The conclusion of the study is that both the main factors and the interactions between them have to be analysed to establish an accurate ranking of the technical and economic factors.
A real world scenario is used in which experts were asked to rank a set of technical attacks, and to answer a series of questions about the security components that are the subject of the attacks.
Furthermore, the stability of the rank, the influence of technical errors on data analysis, and the preference of data analysis methods for selecting highly abundant metabolites were affected by the data pretreatment method used prior to data analysis.
The judges, Keith Young, a 12-year veteran firefighter and author of a cookbook called "Cooking With the Firehouse Chef"; Jacques Torres, the master chocolatier; and Ted Allen, the host of the Food Network's cooking competition, "Chopped," took their task seriously, ranking the food on a host of technical criteria including presentation and taste.
Since then, South Korean electronics manufacturers have bounded into the global top ranks, helped along by that transfer of technical knowledge.
Theory suggests a ranking of potentials as: Theoretical > technical > economic > sustainable.
