Dutch term

gunstige uitvoeringsvorm

Dutch to English Law/Patents Patents
this seems to be quite common among patents, for example, http://ziclok.com/cont/NL1033810C2.pdf

I don't know the standard term though, has it something to do with 'best mode'? (http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/pac/mpep/s2165.html)
Proposed translations (English)
4 +3 advantageous embodiment

I'm not an expert in this field but 'Practical implementation' might work. See: http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.163...
