As cities continue to expand and proliferate, demand for urban land, and thus its value, is set to increase sharply.
Even as digital technology continues to proliferate, demand for chips in laptop computers, cellphones and other electronic devices is not growing as fast as it once did.
Certainly, that's already an indication in trans-Atlantic travel, where fare sales are proliferating as demand slackens and capacity is shrinking.
Combine a culture that increasingly encourages self-expression; an economy that generates considerable surplus capital with low interest rates; Moore's Law-like improvements in performance-per-dollar in production technology; proliferating on demand distribution outlets for digital media; and persistent underemployment for liberal arts graduates; and what do you get?
Not surprisingly, such companies proliferated as demand soared for Gazprom in the energy boom.
In the case of proliferating cells their demand was specified as their abundance times the proliferation rate μ, the latter fixing the rate of the auxiliary reaction modeling biomass synthesis (Table S1, Biomass synthesis auxiliary reaction).
In this universe of proliferating choice, demand is said to be shifting from a few mass products (at the head of the distribution curve) towards a great many niche interests (at the tail end), as argued by Chris Anderson in "The Long Tail .It turns out, however, that despite the availability of all the extra stuff the hits are as important as ever.
The data suggest that NICU beds may not be proliferating because of natural demand alone.
As a consequence, mitochondrial cholesterol loading in cancer cells may contribute, in part, to the Warburg effect stimulating aerobic glycolysis to meet the energetic demand of proliferating cells, while protecting cancer cells against mitochondrial apoptosis due to changes in mitochondrial membrane dynamics.
