Nevertheless, in the context of SOA on the web, there are already many services that provide equivalent functionality, thus making such techniques more practical (Zheng and Lyu [2010b]).
Mid-sized companies can acquire fully configured data warehouse appliances for as little as $20,000 per terabyte, compared to the $200,000-plus 200,000-plus they would have had to per for equivalenterabyteonalitheyust a fewouldrs ago.
Moreover, cameras can be used to satisfy several applications at once by re-processing the same vision data in multiple ways, thereby reducing the total number of sensors required to achieve equivalent functionality.
Although sgRNAs expressed from a DNA vector are predominant in the literature, guide RNAs can be rapidly generated by chemical synthesis and provide equivalent functionality in gene editing experiments.
The more negative view is that Apple is struggling to maintain its hold on a shrinking smartphone industry, and the increasing R&D spend is really a defensive maneuver designed to protect its high sale prices (and thus margins) against significantly cheaper competitors who offer nearly equivalent functionality.
Although PHAs with equivalent functionality to conventional plastics can be produced by bacterial fermentation at a large scale, their production accounts so far for only a small fraction of the global plastic production, which is mostly due to the comparably high production costs (Keshavarz and Roy 2010).
Its leading rivals, H&R Block and TaxAct, have exploited the uproar by pointing out their lower price and equivalent functionality--H&R Block even offers its software for free to discontented TurboTax users.
Food industries aim to replace trans fat in their products by formulations having equivalent functionality and economic viability.
There are redundant combinations of traits through which joint configurations can provide nominally equivalent functionality under normal loading conditions.
