Data centers are the largest consumers of electricity worldwide as they consume around 3% of the world’s electricity, which is expected to exceed 8% by 2030. Also, the increasing construction of hyperscale data centers will raise the energy demand by more than 600 terawatt-hours by 2021. A data center can consume power ranging from 100 kW to over 100 MW. The incoming power to the facility from the utility feed is 2−33 kV, which is reduced to 480 V using on-site transformers. The power from the transformer is fed into the switchgear or automatic transfer switches (ATS), which are connected in parallel to the generator to supply backup power during outages.

Data centers are mainly built-in response to growing customer demand. However, the areas for the development and operation of data centers are identified based on factors such as power availability, fiber connectivity, and availability of skilled labor. Most modern data centers are built as per Tier III and Tier IV standards, thereby enabling high availability of service offerings. The development of edge computing is fostering data center development in secondary data center markets, where the dependence on site selection is very high. The major site selection criteria for data centers are mentioned in the table below, along with the identified level of importance for each criterion and a description of the same.

The landscape of hematological malignancies emerging therapeutics is massively growing, with many emerging and legacy companies venturing into the industry with their respective therapeutic portfolio exclusively developed and designed for the targeted treatment of hematological malignancies such as leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. In the era of precision medicine, the introduction of monoclonal antibody- and CAR-T cell-based therapies have garnered a new hope in the oncology community, owing to their ability to induce effective response for the treatment of hematological malignancies. Hematological malignancies are very complex to treat due to their varying pathological and immunological characteristics,

Earth observation data and services market cater to different end-users such as government and defense, archaeology and civil infrastructure, energy and natural resources, agriculture, forestry and fishery, and maritime. In 2020, the global satellite Earth observation market was dominated by government and defense, energy, and natural resources. This is due to the high utilization of data and services in addressing military and tactical surveillance, monitoring of critical structures and ground assets, mining exploration, soil erosion monitoring, oil exploration, and optimization of renewable energy production.

The satellite spectrum monitoring market has various end users such as aerospace, maritime, oil and gas, military, government, and media and entertainment. Satellite spectrum monitoring is an emerging market as the spectrum is getting more crowded with the advancement of technology. This chapter explains the various end users on which the satellite spectrum monitoring systems are being used and their market size.

Virtual reality technology is widely applied in rehabilitation therapy and is termed virtual rehabilitation. VR is a computer-based intervention providing patients with a virtual interactive and applicable treatment setting for skills practice with real-time feedback. Virtual rehabilitation can be used both at home. Most virtual rehabilitation systems developed require motor training which includes complex and expensive hardware and can be used only under professional guidance, such as in hospitals, rehab centers, and clinical settings. Many low-cost rehabilitation gaming systems have been developed for patients with movement disorders. These systems are for home use and require remote supervision of a therapist. The home-use virtual rehabilitation systems promote physical rehabilitation at home and reduce frequent hospital visits, which have reduced healthcare costs.
