Innovation is regularly a disorderly process, but rarely moreso than in situations where a search for new, complex technologies proceeds in environments rich with uncertainties (re materials, scientific knowledge, strategy, reliability) and where that search proceeds through cycles of redesign fed by feedback from testing and use.
The workflow for these new sequencing technologies proceeds as follows: library creation, library quantification, massively parallel clonal PCR amplification of library molecules, and sequencing.
The relevance to human disease risk of positive Darwinian selection, and balancing selection, along the human lineage is an empirical problem that can be attacked with increasing power and precision as advances in genomic technology proceed.
But if development of antimissile technology proceeded on schedule, the Bush administration would consider declaring Fort Greely a working missile defense system as early as 2004, if there was credible evidence of a missile threat to the United States, Pentagon officials said.
Despite these facts, the preparations for the return of the Fischer-Tropsch technology proceeded slowly.
Ms Baines from Europol said: "What we know is that technology proceeds much more quickly than we expect it to.
The development of equestrian technology proceeded at a similar pace as the development of horse breeding and utilisation.
As genetics technology proceeds, practices of genetic testing have become more heterogeneous: many different types of tests are finding their way to the public in different settings and for a variety of purposes.
The exiting challenges and difficulties for this technology to proceed from successful laboratory photocatalysis set-up up to an industrially relevant scale are also proposed.
A project by Google to reimagine classic advertising campaigns from the 1960s and 1970s for contemporary sensibilities — and technologies — is proceeding with work for two additional brands.
