And in the last three decades there have indeed been several attempts — by federal judges — to devise a rule system that is intended to essentially protect judges from themselves.
The key is to devise a rule for placing individual conformers in a standard position relative to the coordinate system, rather than superimposing them on a pairwise basis.
After recent meetings in Washington, officials from Europe blamed the Treasury for this, complaining that America would rather respond to crises "flexibly" (ie, in its own narrow interests, case by case) than devise a rules-based approach.
I devised a rule of thumb: pants that were too tight to fit over socks were shelved with the tights; those that had a little clearance at the ankle I considered trousers.
Based on his experience with the Science Barge, he has devised a rule of thumb: generating enough electricity using solar panels requires an area about 20 times larger than the area being illuminated.
We devised a rule-based procedure to associate CNE-enhancers with their respective target gene (see methods).
For stereological counting, we created a 12×8 grid image which was overlaid with microscope images, and devised a rule to randomly select different grid areas to look for synaptic terminals until the target number was reached.
To develop a rule-based scheme for characterization of "frailty", for instance, Fried et al. [ 16] first developed a conceptual framework, devised a rule-based system within this framework, and then validated the predictive validity of the rule-based system using survival data from the Cardiovascular Health Study.
We devised a rule dictating the increase in bond length with time from initial contact formation, based on a quantitative interpretation of these results: for (0.5 < t < 12) BL = 2 + (σ *t) else BL = 15; where BL = bond length and t = time in hours and σ = 3.5 μm/hour.
For instance, one of the earliest works, by Castro-Rodríguez et al.[ 14], devised a rule-based asthma predictive index to predict subsequent asthma amongst young children with a history of wheezing, attaining sensitivity ~0.4 at ~0.8 specificity on various time points.
Although such properties are very process-dependent, we are trying to devise a general rule and method of combining both theoretical simulations and experimentally observed data, for obtaining such properties, which in turn, enabling better design and optimization of the Infrared device, especially when scaling down is an issue.
