    Orphan date February 2009 Building life cycle refers to the view of a building over the course of its entire life in other words, viewing it not just as an operational building, but also taking into account the design , installation, commissioning, operation and decommissioning phases. It is useful to use this view when attempting to improve an operational feature of a building that is related to how a building was designed. For example, overall Efficient energy use energy conservation . In the vast majority of cases there is less than sufficient effort put into designing a building to be energy efficient and hence large inefficiencies are incurred in the operational phase. Current research is ongoing in exploring methods of incorporating a whole life cycle view of buildings, rather than just focusing on the operational phase as is the current situation.

  1. Life cycle hypothesis

    Refimprove date December 2009 The Life Cycle Hypothesis LCH is an economics economic concept analysing individual consumption economics consumption pattern s. It was developed by the economist s Irving Fisher , Roy Harrod , Albert Ando and Franco Modigliani . Background Unlike the Keynesian consumption function , which assumes consumption is entirely based on current income, LCH assumes that individuals consume a constant percentage of the present value of their life income . The life cycle model also predicts that individuals save while they work in order to finance consumption after they retire. If this theory is true, the economy of most industrialized countries should see a large drop in individual saving over the next two decades as a large segment of the population reaches retirement age. Miller, however, carried the stable consumption pattern by observing that people would try to stabilize consumption over their entire lifetime. He stressed that the way consumers save their pY is based on forward looking expectations. The future provides a rigorous connection between consumption expenditure and the value of assets held by the consumer. Household consumption over their lifetime should equal to Household Y Holding of assets that come from sources other than work, e.g. gifts. Model The Life Cycle Hypothesis can be explained by the equation math C W RY T math Where W Initial endowed wealth, R Retirement age, Y Income, and T Number of years of the individual s lifespan.

  1. Safety life cycle

    Unreferenced date December 2009 The safety life cycle is the series of phases from initiation and specifications of safety requirements, covering design and development of safety features in a safety critical system, and ending in decommissioning of that system. The basic concept in building software safety, ie safety features in software, is that safety characteristics and behaviour of the software and system must be specified and designed into the system. The problem for any systems designer lies in reducing the risk to an acceptable level and of course, the risk tolerated will vary between applications. When a software application is to be used in a safety related system, then this must be borne in mind at all stages in the software lifecycle. The process of safety specification and assurance throughout the development and operational phases is sometimes called the safety life cycle . The first stages of the life cycle involve assessing the potential system hazards and estimating the risk they pose. One such method is fault tree analysis . This is followed by a safety requirements specification which is concerned with identifying safety critical functions functional requirements specification and the safety integrity level for each of these functions. The specification may either describe how the software should behave to minimize the risk or might require that the hazard should never arise. A normal process model is then followed with particular attention paid to the validation inspection, testing etc of the system. Part of that validation should be an explicit safety validation activity.

Most species of phasmid are parthenogenic , meaning that females lay eggs without mating with males. These eggs are all female and will be exact copies of the parent females. Over the seasons , the egg will be required to survive weather changes. To do this, the egg has a little fatty knob called the capitullum, which ants are attracted to. Ants take the egg underground to their nest where the egg will hatch. Upon hatching, the nymph will emerge and mimic an ant until it is out of the nest then the nymph will scuttle up a tree to begin the journey of life. Once through nymphal stage the phasmid will look like their parents. For example Extatosoma tiaratum E.tiaratum the nymph begins it life cycle with the appearance of an ant and when moulted it looks like a miniature adult. When the nymph reaches the semi adult stage it changes to protect itself. Such protection depends of the species of phasmid. Among such adaptations, some spray fluids , some have very sharp spines and others rely on camouflage to protect themselves. Adulthood is reached for most species around at around six months of age. The stick insects will continue to molt as they mature, reaching impressive sizes. Often, the insects will eat the skins that they molt. The lifespans of phasmids vary by species but can range from a few months to up to two years for some tropical species. Adult Adult female phasmids usually have wing s but are only able to glide males, on the other hand, have wings capable of true flight and are usually found around lights. Breeding While mating, males use their ability to fly ... phasmid are laid. Females, when ready to lay, will flick the eggs to the ground where the cycle ...   more details



  1. Product life-cycle theory

    Orphan date February 2009 The product life cycle theory is an economic theory that was developed by Raymond Vernon in response to the failure of the Heckscher Ohlin model to explain the observed pattern of international trade . The theory suggests that early in a product s life cycle all the parts and labor associated with that product come from the area in which it was invented. After the product becomes adopted and used in the world markets, production gradually moves away from the point of origin. In some situations, the product becomes an item that is imported by its original country of invention. ref cite book last Hill first Charles authorlink Charles Hill title International Business Competing in the Global Marketplace 6th ed. publisher McGraw Hill year 2007 pages 168 doi isbn 978 0 07 310255 9 ref A commonly used example of this is the invention, growth and production of the personal computer with respect to the United States . The model applies to labor saving and capital using products that at least at first cater to high income groups. In the new product stage, the product is produced and consumed in the US no export trade occurs. In the maturing product stage, mass production techniques are developed and foreign demand in developed countries expands the US now exports the product to other developed countries. In the standardized product stage, production moves to developing countries, which then export the product to developed countries. The model demonstrates dynamic comparative advantage . The country that has the comparative advantage in the production of the product changes from the innovating developed country to the developing countries.

    multiple issues unreferenced December 2009 rewrite May 2009 copyedit September 2010 The life cycle of a relational database is the cycle of development and changes that a relational database goes through during the course of its life. The cycle typically consists of several stages. There is a possibility that the database designer developer can go back to any of the previous stages. This represents an admission that a full understanding of a problem and its solution is likely to evolve as the various stages of design and implementation proceed. The typical eleven stages involved in the life cycle of a relational database are as follows Process The designer must try to obtain as complete as possible an understanding of the real world problem that is going to be helped by the introduction of a database. This understanding of the nature of the problem and the constraints and outline feasible solutions is often performed using some systems analysis methodology. The entity relationship diagram is drawn, and this diagram in its modified form serves as an essential part of the logical schema. Attributes of the entity types so produced are then added. Primary key Primary and Foreign key foreign keys are specified. Database normalization Normalization is used to check the entity relationship model . Some splitting and even recombination of entity types may result from normalization and the entity relationship model will have to be updated accordingly.

There are three castes of honey bees Queen bee queens , which produce eggs drone bee drones or males, which mate with new queens and have no stinger and worker bee workers , which are all non reproducing females. The queen lays eggs singly in cells of the honeycomb comb . Larva e hatch from eggs in three to four days. They are then fed by worker bees and develop through several stages in the cells. Cells are capped by worker bees when the larva pupa tes. Queens and drones are larger than workers and so require larger cells to develop. A colony may typically consist of tens of thousands of individuals. While some colonies live in hives provided by humans, so called wild colonies although all honey bees remain wild, even when cultivated and managed by humans typically prefer a nest site that is clean, dry, protected from the weather, about 20 liters in volume with a 4 to 6 cm entrance about 3 m above the ground, and preferably facing south or south east in the northern hemisphere or north or north east in the southern hemisphere .
