We face a paradox in the 21st century: We desperately need an educated workforce to fill jobs that are increasingly skilled and technological; yet we are making earning a college degree less attainable.
Because even small amounts of contaminants can give rise to seriously misleading results in chemical identification, purification of a compound for this purpose must be carried to the highest attainable degree; it is highly desirable to subject a substance to a succession of purification procedures based upon different principles, such as distillation and crystallization.
This immediately gives all quadratic operators as well, while operators of higher degree are not attainable.
Particular focus is placed on the selectivity and degree of enrichment attainable, as well as demands of speed, absolute quantification, robustness and, ultimately, consideration of fully-integrated bioanalytical solutions to optimise sample handling and throughput.
He formulates four criteria or conditions "the complete fulfillment of which would establish a significant proposition, apparently self-evident, in the highest degree of certainty attainable: and which must be approximately realised by the premises of our reasoning in any inquiry, if that reasoning is to lead us cogently to trustworthy conclusions" (Sidgwick, 1907: 338).
"( 1-overline{P} ) measures the degree of agreement attainable over and above what would be predicted by chance" (Fleiss 1971), ( overline{P}-{overline{P}}_e ) measures "the degree of agreement actually attained in excess of chance" (Fleiss 1971), and the whole equation is a "normalized measure of overall agreement, corrected for the amount expected by chance" (Fleiss 1971).
We develop and extensively analyze a computational model of coevolution of different defense strategies to show that suicide as a defense mechanism can evolve only in structured populations and when the attainable degree of immunity against pathogens is limited.
The kind of Academic skepticism followed by Erasmus assumes that absolute certitude is out of reach but that a high degree of probability is attainable.
The highest possible closeness, degree, and centrality score attainable is 1 if farmers practically mention everyone in their farmers' group as a source of agricultural advice, because we used the standardized centrality.
Titania films were deposited on nickel substrates from a dilute solution of titanium isopropoxide (TTIP) in toluene in order to study the growth rate and degree of microstructure control attainable with a metalorganic chemical vapor deposition system called pulsed-MOCVD.
