To prevent an inflation of the significance level, a group sequential design was chosen, where the O'Brien and Fleming α-spending function defines the allocation of the one-sided overall significance level of 2.5% to the IA and final analysis, and based on, respectively 190, 411 and 631 numbers of patients with 4P-MACE, the cumulative alpha spent is 0.000043997, 0.005469768 and 0.025.
The strategic and tactical decisions pertaining to the availability of ORs during the week, the OR opening hours, and the cyclic timetable, which defines the allocation of the OR blocks to the subspecialties, are known in advance and used in our analysis as input data.
With this goal, we defined the allocation of an input towards an output (with the abbreviation AIO) to be the proportion of a matter component (such as carbon) in a given input flux that is recovered in the selected output flux.
Define the allocation ratio as r = n1/ n1/
COC State: The state (mathcal {S}_{3}) is defined based on the result of the scheduling scheme, which defines (1) the allocation of users to RBs and (2) UE measurements (e.g., RSRP, RSRQ, etc).
State: The state is defined based on the result of the scheduling scheme, which defines: (1) the allocation of users to RBs (RB1,RB2,…,RB R ) to the N users, (2) the values of CQI of each user in the corresponding RB.
State: The state (mathcal {S}_{1}) is defined based on the result of the scheduling scheme, which defines (1) the allocation of users to RBs, (2) the values of CQI of each user in the corresponding RB, and (3) UE measurements (e.g., RSRP, RSRQ, etc).
CCO State: The state (mathcal {S}_{1}) is defined based on the result of the scheduling scheme, which defines (1) the allocation of users to RBs, (2) the values of CQI of each user in the corresponding RB, and (3) UE measurements (e.g., RSRP, RSRQ, etc).
State: The state is defined based on the result of the scheduling scheme, which defines: (1) the allocation of users to RBs (RB1,RB2,…,RB R ) to the N users and (2) the values of SINR measured for each user in the corresponding RB.
ICIC State: The state (mathcal {S}_{2}) is defined based on the result of the scheduling scheme, which defines (1) the allocation of users to RBs, (2) the values of SINR of each user in the corresponding RB, and (3) UE measurements (e.g., RSRP, RSRQ, etc).
