In Redefining the Political Novel, Sharon M. Harris responds to Cathy Davidson's work by arguing that The Coquette can be understood as a political novel ; she writes, “ By recognizing and satirizing, first, the political systems that create women ’ s social realisms and, second, the language used to convey those systems to the broader culture, Foster exposes the sexist bases of the new nation ’ s political ideologies .”

Atari decided to re-enter the games market with a design that closely matched their original 1978 specifications.

Firewalls being used in different application may require different design and performance specifications.

Using general specifications provided to her, Will created the design sketch for the present medal of the Purple Heart.

Ideally, safety-engineers take an early design of a system, analyze it to find what faults can occur, and then propose safety requirements in design specifications up front and changes to existing systems to make the system safer.

It can be determined that the vertical stabilizer's structural performance was consistent with design specifications and exceeded certification requirements.

For example, formal program specifications are used to state the exact behavior of programs, so that design bugs can be eliminated.

This stage includes the development of detailed designs that brings initial design work into a completed with form of specifications.

During this process, the objectives and design specifications of the aircraft are established.

* Avoid situations that are harmful to people, property, or itself unless those are part of its design specifications ( Rule # 4 )

Collaborative design techniques, such as rapid visualization and parametric modeling of restaurant kitchens are now being used to establish equipment specifications that are consistent with restaurant operating and merchandising requirements.

The Turing machines in this class must meet certain design specifications and are required to eventually halt after being started with a blank tape.

The n-state busy beaver game ( or BB-n game ), introduced in Tibor Radó's 1962 paper, involves a class of Turing machines, each member of which is required to meet the following design specifications:

The project's specifications were developed by the universities, which are continuing to play a major role in the design of future research efforts.

The landscape architect can conceive the overall concept and prepare the master plan, from which detailed design drawings and technical specifications are prepared.

Critical cartridge specifications include neck size caliber, bullet weight, expected velocity, maximum pressure, headspace, overall length, primer type, case body diameter and taper, shoulder design, rim type, etc.

Capability development, which is often referred to as the military " strength ", is arguably one of the most complex activities known to humanity because it requires determining: Strategic, operational and tactical capability requirements to counter the identified threats ; Strategic, operational and tactical doctrines by which the acquired capabilities will be used ; identifying concepts, methods and systems involved in executing the doctrines ; creating design specifications for the manufacturers who would produce these in adequate quantity and quality for their use in combat ; purchase the concepts, methods and systems ; create a forces structure that would use the concepts, methods and systems most effectively and efficiently ; integrate these concepts, methods and systems into the force structure by providing military education, training, and practice that preferably resembles combat environment of intended use ; create military logistics systems to allow continued and uninterrupted performance of military organisations under combat conditions, including provision of health services to the personnel and maintenance for the equipment ; the services to assist recovery of wounded personnel and repair of damaged equipment ; and finally post-conflict demobilisation and disposal of war stocks surplus to peacetime requirements.

When he failed to produce an engine to the power and weight specifications, Manly finished the design.

The complete commented source code and design specifications of Atari BASIC were published as a book in 1983.

In the latter case, due to localized heating of the " steam bubble " due to decay heat, the pressure required to collapse the " steam bubble " may exceed reactor design specifications until the reactor has had time to cool down.

* In an uncontrolled power excursion accident, a sudden power spike in the reactor exceeds reactor design specifications due to a sudden increase in reactor reactivity.

In Hand-Painted Canvas, the design is painted on the canvas by the designer, or painted to their specifications by an employee or contractor.

** Testing to confirm that the system, subsystem or component meets documented requirements or specifications levied on the design.
