Even if they cannot decrypt what suspects are saying to one another, a change of traffic may raise alarm, since a large increase may indicate increased preparation for action, while a sudden decrease may indicate the end of planning and the imminence of action.

Signals and slots is a language construct introduced in Qt toolkit Qt , which makes it easy to implement the Observer pattern while avoiding Boilerplate code boilerplate code . The concept is that controls also known as GUI widget widgets can send signals containing event information e.g. the text toto was selected, the scrollbar has been adjusted to value 37 which can be received by other controls using special functions known as slots. The signal slot system fits well with the way Graphical User Interface s are designed. Similarly, the signal slot system can be used for asynchronous I O including sockets, pipes, serial devices, etc. event notification or to associate timeout events with appropriate object instances and methods or functions. No registration deregistration invocation code need be written, because Qt s Meta Object Compiler MOC automatically generates the needed infrastructure.
