Computer
Definition:
(n.) One who computes.
Example Sentences:

(9) We present a mathematical model that is suitable to reconcile this apparent contradiction in the interpretation of the epidemiological data: the observed parallel time series for the spread of AIDS in groups with different risk of infection can be realized by computer simulation, if one assumes that the outbreak of full-blown AIDS only occurs if HIV and a certain infectious coagent (cofactor) CO are present.

(13) Angus (A), Charolais (C), Hereford (H), Limousin (L), and Simmental (S) breeds were included in deterministic computer models simulating integrated cow-calf-feedlot production systems.
(14) The method is implemented with a digital non-causal (zero-phase shift) filter, based on the convolution with a finite impulse response, to make the computation time compatible with the use of low-cost microcomputers.
(15) Odds ratios were computed by multiple logistic regression analysis and revealed no additional relationships; however, there were suggested dose-response gradients for height, weight at age 20, and body surface area in the Japanese women and for breast size in the Caucasian women.
(16) DATA Modern football data analysis has its origins in a video-based system that used computer vision algorithms to automatically track players.
(17) The computer tomographic appearances of lesions of parenchymatous organs following blunt abdominal trauma are described in 13 patients (five liver, four renal, two splenic and two pancreatic injuries).
(18) 3 patients had complete disappearance of the symptoms but did not have a computed tomography scanning control, 3 patients had clinical and CT recovery.
(19) Second, is it possible - by combining the two technologies of endoscopy and computers - to provide an individual patient with a short-term prognostic prediction sufficiently accurate to affect patient management.
(20) Computed tomography does not allow differentiation between these lesions and surrounding normal tissues.
Computor
Definition:
Example Sentences:
(1) The model is based on statistical methods for programmed computor processing.

(9) The interest of computorized tomography is emphasized (discovery or confirmation of a suspected tumor, definition of its extension in depth), but this recent technic is incapable of constant confirmation of the histological diagnosis; it cannot replace other confirmed methods of diagnosis.
(10) The prodcedures involved in preparation of the initial information are described and the fundamental parts of the program elaborated in "fortran" language and tentatively tested with an "EC-1020" type computor are discussed.
(11) A computor recorded 156 possible variants of combinations of the forms and clinical manifestations.
(12) Used was a programme already worked out and practised at the Pilot Computor Center of the Medical Academy, Sofia.
