We discuss approaches based on function, functional elements, structure, sequence, protein interactions, evolution, regulation, and biophysical properties (Table 1).
Hardman changed the structure of the Air Force from one based on geographical area to one based on function, hence McCauley's Eastern Area Command evolved into Home Command (now Air Command) in 1953.
Commencing in October 1953, the RAAF was reorganised from a geographically based command-and-control system into one based on function.
Between October 1953 and February 1954, the RAAF underwent major organisational change, as it transitioned from a geographically based command-and-control system to one based on function, resulting in the establishment of Home (operational), Training, and Maintenance Commands.
The Air Force also underwent a major organisational change, as it transitioned from a geographically based command-and-control system to one based on function, resulting in the establishment of Home (operational), Training, and Maintenance Commands.
American regulation has traditionally been based on function, so that one institution might have parts of its operations regulated by the S.E.C. and others regulated by bank, insurance or commodities regulators.
Others, like Bill Owens, would create new services based on function -- an intelligence service, a logistics service, an attack service and so on.
Data in the CalNet Directory is divided into "Organizational Units" (OUs) based on function and/or purpose.
This paper presents a new weighted bivariate blending rational spline interpolation based on function values.
In total, eleven laptop computers were disassembled and characterized based on function, components, and materials.
The engineer's analysis of a building problem, based on function and economics, determines the building's structural design.
