Again, one could reserve the label "time machine" for devices that manipulate concentrations of mass-energy in some specified ways.
A computer may be able to follow in detail the movement of thousands of atoms interacting in a specified way, but a wholly successful study along these lines does no more than display on a large scale and at an assimilable speed what nature achieves on its own.
A mathematical structure is called a lattice if it can be ordered in a specified way (see order).
In a similar vein, the construction of conics was considered more complicated: One of the accepted techniques for constructing a conic required cutting a cone in a specified way, which again, went beyond the consideration of intersecting curves that were constructible by straightedge and compass.
That much is the common and more or less defining ground of moral realism (although some accounts of moral realism see it as involving additional commitments, say to the independence of the moral facts from human thought and practice, or to those facts being objective in some specified way).
Since the parameter estimation method gives the parameter estimates such that the estimated outputs follow the outputs in a specified way, all the uncertainties and disturbances affecting the outputs can be reflected into the estimated parameters, thus making the adaptive linearizing controller robust.
A more recent useful definition of an epidemiological cause is offered by Rothman and colleagues as 'an event, condition, or characteristic that preceded the disease onset and that, had the event, condition, or characteristic been different in a specified way, the disease either would not have occurred at all or would have occurred some time later' [ 6].
Each character can move a specified way (just like Chess) and you land on the same square as the opponent's piece to attack it.
Five attributes are included in the experiment: (i) type of landscape, (ii) type of ownership, (iii) the degree of local participation in the planning process, (iv) the choice to transfer revenue to the society in a pre-specified way, and (v) a monetary cost in terms of an additional electricity certificate fee.
The basic principle is to combine stage standardized test statistics such as p-values or z-scores in a pre-specified way.
A mediator is defined to be a reliable entity, which can ask the agents for the right to play on their behalf, and is guaranteed to behave in a pre-specified way based on messages received from the agents.
