But in an interconnected world, success is measured not only by the size of their fortunes but also by their ability to use their billions to achieve recognition and influence far beyond the grimy precincts of their industrial triumphs.
A team of researchers led by Tononi has designed a device that stimulates the brain with electrical voltage, to measure how interconnected and organised – how "integrated" – its neural circuits are.
Water absorption (WA) capacity has two purposes: (a) measuring the interconnected porosity, which is useful for mechanical concrete analysis and durability issues, and (b) allowing adjustment of the amount of water used in concrete production.
B. NEW SOLUTIONS 9. Interconnected issues require interconnected solutions.
And how do we reinvent a return to innocence to reclaim those essential elements of the self that are necessary to flourish in our contemporary climate, where, ironically, staying connected in our interconnected world is, in equal measure, both harder and more important than ever?
The research community should be involved in the development of goals, targets and indicators, recognising interconnected issues and building on existing measures of well-being.
In theory, mortality measurement is based on highly interconnected relationships between the actual situation one wants to measure, the methods available for measurement and data needs, which should be informed by the intended use of the data.
Two-career middle-class couples can go off to work in no small measure because of an interconnected system (mostly bus lines) that deposits cheap and reliable household help near their doors each day.
In [16], an algorithm based on principal component analysis is presented for identifying coherent generators of an interconnected power system by using the measured data sets of generator speeds and bus angles.
It thus measures the pore volume that is effectively interconnected and accessible to the surface of the sample, which is important when considering the storage and movement of subsurface fluids such as petroleum, groundwater, or contaminated fluids.
