator failures; see, for example, [26 32].
In order to accommodate actuator failures which are uncertain in time, pattern and value, we propose two adaptive backstepping control schemes for parametric strict feedback systems.
