The scale and speed with which biological literature is published introduces multiple challenges for the creation, verification, maintenance and further development of formal, comprehensive and up-to-date models of the physical entities and reactions involved in biological systems (Ananiadou et al., 2006; Kitano, 2002).
Thus, this paper proposes a model driven framework based both on the use of SysML to model a system-of-interest subject to ageing and maintenance and on the use of formal language AltaRica Data Flow to support model simulation.
By contrast, no evidence of formal and regular maintenance and updating was found within the other organizations.
Formal sector health workers were less enthusiastic about the trial, raising concerns about professional hierarchies and the maintenance of a boundary around the formal health service to ensure the exclusion of those they considered untrained, unprofessional and untrustworthy personnel.
The apparent importance of incumbent structures in inhibiting the emergence of RRI practices in action and their subsistence raises the question to what degree the creation and maintenance of adaptive space can benefit from formal and informal ways of organizing RRI practices in action.
Research (e.g., Binder, 1996; Wolf, 2001) suggests that fluency is instrumental for critical learning, as it serves as a catalyst for retention and maintenance of skills and knowledge long after formal learning has ended, endurance to undistractedly maintain what has been learned for extended periods of time, and application of knowledge and skills in novel contexts.
In the absence of formal error tracking systems, especially for the developing world, the successful maintenance of a voluntary error reporting culture gains increased importance to ensure patient safety [ 2].
Of formal guarantees, there was no sign.
They partake of formal beauty.
