District heating (DH) became a central technology for providing heat and hot water in the residential and service building sector of the city of Graz over the years.
Mass spectrometry (MS) is widely considered to be the central technology for modern proteomics, mainly because of its unsurpassed sensitivity and throughput.
With ChIP-seq now being the central technology for studying transcriptional regulation, it is most crucial to accurately characterize, quantify, and adjust for the genome-wide effects of biases affecting ChIP-seq.
In recent years the central technology for this work has been liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LC-MS), which can be used to address both of these issues.
In the reversible mode, electroporation has become a central technology for cell manipulation (Richter et al, 1981; Neumann et al, 1982), and, in combination with chemicals, it is considered promising for gene therapy (Titomirov et al, 1991; Heller and Heller, 2010), and is also used clinically for electrochemotherapy (Snoj et al, 2007; Gargiulo et al, 2010).
The Big Data formula, he noted, has proved to be "incredibly powerful" for tasks like natural-language processing — a central technology behind Google search, for instance.
RIM, as the Blackberry company is known, has sued Glenayre Electronics Inc., a personal telecommunications provider, for patent and trademark infringement because it said Glenayre was copying the central technology in its patent, an invention that RIM called its mailbox integration technology.
Wind turbines and photovoltaic modules have emerged as central renewable energy technologies for decarbonising the German electricity sector and achieving the long-term policy objective of reaching an 80% share of renewable energy sources (RES) in gross electricity consumption by 2050 [1].
Medical imaging has experienced explosive growth over the past few decades and now plays a central role in noninvasive imaging technologies for biomedical research.
For example, as materials science plays a central role in developing innovative technologies for the growing energy market, scientists like Arindam Ghosh at IISc are advancing materials research in graphene for solar cells and nanoelectronics.
