Ninety years after Galton's death, the same questions that prompted him to propose eugenics -- whether selective breeding could be used to reduce a population's burden of disease or even to increase intelligence -- are again rising to the fore as new technologies make it increasingly possible to predict complex genetic traits.
Advancement of hardware platforms such as DSPs, FPGAs and ASICs in recent years has made it increasingly possible to implement computationally complex intelligent systems; on the other hand, however, the design and testing costs of these systems are high.
An additional feature of the hydrogel makes it increasingly favorable for use within complex structures.
These trends are generating an increased demand for much more complex ecological assessments, making it increasingly clear that to achieve its potential as a management tool, methods must be developed to apply ecological risk assessment to larger and more complex scales.
2) Integration: While building tightly integrated products with distributed team members might have been hard in the past, modern development tools and architectures have made it increasingly straightforward for even the most complex products to be built by distributed teams.
This complex interplay has made it increasingly apparent that immune responses are tailored to the individual patient and determined by the weight of each influence, and thus the label of asthma as a TH2 disease is too conservative.
Supply chain transactions have become more complex and international than ever, making it increasingly difficult for buyers to observe and ensure quality sellers (Terlaak and King 2006).
As the financial system becomes ever more complex and interconnected, this kind of assumption makes it increasingly likely that models will ignore the kinds of extreme events we saw in Belo Horizonte, or during the 2007 financial crisis.
And that makes it increasingly tougher.
Moffat has made it increasingly self-referential (the opening episode, Deep Breath, is littered with allusions to both age and Scottishness), but the show's detailed, complex and eccentric universe has always lent itself to fandom.
Facebook has made no secret of its desire to make the web more social but its increasingly complex privacy settings meant people were starting to give away more information than they wanted to more people than they intended.
