In certain patients, stents reduce the renarrowing that occurs after balloon angioplasty or other procedures that use catheters. Stents also help restore normal blood flow and keep an artery open if it's been torn or injured by the balloon catheter.

The stent is a sterile hollow flexible tube that the physician places into the kidney drainage system. This allows the kidney to drain around the pieces of stone. It also continues to drain the kidney as you pass the stone fragments created by the lithotripsy procedure.

There are three main advantages of using Metastorage over traditional development methods that are less automated: Metastorage is capable of generating code from your component model definition in just a few seconds. It would take days or weeks to write, test and debug equivalent code manually by a human developer. This is very important to reduce the time to market your software products, especially if they are medium or large size projects.

Clean. Geothermal power plants, like wind and solar power plants, do not have to burn fuels to manufacture steam to turn the turbines. Generating electricity with geothermal energy helps to conserve nonrenewable fossil fuels, and by decreasing the use of these fuels, we reduce emissions that harm our atmosphere. There is no smoky air around geothermal power plants -- in fact some are built in the middle of farm crops and forests, and share land with cattle and local wildlife.

Having different BISLs tailored to each programming language allows each BISL to specify all the details of a program module's interface (how to call it) and behavior (what it does). If one has a generic interface specification language, such as VDM-SL [Jones90] [ISO-VDM96] [Fitzgerald-Larsen98], then one cannot specify all interface details. The division into two tiers allows the language used for each tier to be more carefully designed and expressive.
