(7) Sensitivity analysis of the selected activities is performed in Step 4. In practice this typically involves characterizing the outcomes of the script's activities (and their likelihood) as the states of the various entities are modified.
Mr. Bates characterized the outcome as "a win-win situation".
In particular, we characterize the outcome functions that are implementable for an uninformed principal and an informed agent if, having observed the agent's contract choice, the principal can offer a new menu of contracts in its place.
To take a simple case: if there are three possible combinations of alleles at a given locus in a population, we can characterize the outcome of a reproductive cycle as 'chance' if each of the three possible combinations occurs at a frequency determined strictly by the laws of probability.
Unfortunately, as I have said before, some advocates and some members of the press will likely characterize the outcome as a "failure," because the 2 degree C target has not been achieved immediately.

Gov. Jerry Brown and the state's teachers unions had characterized the outcome sought by Vergara as simplistic, wrong-minded and even injurious to students.
In the present work we characterized the outcome of patients that received lung transplantation for the treatment of their silica-induced respiratory failure.
Initial gene silencing studies were carried out using E. histolytica β-tubulin (GenBank accession number EHI_049920 or EHI_167010) as a target gene since a highly specific antibody and quantitative PCR tools were already available in our laboratory to characterize the outcome of the phenotype (see Material and Methods).
