In zebrafish, the escape response is mediated by a neural circuit that requires exceptional speed, robustness and flexibility.
Exceptional time-step robustness is achieved in elasto-plastic problems: often fewer than one-tenth of the typical number of time increments can be used with a quantifiable effect in accuracy.
Moreover, the longevity of a tetraetherlipid monolayer sandwiched by an S-layer lattice on each side revealed in comparison with other approaches (e.g. tethered membranes, polymer cushion), an exceptional long-term robustness of approximately 1 week (Schuster, 2005; Schuster & Sleytr, 2005, 2006, 2009b).
As a result of the unique assembly of subunits with different dimensionalities, the CoS-NP/CoS-NS DSNBs have a high specific surface area, suitable mesopores, and good structural robustness, which contribute to exceptional performance as a battery-type electrode.
This innovative strategy, which follows a simple one-step immobilization procedure, shows exceptional results in terms of sensitivity and robustness, leading to a highly-reproducible and long-term stable surface which allows achieving extremely low limits of detection.
Ballista [11] is a tool for testing robustness that combines acceptable and exceptional values on calls to kernel functions of POSIX operating systems.
Frédéric Oudéa, the chief executive of Société Générale, said that during a first half "marked by a crisis on an exceptional scale, Société Générale's performance reflects the robustness of its portfolio of activities".
The robustness tests consist of combinations of exceptional and acceptable input values of parameters of Web services operations that can be generated by applying a set of predefined rules according to the data type of each parameter.
Polymer brushes provide an exceptional route to surface functionalization due to their chemical and mechanical robustness, lack of large-area defects, and high density of functional groups.
It simulates abnormal situations within the real service and allows the verification of the robustness of Web services compositions against various errors and/or exceptional cases.
