Each of these patients was initially treated by using a standard protocol with intravitreal (vancomycin and ceftazidime), systemic, and topical antibiotics.

It was standard protocol for the excavators to only identify map larger faunal remains, articulated remains, and formal artifacts.

This has led to variations on the standard protocol e.g. mixed-substrate zymography.

But while our natural languages usually lack the top-down engineering of code, they are still highly conservative, and only marginally tolerant of departures from standard protocols.

Standard protocols are also written in this command language and can be modified by user without changing the source code.
