For example, the EUnetHTA programme "attempt[s] to define and standardise elements of an HTA" by dividing relevant information on the technology under assessment "into standardised pieces, each of which describing one or more aspects of the technology that is likely to be useful when considering the adoption or rejection of the technology".
To this end, the investigative team has developed a web-based, computerised, interactive tool to standardise essential elements of care delivery such as mechanical ventilation, aspiration precautions, infection control, fluid management and transfusion in patients at risk.
At a time of shortages in building materials they used standardised and prefabricated elements to produce elegant, humane, light-filled places of education.
Thus, a record was judged to have been incorrectly standardised if any element of the input string was not allocated to an output field, or if any element was allocated to the wrong output field.
By standardising these genetic elements in an online registry, anyone can piece them together in any order to create biological circuits with entirely designed purpose.
I learned that IUPAC standardised the symbols for the elements such that the second letter of the symbol is preferentially a consonant and, in multi-syllable element names, should consist of the first letter of the second syllable.
For all tests, records were judged to be accurately standardised when all of the elements present in the input address string, with the exception of punctuation, were allocated to the correct output field, and the values in each output field were correctly transformed to their canonical form where required.
In the records which were standardised incorrectly, not every data element was assigned to the wrong output field.
Thirdly, to ensure a consistent approach and allow replication, we chose to evaluate a standardised treatment programme based on common elements identified from our survey and from the literature.
Beforehand, PCA data were standardised by subtracting the mean for each element and then dividing this by the standard deviation.
