  subtype:  #mnemonics__mnemonic  a method or system for improving the memory
  subtype:  #solution.method  a method for solving a problem; "the easy solution is to look it up in the handbook"
  subtype:  #technique  a practical method or art applied to some particular task
     subtype:  #Benday_process  a photoengraving technique for adding shading or texture or tone to a printed image
     subtype:  #bonding.technique  (dentistry) a technique for repairing a tooth; resinous material is applied to the surface of the tooth where it adheres to the tooth's enamel
     subtype:  #emulation.technique  (computer science) technique of one machine obtaining the same results as another
        subtype:  #terminal_emulation  (computer science) having a computer act exactly like a terminal
     subtype:  #immunofluorescence  (immunology) a technique that uses antibodies linked to a fluorescent dye in order to study antigens in a sample of tissue
     subtype:  #computer_simulation__simulation  (computer science) the technique of representing the real world by a computer program; "a simulation should imitate the internal processes and not merely the results of the thing being simulated"
