We also found this template in the work of Nakanishi et al. (2007), which reports an experimental case study constructing an SPL with the PLUS method (Gomaa 2004).
These accounts are included in a separate set of seven extensive case studies constructed to illustrate innovative ways to measure the time that can elapse between research being conducted and its translation into improved health [ 12].
For the purposes of our study, a biobank was defined as 'an organization that acquires and stores human specimens and associated data for future research use.' Our work included conducting six qualitative case studies, constructing a list of biobanks in the U.S. [ 39], and piloting and administering a 30-minute online survey.
According to Stake (2005), the case study is constructed by qualitative data, such as observations, interviews, and documents.
The problem instances solved in this case study are constructed from publicly released polls on political tendencies in Spain.
This study compared the indoor air quality of eight newly built case study homes constructed to similar levels of air-tightness and insulation; with two different ventilation strategies (four homes with Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) systems/Code level 4 and four homes naturally ventilated/Code level 3).
For each policy case study, we constructed a timeline of key events in the policy process, including important meetings and the publication of policy documents and research findings.
As another case study, we constructed a phylogenetic tree with rice SNP data that has 162,479 SNP loci determined by resequencing microarrays with 20 samples [ 10].
Thus, as an additional case study, we constructed a phylogenetic tree with SNP data determined by Arabidopsis genome project (http://mus.well.ox.ac.uk/19genomes/).ac.uk/19genomes/
As a case study, we constructed a 3D model of epidermal development incorporating cell shape, movement and adhesion using the subcellular element method, cell growth and division, and an intracellular gene network within each cell coupled to cell-cell and cell-environment interactions.
