Examples of resolution in the following topics:

  • Budget Resolutions

    • The budget resolution also sets spending ceilings for the Congressional committees that have jurisdiction over spending.
    • The budget resolution binds Congress, but it is not law since it is not sent to the President.
    • In some instances, Congress has not adopted a budget resolution.
    • No penalty exists if the budget resolution is not completed by April 15th or if it is not completed at all.
    • However, some enforceable spending ceilings cannot be established until the budget resolution is completed.
  • Limits of Resolution and Circular Aperatures

    • In optical imaging, there is a fundamental limit to the resolution of any optical system that is due to diffraction.
    • However, there is a fundamental maximum to the resolution of any optical system that is due to diffraction (a wave nature of light).
    • To increase the resolution, shorter wavelengths can be used such as UV and X-ray microscopes.
    • These techniques offer better resolution but are expensive, suffer from lack of contrast in biological samples and may damage the sample.
    • Although these techniques improve some aspect of resolution, they generally involve an enormous increase in cost and complexity.
  • Magnification and Resolution

    • Magnification is the enlargement of an image; resolution is the ability to tell two objects apart.
    • In reality, therefore, microbiologists depend more on resolution, as they want to be able to determine differences between microbes or parts of microbes.
    • Resolution depends on the distance between two distinguishable radiating points.
    • Each of these contributes to the optical resolution of the system, as will the environment in which the imaging is performed.
    • Using computer algorithms and other technology the panel on the right has a higher resolution and is therefore clearer.
  • Resolution of Racemates

    • Separation of racemates into their component enantiomers is a process called resolution.
    • Since enantiomers have identical physical properties, such as solubility and melting point, resolution is extremely difficult.
    • Diastereomers, on the other hand, have different physical properties, and this fact is used to achieve resolution of racemates.
  • Team Conflict Resolution and Management

    • Some ways of dealing with conflict seek resolution; others aim to minimize negative effects on the team.
    • Teams use one of three primary approaches to conflict resolution: integrative, distributive, and mediating.
    • Integrative approaches focus on the issue to be solved and aim to find a resolution that meets everyone's needs.
  • High Resolution Spectra

    • The table below illustrates this important feature, and a double-focusing high-resolution mass spectrometer easily distinguishes ions having these compositions.
  • Resolving Conflicts

    • The judiciary also provides a mechanism for the resolution of disputes.
    • More narrowly, dispute resolution is the process of resolving disputes between parties.
    • The legal system provides a necessary structure for the resolution of many disputes.
    • Some disputes need the coercive power of the state to enforce a resolution.
    • The most common form of judicial dispute resolution is litigation.
  • The Cost of Maintaining the Government

    • The Budget committees each submit a budget resolution by April 1.
    • Budget resolutions specify funding levels for appropriations committees and subcommittees.
    • Congress has then enacted continuing resolutions that provide for the temporary funding of government operations.
    • The next step is the drafting of a budget resolution.
    • A budget resolution, which is one form of a concurrent resolution, binds Congress, but is not a law, and so does not require the President's signature.
  • Political Strife and American Independence

    • On May 10, 1776, Congress passed a resolution recommending that any colony lacking a proper (i.e. a revolutionary) government should form such.
    • The resolution of independence was delayed for several weeks as revolutionaries consolidated support for independence in their home governments.
    • On June 7, 1776, Richard Henry Lee tabled a resolution before the Continental Congress declaring the colonies independent.
    • Congress would formally adopt the resolution of independence, but only after creating three overlapping committees to draft the Declaration, a Model Treaty, and the Articles of Confederation.
    • Congress finally approved the resolution of independence on July 2, 1776.
  • Arbitration

    • Arbitration is a form of dispute resolution that can be used to resolve international commercial, investment, and interstate conflicts.
    • Arbitration, a form of alternative dispute resolution, is a legal technique for the resolution of disputes outside the courts, where the parties to a dispute refer it to one or more persons by whose decision they agree to be bound.
    • It is a resolution technique in which a third party reviews the evidence in the case and imposes a decision that is legally binding for both sides and enforceable.
    • Arbitration is often used for the resolution of commercial disputes, particularly in the context of international commercial transactions.
    • Arbitration has been used for centuries for the resolution of disputes between states and state-like entities.
