Recognition of the importance of tribotronics, or active control of system loss outputs, such as those through friction and wear will have significant beneficial economic consequences as a result of the associated accelerated rate of technological progress.
One of the main problems in maintaining high-quality education in knowledge-intensive areas such as Computational Science is rapid obsolescence of learning materials due to the accelerating rate of an appearance of novel research and technological achievements.
Her team is "accelerating rates of evolution, not introducing new evolutionary innovation".
In contrast, W135E showed a modestly accelerated rate of apoptosis.
This provides an opportunity to develop a more robust approach to industrial strategy, one that can adapt to the accelerating pace of technological change.
Four endosymbiont groups showed strong accelerated rates of evolution.
Because of the accelerated life cycle in technology and correspondingly rapid technological saturation in markets, firms are not only accelerating the rate of technological innovation but also expanding the scope of their products or services by combining product or service features of other markets, which eventually leads to industry convergence.
The significance of these variables has been recognized in a recent study, to wit "Our analyses strongly implicate publication as an important mechanism for accelerating the rate of technological innovation".
Our analyses strongly implicate publication as an important mechanism for accelerating the rate of technological innovation: Patents that reference published material, whether peer-reviewed or not, receive more citations, primarily because their influence diffuses faster in time and space.
The line turnoffs are occurring at an accelerating rate, driven by a variety of technological shifts: ever-heavier use of cell-phones, burgeoning offerings of phone service from cable companies and less need for second phone lines.
