Computing


Definition:

  • (p. pr. & vb. n.) of Compute

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.
  • (10) Excellent correlations were observed between computer and manual methods for both systems.
  • (11) The programs are written in Fortran and are implemented on a Rank Xerox Sigma 6 computer.

  • (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.

Lintel


Definition:

  • (n.) A horizontal member spanning an opening, and carrying the superincumbent weight by means of its strength in resisting crosswise fracture.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The gigantic lintels that bridge the uprights were also elaborately worked to even their size and height.
  • (2) A rocket-propelled grenade slammed into the lintel above the front doors, jarring them open, and gunmen rushed inside.
  • (3) An outer circle of uprights and lintels gives the monument its world-famous profile.
  • (4) Biphasic responses, with both thresholds and upper limits, or lintels, are also surprisingly common.
  • (5) The stones were repeatedly moved and rearranged, and the enormous sarsen trilithons added, before the final outer circle of sarsen uprights and lintels was created around 1,900 BC, creating the world famous profile of the monument.
  • (6) "If you'd said to me only a week ago ..." He gestures, despairingly, at the filthy water lapping at the lintels in the front room.
  • (7) But for all my easy-won goody goody-ness, I pretty much need to know that every last megacorp doing business in our land has paid every last penny they owe before we start boasting about having nailed Cool Cutz, or Headmasterz, or whatever hair-based pun adorns this chap's salon lintel.
  • (8) A quote from an anonymous author painted above the door lintel by owner Mike Beaumon could be the micropub motto: “Beer is the drink of men who think, and feel no fear or fetter, who do not drink to senseless sink, but drink to feel better.” • thefourcandles.co.uk , open Mon-Thurs and Sun 5pm-10.30pm, Fri and 5pm-11.30pm, lunchtimes Sat and Sun noon-3.30pm The Thirty-Nine Steps Alehouse, Broadstairs A few streets back from the Broadstairs seafront, this pub in a former pet shop was opened by local couple Kevin and Nicola Harding.
