While the transcription of the Chinese words used by Ricci was not very consistent, he systematically used Latin p and t for unaspirated Chinese sounds that Pinyin renders as b and d. Accordingly, Ricci called the adherents of Laozi, Tausu (, Pinyin: Daoshi ), which was rendered as Tausa in an early English translation published by Samuel Purchas ( 1625 ).

While some have called it a RISC due to its rather spare nature ( and because that was a desirable marketing buzzword at the time ), it was heavily microcoded, had a limited register set, and complex memory-to-memory instructions, all of which place it firmly in the CISC camp.

While RNA interference relies on cellular components for efficacy ( e. g. the Dicer proteins, the RISC complex ) a simple alternative for gene knockdown is Morpholino antisense oligos.

While the RISC I design ran into delays, work at Berkeley had already turned to the new Blue design.

While considerably less powerful than the newer AT90 series of AVR RISC microcontrollers, new product development has continued with the AT89 series for the aforementioned advantages.

While removing the global clock signal makes the design process considerably more complex in many ways, asynchronous ( or clockless ) designs carry marked advantages in power consumption and heat dissipation in comparison with similar synchronous designs.

While it is not altogether clear whether totally asynchronous designs can perform at a comparable or better level than their synchronous counterparts, it is evident that they do at least excel in simpler math operations.

While many designs achieved the aim of higher throughput at lower cost and also allowed high-level language constructs to be expressed by fewer instructions, it was observed that this was not always the case.

While children who do not receive the fundamentals during their preschool years will be taught the alphabet, counting, shapes and colors and designs when they begin their formal education they will be behind the children who already possess that knowledge.

While the classic bosal-style hackamore is usually used to start young horses, other designs, such as various bitless bridles and the mechanical hackamore are often seen on mature horses with dental issues that make bit use painful, horses with certain training problems, and on horses with mouth or tongue injuries.

While Drexler, Merkle and others have created designs of simple parts, no comprehensive design effort for anything approaching the complexity of a Model T Ford has been attempted.

While ahead of its time, foreshadowing the designs of revolvers, it was not adopted or produced.

While there were flaws in the R3000's multiprocessor support, it still managed to be a part of several successful multiprocessor designs.

While modern amenities such as wi-fi Internet and flatscreen television would appear in the rooms, the exterior architecture and neon highway signage would be meticulously restored to original designs.

While early designs were simply a hook on the end of a long pole, later designs implemented a small reverse spike on the back of the blade.

While this design is mostly obsolete today, supplanted by the stronger yet equally convenient swing-out design, manufacturers have begun making reproductions of late 19th century designs for use in cowboy action shooting.

While the standard Tube map mostly avoided representing mainline rail services, a new variant of the map issued in 1973, the ' London's Railways ' map, was the first to depict Tube and surface rail services in a diagrammatic style closely matched to Beck's designs.

While yet a cardinal, he had restored the church of Santa Maria in Domnica after Raphael's designs ; and as pope he had San Giovanni dei Fiorentini, on the Via Giulia, built, after designs by Jacopo Sansovino and pressed forward the work on St Peter's Basilica and the Vatican under Raphael and Agostino Chigi.

While QuadraJets have been occasionally derided as being poor performers, with proper understanding and tuning it can compete at most levels with other designs short of the full race inspired set-ups such as the Holley Double-Pumpers, which incorporated accelerator pumps on the primary and secondary carburetor circuits.

While these areas are not officially called " Mystic Islands ", some homes of the original bungalow designs were constructed in these outlying areas, while at the same time, the larger, suburban homes were also offered on the original waterfront lots.

While inline liquid-cooled engines continued to be common in new designs until late in World War II, radial engines dominated afterwards until overtaken by jet engines, with the late-war Hawker Sea Fury and Grumman Bearcat, two of the fastest production piston-engined aircraft ever built, used radial engines.

While today some cheaper engines rely on a single camshaft per cylinder bank, which is known as a single overhead camshaft ( SOHC ), most modern engine designs ( the overhead-valve or OHV engine being largely obsolete on passenger vehicles ), are driven by a two camshafts per cylinder bank arrangement ( one camshaft for the intake valves and another for the exhaust valves ); such camshaft arrangement is known as a double or dual overhead cam ( DOHC ), thus, a V engine, which has two separate cylinder banks, may have four camshafts ( colloquially known as a quad-cam engine ).

While this technique can take longer for larger pieces it is useful for smaller, more detailed designs and enables shading to be used.
