The variation of the work function can be understood from the change of the Fermi level.
The importance of the molecular structure in determining the biological function can be understood when the properties of the chlorophylls are compared with those of bacteriochlorophylls, found in un-oxygenic photosynthetic prokaryotes.
So the subject of music, harmony, is, as it were, proportion realized in a certain matter, just as the actual material constitution of a natural object is the realization of some higher form, say that of an animal, the nature of whose functioning can be understood quite independently of the realization of it in that particular matter.
Domains are the building blocks of all globular proteins and present one of the most useful levels at which protein function can be understood [3].
Additionally, some features of protein function can be understood only when dynamic properties are taken into account.
Genomic function can be understood at the nucleotide level, but, the complexity and diversity of genomic function, leading to an emergent picture of the genome as an interacting system with many degrees of freedom, bring experimental and theoretical challenges to the quantitative measurement of the biological state, many of which are of statistical nature.
A single word can convey different speech act functions ("Water!" can be understood as Naming the liquid in the glass, as Warning somebody about the puddle on the floor, Requesting a glass of water, Answering the question "What is the chemical compound with the formula H2O?", etc., see Dore 1975; Wittgenstein 1953).
Value of this Lyaponov function generally can be understood as an index to represent the queue lengths.
We define a reward function which can be understood as a maximum of the sum of the throughput at the current time slot and the expected cumulative throughput at the future time slot from the current system state.
