Alternatively, if using more than one or two techniques for every experiment is infeasible, some of the benefits of consilience may still be obtained if it is well-established that these techniques usually give the same result.

Alternatively, when a self-balancing binary search tree is used, insertion and removal also take O ( log n ) time, although building trees from existing sequences of elements takes O ( n log n ) time ; this is typical where one might already have access to these data structures, such as with third-party or standard libraries.

Alternatively, only a slightly inset floor topped by a fibrous mesh and concrete building composite floor cladding is used for smaller high quality tile floors — these ' concrete ' subfloors have a good thermal match with ceramic tiles and so are popular with builders constructing kitchen, laundry and especially both common and high end bathrooms and any other room where large expanses of well supported ceramic tile will be used as a finished floor.

Alternatively her canonisation might have been intended to counter any such pejorative connotations, especially if her story was fictitious, as many authorities think possible, including the Roman Catholic Church since 1969 ( for details of these doubts, see under Saint Barbara ).

Alternatively there is an emerging class of software which can localize an application without altering the underlying code in any way Modern development systems and operating systems include sophisticated libraries for international support of these types.

Alternatively these paintings may be of a Masonic motivation as in the 18th century it was believed that the Crusader Military orders, such as The Poor Knights of the Temple of Solomon ( Knights Templar ) and the Knights of St John ( Hospitallers ), were in some way inexplicably linked.

Substitution track switch for rail at Chester Zoo Alternatively these substitution track segments can be wrapped around a rotating cylinder, creating a triangular truss or a two sided plate.

In other words X is if it is defined by a formula allowed to ask questions about membership in Y. Alternatively one can view the sets as those sets that can be built starting with sets recursive in Y and alternatively projecting and taking the complements of these sets up to n times.

Alternatively, the Anatinae are considered to include most " ducks " and the dabbling ducks form a tribe Anatini within these.

Alternatively, Alexander Grothendieck replaced these with a slightly smaller set of axioms:

Alternatively, that the corresponding map T < sup > 2 </ sup >→ S < sup > 2 </ sup > from the torus T < sup > 2 </ sup > to the sphere S < sup > 2 </ sup > ( given by the point with given azimuth and elevation ) is not a covering map at these points.

Alternatively, these representations can be defined on the K-vector space W of all functions.

Alternatively, she could number the vertices of H, then for each edge of H write a small piece of paper containing the two vertices of the edge and then put these pieces of paper upside down on a table.

" Alternatively, conclusions can consist of merely 1 or 2 sentences, such as " For these reasons you must pass / fail this bill / resolution / legislation.

Alternatively, failure to complete a stunt could also send someone to one of these devices.

Alternatively, the Planck current is that constant current which, if maintained in two straight parallel conductors of infinite length and negligible circular cross-section, and placed a Planck length apart in vacuum, would produce between these conductors a force equal to a Planck force per Planck length.

Alternatively, it is the unique anywhere-continuous function with these properties ( Rudin, 1976, chapter 8, exercise 6 ).

Alternatively, it can be considered a form of sexual roleplay that allows the participants to experience unusual sexual sensations and carry out sexual experiments they cannot try in reality.

Alternatively, it may be dissolved in a solvent such as DMSO to enhance percutaneous absorption, though experiments before this proved unsatisfactory for military purposes.

Alternatively, each computer may have its own user with individual needs, and the purpose of the distributed system is to coordinate the use of shared resources or provide communication services to the users.

Alternatively ambient noise levels may be measured to provide a reference point for analyzing an intrusive sound to a given environment.

Alternatively, metamaterials provide the theoretical possibility of making electromagnetic radiation appear to pass freely through the ' cloaked ' object.

Alternatively in some cases the vendor refuses to provide services in future which leaves purchased material only usable on the present-and increasingly obsolete-hardware ( so long as it lasts ) but not on any hardware that may be purchased in future.

Alternatively, rehabilitation robotics can be used to provide high volumes of passive or assisted movement, depending on the individual's requirements ; this form of therapy can be useful if therapists are at a premium, and has been found effective at reducing spasticity in patients suffering from stroke.

Alternatively, they may provide the warranty service only from the manufacturer's subsidiary in the intended country of import, not the diverted third country where the grey goods are ultimately sold by the distributor or retailer.

Alternatively, the Bridgwater and Minehead Junction Railway would link with the B & ER at Bridgwater and run through Williton to Minehead with a branch to Watchet and a connecting Minehead and Central Devon Junction Railway would provide a line to Exeter.

Alternatively, DDR2 memory operating at twice the external data bus clock rate as DDR may provide twice the bandwidth with the same latency.

Alternatively critics have argued that codes are too rigid and that they fail to provide enough flexibility for the law to be effective.

Alternatively, some rifles such as the Dragunov or Walther WA2000 provide structures at the fore-end to provide tension on the barrel in order to counteract barrel drop and other alterations in barrel shape.

Alternatively, the rail can be supported along its length by an elastic material ; when combined with a smaller rail section, this can provide a significant noise reduction over traditional ballasted track.

Alternatively, smaller doses can provide analgesia, e. g. in the postoperative period.

Alternatively, if an adverse effect is expected, the agency is required to work with the local State Historic Preservation Office to ensure that all interested parties are given an opportunity to review the proposed work and provide comments.

Alternatively, one officer can be equipped with less lethal munitions, while others, equipped with buckshot, can provide a backup in case the less lethal rounds fail to stop the target.

Alternatively, such plants could provide captive power for nearby industrial uses such as desalination plants, aluminium production via the Hall-Héroult process, or to generate hydrogen for ammonia production.

Alternatively, it may be written by someone other than the author of the book to provide enriching comment, such as discussing the work's historical or cultural context ( especially if the work is being reissued many years after its original publication ).

Alternatively, the engine can be run at very low rpm and high propeller pitch, combined with the drive and stabilizing force of the sails, to provide comfort, economy and capability.

Alternatively, one can fix some geometrical properties of a spacetime and look for a matter source that could provide these properties.

Alternatively, some instruction set architectures automatically provide comparable functionality as part of the action of the call instruction itself, and in such an environment the prologue need not do this.

Alternatively the wavelengths can be used collectively through statistical multiplexing to provide efficient wavelength utilization and lower delays experienced by the ONUs.

Alternatively, over-awareness of the anima or animus could provide a premature conclusion to the individuation process-" a kind of psychological short-circuit, to identify the animus at least provisionally with wholeness ".

Alternatively, sites like Replacementdocs provide a large repository of fan-made and official PDF manuals to download.

Alternatively, some handsets provide access to a list of ICE contacts directly from the " locked " screen.
