Similarly, for decreasePriority, the number should be decremented by one.
For every cycle of clockwise rotation, the counter variable, sensor_index, was incremented by one and for every cycle of counter-clockwise rotation, the sensor_index variable was decremented by one.
As the packet passes through a node, its value is decremented by one.
At every tick of wall-clock time, event-tick is decremented by one unit until it reaches zero.
Here (5a) accounts for the probability that the node remains in zone 1 after its back-off counter gets decremented by one.
For a tagged vehicle in broadcast communication, the transition for backoff counter decremented by one can be expressed by the following PGF: (9).
Otherwise, a positive CTRp is received by the device with the granted channel time resources (g i ) and its Flag metric is decremented by one.
In this operation, each ( {m}_{ell, e}^{j_t} ) is decremented by one if the demand constraints are not violated, ( sum limits_{ell =1}^Lsum limits_{e=1}^{d_{ell }}sum limits_{t=1}^Tsum limits_{j_tin {J}_t}left( {x}_{n,r}^{j_t}right){m}_{ell, e}^{j_t}<{v}_n^r ).
Conversely, when a factor was chosen as "least important", its count was decremented by one.
The use of the Gray code guarantees that an increment or decrement by one unit can always be achieved by the change of a single bit (a single "mutation"), while allowing other bits to have larger effects.
In such case, every intermediate hop would check the corresponding values, decrementing by 1 when necessary.
