); and in the case of Marcus, who largely uses Pythagorean speculations about numbers, the Tetrad holds the highest place in the system.

Yajnavalkya ( c. 9th cenutry BCE ), in the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, uses the word to indicate that in which everything exists, which is of the highest value, which permeates everything, which is the essence of all, bliss and beyond description.

The United Kingdom currently uses five levels of classification — from lowest to highest, they are: PROTECT, RESTRICTED, CONFIDENTIAL, SECRET and TOP SECRET ( formerly MOST SECRET ).

But there are many substances in the Pharmacopoeia which are not only employed in medicine, but have other uses, such as sulphur, gum benzoin, tragacanth, gum arabic, ammonium carbonate, beeswax, oil of turpentine, linseed oil, and for these a commercial standard of purity as distinct from a medicinal one is needed, since the preparations used in medicine should be of the highest possible degree of purity obtainable, and this standard would be too high and too expensive for ordinary purposes.

OpenMSX uses a distinctive emulation model to achieve the highest level of accuracy possible.

For these discoveries, Borelli is labeled as the father of modern biomechanics and the American Society of Biomechanics uses the Borelli Award as its highest honour for research in the area.

Diet Rite is the non-aspartame diet soda brand with the highest sales today ; it uses a combination of sucralose and acesulfame potassium.

This early use continued to be reflected in its other uses — such as in alcaldes del crimen, the judges in the audiencias ; Alcaldes de la Casa y Corte de Su Majestad, who formed the highest tribunal in Castile and also managed the royal court ; alcaldes mayores ( a synonym for corregidor ); and alcaldes de barrio, who were roughly the equivalent of the British parish constables.

The second tuning ( ci kow or high ) uses the same string intervals but the fundamental is placed a minor second above the higher melody string, meaning that the open main strings now play the role of 3 and 6, with the supplementary strings acting as 3 ´ and 4 #, the highest supplementary string usually being ignored.

In the Philippines, the administration now uses social media to converse more with its citizens for it makes people feel more in touch with the highest official in the land.

This was originally a Masonic rite, a reformed variant of the Rite of Strict Observance which, in its highest degrees, uses Masonic-type rituals to demonstrate the philosophy which underlies both Martinism and the practices of the Elus-Cohens.

The ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider ( LHC ) at CERN uses proton-proton collisions at the highest energy ever achieved in the laboratory to look for the Higgs Boson, the particle central to the current model of how subatomic particles attain mass.

Although the hardware is limited to four separate sound channels, software such as OctaMED uses software mixing to allow eight or more virtual channels, and it was possible for software to mix two hardware channels to achieve a single 14-bit resolution channel by playing with the volumes of the channels in such a way that one of the source channels contributes the most significant bits and the other the least.

Because the WD1770 is capable of single density mode and uses the same IBM360 derived floppy disc format as the Intel 8271 found in the BBC Micro, it was also possible to run a DFS filing system with an alternate ROM, such as the P. R. E. S AP4 interface.

Where he does not specify, it is still possible to identify books that he must have had access to by quotations that he uses.

The initial paper describing the concept listed possible uses as a memory, a delay line, and an imaging device.

Ralph Hartley's 1928 paper, Transmission of Information, uses the word information as a measurable quantity, reflecting the receiver's ability to distinguish one sequence of symbols from any other, thus quantifying information as, where S was the number of possible symbols, and n the number of symbols in a transmission.

Scientists expect to find a vast range of organic compounds in some of the planets, moons and comets of the outer Solar System, and the range of possible uses is even wider.

Human language is unique among the lifeforms of Earth because its complex structure affords a much wider range of possible expressions and uses than any known system of animal communication, all of which are generally closed systems, with limited functions and mostly genetically rather than socially transmitted.

Land mines were designed for two main uses: to create defensive tactical barriers, channeling attacking forces into predetermined fire zones or slowing an invasion force's progress to allow reinforcements to arrive ; and to act as passive area-denial weapons ( to deny the enemy use of valuable terrain, resources or facilities when active defense of the area is not desirable or possible ).

Possible opportunity costs of a city's decision to build a hospital on its vacant land are the loss of the land for a sporting center, or the inability to use the land for a parking lot, or the money that could have been made from selling the land, or the loss of any of the various other possible uses — but not all of these in aggregate.

Menger did not embrace this hedonic conception, explained diminishing marginal utility in terms of subjective prioritization of possible uses, and emphasized disequilibrium and the discrete ; further Menger had an objection to the use of mathematics in economics, while the other two modeled their theories after 19th century mechanics.

Statistical natural-language processing uses stochastic, probabilistic and statistical methods to resolve some of the difficulties discussed above, especially those which arise because longer sentences are highly ambiguous when processed with realistic grammars, yielding thousands or millions of possible analyses.

Both uses are possible because certain substances called nuclear fuels undergo fission when struck by fission neutrons, and in turn emit neutrons when they break apart.

This production phaseout is possible because of efforts to ensure that there will be substitute chemicals and technologies for all CFC uses.

The littleutils are another open-source package, containing a wrapper script called opt-png that uses pngcrush and a variant of pngrewrite to reduce bit-depth when possible.

As ROTT uses the same basic game engine, Joe theorized that it should be possible to do this.

The plant's common name and Latin name originate from the belief in the Doctrine of Signatures which suggested that a plant's appearance reflected its possible uses.

The ALARA ( As Low As Reasonably Achievable ) principle has been advocated for an ultrasound examination — that is, keeping the scanning time and power settings as low as possible but consistent with diagnostic imaging — and that by that principle non-medical uses, which by definition are not necessary, are actively discouraged.

It is possible for a single host computer to have several hostnames ; but generally the operating system of the host prefers to have one hostname that the host uses for itself.

It is also possible to use XFree86 in a framebuffer device, which in turn uses a kernel graphics card driver.

Panels were trimmed of the outer rings, and often each panel only uses a small part of the radius of the trunk, so dating studies usually result in a " terminus post quem " ( earliest possible ) date, and a tentative date for the actual arrival of a seasoned raw panel using assumptions as to these factors.

Similarly, even when a sensible description of a particular " average case " ( which will probably only be applicable for some uses of the algorithm ) is possible, they tend to result in more difficult to analyse equations.

Although algebraic topology primarily uses algebra to study topological problems, using topology to solve algebraic problems is sometimes also possible.

This is possible because DSL uses higher frequency bands for data separated by filtering.

Use of this pattern makes it possible to interchange concrete implementations without changing the code that uses them, even at runtime.
