In 1738, Daniel Bernoulli wrote the big essay that introduced utility theory.
Third, it introduces utility theoretical analysis during the resource allocation process, so as to maximize the resource utilization.
Different from the existing works which either consider job utility or task utility individually, this paper considers both job utility and task utility simultaneously by introducing extra utility for every job.
Each individual, candidate solution, is evaluated against the fitness, utility, function introduced in "Utility function definition and Utility model development" sections.
The study results can perhaps also be used as a reference by countries interested in introducing the utility model for determining the term of utility models.
By introducing a utility function defined as a weighted sum of user download delay and the caching cost, the joint user association and content placement problem is formulated as a utility function optimization problem which is transformed equivalently into three convex subproblems by applying McCormick envelopes and Lagrange partial relaxation.
GM has to fill holes in product lines by introducing sport-utility and multi-purpose vehicles, says Nick Reilly, former chief executive of Vauxhall, GM's British subsidiary, and chief-executive-designate of GM-Daewoo now that he has sealed the deal.His management team can expect trouble from South Korea's aggressive unions along the way.
To be fair, so are most weapons, and many have been decried as such when first introduced, before utility and familiarity find them places in the arsenals of the powerful.
For each service type, we introduce a utility function depending on the average transmission rate in order not only to balance fairness and efficiency but also to achieve cross-layer optimization.
In addition, since the all-electric range of plug-in hybrids depends on the size of the battery pack, the analysis introduced a utility factor as a projection of the share of miles that will be driven using electricity by an average driver, for both, electric only and blended EV modes.
