We find that for a given system, there is a clear optimum device thickness and that increasing the interface area at the expense of device thickness past this value will lead to a decrease in solar cell efficiency.
While the bifurcation design could be configured with a larger number of channels to increase throughput, it comes at the expense of device footprint; the 64-channel Z-configuration occupied an area of 35 × 45 mm (4 selection beds) while the same number of channels for 4 selection beds using the bifurcation configuration would have required an area of 128 × 160 mm.
There has been significant research on efficient multicast source authentication algorithms based on symmetric cryptography that attempt to minimize the computation expense of the devices.
They indicate that smartphones, no matter the expense of the device itself or the accompanying data plan, are increasingly becoming a necessity, not a luxury.
But the expense of fibre channel devices limits FC-SAN applications.
Reducing the duty cycle of droplet/analyte ejection increases the analyte residence time and, in turn, improves ionization efficiency, but at an expense of the reduced device throughput.
The study was conducted to evaluate the impact of out-of-pocket expense on intrauterine device (IUD) utilization among women with private insurance.
Employees who want electronics that cost more than their companies are willing to pay or who desire devices like iPads that often fail to qualify for a stipend, don't like the additional expense of buying their own devices.
Now, I'm not a huge fan of self-serving reports like this, but one thing jumped out at me when I spoke with Erik Moreno, Co- General Manager of MCV and Senior VP of Corporate Development at Fox Networks Group – and that's the timing of the launch, in light of the crackdowns on mobile carriers' "unlimited" data offerings, and the expense of getting all your devices under one umbrella.
Adoption of unmodified CDC guidelines was impeded by modifying factors such as conditions of the physical plant, absence of an infection control infrastructure, limited sterilization capabilities, lack of clinical microbiologic laboratory support, and the expense of single use medical devices.
The town of Montclair, N.J., this year closed its budget gap through a mix of devices: trimming expenses, raising property taxes, and boosting fees on limousine and garage-sale permits as well as landscaping and arcade licenses.
