Experiments with stocking densities indicate that the full diameter of the animal, including spines, must be considered when stocking with no more than 80% total area coverage (Alabi 2001).

It was during this time that Motorola developed a prototype, the DynaTAC (DYNamic Adaptive Total Area Coverage) portable phone.
