Among the groups whose armed campaigns have been fuelled by large-scale heavy weapons supplies from Gaddafi's looted arsenals is Boko Haram.
North Korea claims the US mainland is now within range of its missiles after it successfully test-fired a new rocket it says is capable of carrying a "large-scale, heavy nuclear warhead".
Plants producing iron and steel, processed foods, and electrical equipment are located in Xiangtan, while Zhuzhou is the hub of large-scale heavy industry (notably chemical fertilizers and nonferrous metals) and commodity exports.
Although these maps should, in general, be able to identify regions of large-scale heavy cumulative rainfall associated with tropical cyclones, for instance, they should not be used for forecasting cyclone tracks or the intensity or location of intense fine-scale or localized precipitation (associated with orography, for example).
On the basis of the minerals, large-scale heavy industry has developed, with iron and steel plants in Magnitogorsk, Chelyabinsk city (the administrative headquarters), Zlatoust, Satka, and Asha and a wide range of heavy- and medium-engineering industries in many towns.
With the recent progress toward the application of commercially-available hardware to small-scale space missions, it is now becoming feasible for groups of small, efficient robots based on low-power embedded hardware to perform simple tasks on other planets in the place of large-scale, heavy and expensive robots.
Businesses running large-scale, heavy workloads on their servers could see a significant impact, but the average PC user shouldn't experience any noticeable slowdown, Roth said.
These characteristics imply relevant applications from the study of plant and animal evolution to human disease, with specific advantages in large scale, storage-heavy projects as the PanCancer Analysis of Whole-Genomes (PCAWG) project (analyzing 2500 cancer tumor-normal pairs), which are limited to a single alignment format due to high storage and computational demands.
In the wake of the Big Bang, the universe is thought to have been primarily composed of H and He, with nearly all large scale production of heavier elements taking place through nuclear fusion in the cores of the first stars.
