Accordingly, outsourcing is evolving into a strategic tool for change, with customers outsourcing not only their back-office functions such as the management of information technology infrastructure and data operations but also their intellectually based functions such as research, product development, human resources, marketing, accounting and legal services.
Previous reports [12], [17], [51], [52], including some of our own [42], [53], have indicated that this is true of almost all known potential functions, though functions specifically designed to model a particular class of proteins (or peptides) [27], or functions based on known protein structures [39] tend to perform better than general, physics-based functions such as the one we have used.
Siemens says its connected-home appliances will work with your Wi-Fi network, and won't require vast dollops of bandwidth to use the internet-based functions, such as connecting to customer service: even a ropey 2Mbps connection will cope with the remote customer service function.
The chat head also supports gestures such as a left or right swipe which can be used for other gesture-based functions — such as deleting a word from the suggestions bar above the keyboard.
Two strategies for data localization leading to optimal usage of cache memory are demonstrated to speed up certain cell-based functions (such as collision computations) by a factor of 3.38 4.36.
Ezrin is required for epithelial cell integrity and participates in several actin-based functions such as organization of the apical surface of epithelial cells [ 3, 4], cell adhesion [ 5, 6], cell motility and morphogenesis [ 3, 7].
Optimization is carried out based on multivariable functions such as effectiveness and total cost.
In order to improve the overall performance of this DPF, its multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) model is established based on objective functions such as pressure drop, regeneration performance, microwave energy consumption, and thermal shock resistance.
In electrochemiluminescence (ECL) sensing area, nanomaterials have also gained crescent attention for their excellent performance based on different functions, such as innovative luminophores, molecule carriers, electrode modification materials and reaction catalysts.
In Iraq, the DOD employed over 39,000 private contractors to perform "base support functions such as maintaining the grounds, running dining facilities, and performing laundry services"...
This approach is based on the minimization of a generalized objective function, previous methods based on specified objective functions (such as quadratic objective functions) can be shown to be special cases.
