This paper presents the results of a survey to assess the extent of use of safety architectural patterns in Logica to solve commonly reoccurring problems in the safety domain. A number of Logica safety related projects, active during August 2011, were considered to establish which specific patterns had been used so a profile of pattern use could be established along with a view of their perceiv...

Molecular epidemiologic studies provide evidence of transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis within clusters of patients whose isolates share identical IS6110-DNA fingerprint patterns. However, M. tuberculosis transmission among patients whose isolates have similar but not identical DNA fingerprint patterns (i.e., differing by a single band) has not been well documented. We used DNA fingerpri...

or the development of the original (1992) Food Guide yramid (Pyramid), extensive technical and consumer reearch was conducted. The food intake patterns that evenually were illustrated by the Pyramid graphic were develped in the mid 1980s through a research process that has een well documented. The first graphic presentation of hese new food intake patterns was as a Food Wheel that as part of a ...

Security Design Patterns present the tried and tested design decisions made by security engineers within a well documented format. Patterns allow for complex security concepts, and mechanisms, to be expressed such that non-domain experts can make use of them. Our research is concerned with the development of pattern languages for advanced crypto-systems. From our experience developing pattern l...

The exigencies and the particular characteristics of website development are a great challenge for designers and developers. There are many differences between typical software application development and website development. In website development, the presentation component; visual and graphical, plays an important role, which is not that important for not web applications. This component can...
