  Incremental reading is a method for learning and retaining information from reading that might otherwise be forgotten. It is particularly targeted to people who are trying to learn a large amount of information at once, particularly if that information is varied.Incremental reading works by...

  Incremental sheet forming
  Incremental sheet forming is a sheet metal forming technique where a sheet is formed into the final workpiece by a series of small incremental deformations. Generally, the sheet metal is formed by a round tipped tool, typically 5 to 20mm in diameter...

  Incremental backup
  An incremental backup preserves data by not creating multiple copies that are based on the differences in those data: a successive copy of the data contains only that portion which has changed since the preceding copy has been created.-Incremental:...

• Incremental capital-output ratio
  Incremental capital-output ratio
  The Incremental Capital-Output Ratio , is the ratio of investment to growth which is equal to 1 divided by the marginal product of capital. The higher the ICOR, the lower the productivity of capital. The ICOR can be thought of as a measure of the inefficiency with which capital is used. In most...
