Its low price started to multiply users and opened a new market for computing and expert systems.

On 2 June 1793, Paris sections — encouraged by the enragés (" enraged ones ") Jacques Roux and Jacques Hébert – took over the Convention, calling for administrative and political purges, a low fixed price for bread, and a limitation of the electoral franchise to sans-culottes alone.

The hunters reported being able to club the unwary animals to death one after another, making the hunt profitable even though the price per seal skin was low.

Quickly but carefully lowering my duffel bag over the low side-rack, I stepped on the running board ; ;

Others who wrote of low characters and low life included Thomas Bangs Thorpe, creator of the Big Bear Of Arkansas and Tom Owen, the Bee-Hunter ; ;

Such characters, with their low existence and often low morality, produce humorous effects in his novels and tales, as they did in the writing of Longstreet and Hooper and Harris, but it need not be added that he gives them far subtler and more intricate functions than they had in the earlier writers ; ;

Or, he might remind Fromm that the 41 per cent figure is really astonishingly low: after all, the medieval guild system was dedicated to the proposition that 100 per cent of the workers ought to turn out only the average amount ; ;

The ship will seek a location which is sufficiently protected ; has suitable holding ground, enough depth at low tide and enough room for the boat to swing.

Perfect crystals never occur in practice ; imperfections, and even entire amorphous materials, simply get " frozen in " at low temperatures, so transitions to more stable states do not occur.

It stands alone in sending manned missions beyond low Earth orbit ; Apollo 8 was the first manned spacecraft to orbit another celestial body, while the final Apollo 17 mission marked the sixth Moon landing and the ninth manned mission beyond low Earth orbit.

Aspirin should be used in animals only under the direct supervision of a veterinarian ; in particular, cats lack the glucuronide conjugates that aid in the excretion of aspirin, making even low doses potentially toxic.

MtDNA Haplogroup D is found frequently throughout East Asia and Central Asia, and is also common in some populations of North Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Americas ; in addition, it has been found with low frequency in some populations of Europe and Southwest Asia.

Only the Jarawa and Sentinelese still maintain a steadfast independence and refuse most attempts at contact ; their numbers are uncertain but estimated to be in the low hundreds.

In contrast with other continents, it is marked by the comparatively small area of either very high or very low ground, lands under occupying an unusually small part of the surface ; while not only are the highest elevations inferior to those of Asia or South America, but the area of land over is also quite insignificant, being represented almost entirely by individual peaks and mountain ranges.

" Fifty stadia 6 mi from the coast was a mountain that was low on all sides ... broke it off all round about ... the central island itself was five stades in diameter 0. 92 km ; 0. 57 mi.

100 % solid PSAs may be low viscosity polymers that are coated and then reacted with radiation to increase molecular weight and form the adhesive ; or they may be high viscosity materials that are heated to reduce viscosity enough to allow coating, and then cooled to their final form.

Black powder had many disadvantages as a propellant ; it has relatively low power, requiring large amounts of powder to fire projectiles, and created thick clouds of white smoke that would obscure the targets, betray the positions of guns and make aiming impossible.

Many other formulations were developed in the following decades, generally trying to find the optimum characteristics of a good artillery propellant ; low temperature, high energy, non corrosive, highly stable, cheap, and easy to manufacture in large quantities.

One of these corrections is that for lamp flicker noise, which is independent of wavelength, resulting in measurements with very low noise level ; other corrections are those for background absorption, as will be discussed later.

Geiger detectors are still used as a general purpose alpha / beta portable Radioactive contamination measurement and detection instrument, owing to their relatively low cost, their robustness and their relatively high detection efficiency ; particularly with high energy beta particles.

Important potential properties of statistics include completeness, consistency, sufficiency, unbiasedness, minimum mean square error, low variance, robustness, and computational convenience.

It has been designed to meet the technical requirements of most applications ( in the field of broadcasting, telecommunication and recording on digital storage media ) — low delay, low complexity, error robustness, short access units, etc.

Soft computing deals with imprecision, uncertainty, partial truth, and approximation to achieve practicability, robustness and low solution cost.

Internal-geared hubs with 5, 7, 8 or even 14 gear ratios have become an option in recent years because of their robustness and low maintenance.

Modules with high cohesion tend to be preferable because high cohesion is associated with several desirable traits of software including robustness, reliability, reusability, and understandability whereas low cohesion is associated with undesirable traits such as being difficult to maintain, difficult to test, difficult to reuse, and even difficult to understand.

The simplicity, robustness and low cost of the tanks made them attractive on the export market, and China sold hundreds to both sides during the Iran – Iraq War.

In organisms with a high level of robustness, mutations will have smaller phenotypic effects than in organisms with a low level of robustness.

Its advantage is non-volatility, low power usage, and good shock robustness.

Quantization watermarks suffer from low robustness, but have a high information capacity due to rejection of host interference.

However, because of its robustness, consistent results and low price per test, RIA methods are again becoming popular.

Molded plastics, such as Kydex, are also popular, due to their low cost and robustness.

Secure voice's robustness greatly benefits from having the voice data compressed into very low bit-rates by special component called speech coding, voice compression or voice coder ( also known as vocoder ).

This scheme reportedly has high coding gain for low bit rate and potential robustness against channel errors and packet loss, since it does not use any variable length coding and adaptive bit allocation.

This makes DSSCs attractive as a replacement for existing technologies in " low density " applications like rooftop solar collectors, where the mechanical robustness and light weight of the glass-less collector is a major advantage.
