 GUIDELINES FOR DESIGNING USER INTERFACE SOFTWARE : Introduction
Guidelines can help establish rules for coordinating individual design contributions, can help to make design decisions just once rather than leaving them to be made over and over again by individual designers, can help to define detailed design requirements and to evaluate user interface software in comparison with those requirements.
Some computers may be embedded as components in larger systems, so that they communicate only with other computers and not directly with human users.
Because guidelines are based on what is known about good design, the resulting user interface is more likely to be usable.

 Centre for Health Evidence
Such randomized trials may, however, be unavailable, and guideline developers are in a different position from the authors of overviews who may abandon their project if there are not any high quality studies to summarize.
Guideline developers must consider not only all the best management options, but all the important consequences of the options.
For guidelines based on formal risk-benefit and cost-benefit analyses, declarations of acceptable levels of risks and cost per benefit achieved can help you make comparisons across guidelines.

 Geocaching Listing Requirements/Guidelines
This is an arbitrary distance and is just a guideline, but the ultimate goal is to reduce the number of caches hidden in a particular area and to reduce confusion that might otherwise result when one cache is found while looking for another.
This guideline applies to all stages of multicaches and mystery/puzzle caches, except for any “bogus” posted coordinates for a puzzle cache.
If for any reason it is not ready, please either disable your cache page so that it won’t be seen by the reviewer until ready, or include a “note to reviewer” to explain your special circumstances (for example, waiting for a permit from a land manager).

 Foresight Guidelines on Molecular Nanotechnology
The long-term goal was to eventually produce a dialog and set of Guidelines that would be useful to policy makers, the public, and the MNT research and development community.
Care must be taken that future revisions of the Guidelines do not become so restrictive that they simply drive MNT research and development underground.
Such means should not restrict the development of peaceful applications of the technology or defensive measures by responsible members of the international community.

Guidelines, as generic tools to improve the processes of care for patient cohorts, serve to reduce errors, and provide consistent quality of care and utilization of resources throughout the system.
