The devices, called Active Book because they slip around spinal nerves like the pages of a book, deliver electrical impulses directly to the spine from onboard electronics, unlike existing externally-operated devices that apply the impulses to the skin.
The calls to integrate practice-led assessments with existing externally-led assessments imply that we need to understand more about how these methods affect the role of those who visit the practices either as assessors, educators or facilitators.
Conceptual realism does not necessarily have implications for the ontological status of this reality as externally existing.
The imaginary nature is only an "unreal conceptual construction" because of two reasons: (i) it is the dependent nature representations merely dually reified by the mind as an ultimately real subject, or self, or eg, and (ii) the imaginary nature is dualistic reification of beings and objects as existing really and externally, there is no such reality.

Even if the job had to be advertised externally, perhaps existing employees could be offered interviews or a separate application, on the understanding that we already perform the role.
Strengthening existing steel beams with externally bonded carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) plate has attracted many interests in the research community.
The time-depending stress transfer in existing structures strengthened with externally bonded fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) systems, due to viscous effects of reinforcement, is analysed in this paper.
This paper deals with strengthening, upgrading, and rehabilitation of existing reinforced concrete structures using externally bonded composite materials.
A set of nested models in a downscaling philosophy was implemented, externally forced by existing regional operational products.
