We'd be more than happy to see every data centre fuelled by 100% renewable energy sources.
Japanese companies have been buying overseas assets at a record pace – spending more than $65bn so far this year, according to data provider Dealogic – fuelled by a strong yen and cheap borrowing costs.
In another remark, Cook will say: "We will never achieve technology's true potential without the full faith and confidence of the people who use it" — which looks like a not-so-coded attack on big tech's trust crisis, which continues to be fuelled by data breach after data breach, every passing week.
Wall Street opened higher this afternoon, fuelled by data showing the US grew at a stronger-than-expected pace, and reducing investors' fears the country will fall into a double-dip recession.
Data gathering has been fuelled by the advancements performed in "next generation sequencing" techniques and the need of generating robust phylogenetic information for evolutionary studies at all taxonomic levels, from deep metazoan evolution [ 6], relationships among vertebrate orders [ 7, 8], or even to resolve species-level phylogenies after rapid radiation processes [ 9, 10].
Fuelled by data-generating power, the number of coral based studies utilising transcriptomics to investigate molecular responses to environmental stressors has expanded greatly by the acquisition of expressed sequence tag (EST) gene libraries, the fabrication of microarray biochips used to estimate levels of mRNA expression, and by direct analysis using next-generation, high-throughput sequencing.
Of course, this data driven approach is being fuelled by advancements in technology.
The remarkable advances in TB vaccinology over the last decade have been driven by a pragmatic approach to moving candidates along the development pipeline to clinical trials, fuelled by encouraging data on protection in animal models.
There have been a lot of social marketing efforts aimed squarely at making content go viral, but equally there seems to be a rising trend, fuelled by big data analytics, of brands (and social media sites themselves) looking at ways of targeting very specific groups of users who are the most likely to respond.
1 The search for causal viruses is fuelled by epidemiological data suggesting an infectious trigger and by the enigmatic specificity of unique oligoclonal IgG bands (OCB) that are found in the cerebrospinal fluid of ∼95% of MS patients and reflect intrathecal IgG synthesis.
