A general rule of engineering is that failures reveal more than successes.
And by the first rule of engineering, she said, "there is no such thing as a free lunch; there are always trade-offs".
The knowledge supported vectorization algorithm takes full use of the features and rules of construction engineering drawings to solve the difficulties of vectorization caused by noises and degradations.
"The government can leverage its purchasing power," he said, "and can be a leader for the entire industry in setting rules and standards of engineering behavior".
The most important rule of software engineering is also the least known: Complexity does not scale linearly with size.
As an exception to this rule of purely engineering consideration of a road upgrading project, the Project Development and Design Manual (PDDM) of the Federal Highway Administration [5] proposes an integrated model based on social, economic and environmental (SEE) assessment.
As an engineering rule-of-thumb, a 10-percent reduction in weight can lead to a 6- to 7-percent reduction in fuel consumption [7, 65, 66, 67]).
We give examples for each type, together with the proposed revisions (SNOMED CT concept labels are in italic, while DOLCE category names in bold): 1. Hierarchy violating the rules of sound ontology engineering (inconsistent classification to DOLCE).
On the basis of the classification, a complete set of engineering rules must be specified which then dictate the codes and standards that are used by the designers.
Determination of hardness and stiffness for materials is extremely important because of its rule in the design of engineering applications.
The ability to compare structure and function in this quantitative manner is an important stage in the ultimate development of engineering design rules for biological catalysts.
