With this regard, the supply and demand of nodes may be presented linguistically; the travel cost and capacity of links can be defined under uncertainty as well.
The CF for the domain consisting of n links can be defined as [4].
Although semantic links can be defined in other ways (e.g., superordinate categories and their members), the use of exemplars is advantageous for the study of semantic effects, because exemplars share lexical representations (names), functional properties, and features.
A line can be defined similarly.
With d 1 and d 2 representing the lengths of Link 1 and Link 2, respectively, and with the geometrical gain [9] of Link 1, G 1, being normalized to 1, the geometric gain of Link 2, relative to Link 1, can be defined as G 2 = d 1 d 2 α, (1).
In addition, concepts such as pagerank, authorities and hubs, determined by exploiting the structural relationships between linked documents, can be defined with respect to the semantic relationships between terms.
Moreover, the definition of semantic similarity presupposes a hierarchy structure, whereas linked processes can be defined for any set of annotation terms (e.g. KEGG).
Cost and quality are inextricably linked, and can be defined in an optimal relation.
A schedule allocates a certain number of timeslots to each link rate vector, so that the long-term achievable link rate region can be defined as C = conv V = c = ∑ k ∈ [ 1, K ] v k ∈ V α k v k α k ≥ 0, ∑ k α k = 1, k ∈ [ 1, K ] (4).
The impact of inter-flow interference on link capacity can be conveniently integrated with the intra-flow interference by substituting b i and b j in Equation 15 with the equivalent bandwidth calculated from Equation 12; the equivalent bandwidth of the virtual link under various interference can be defined as B ij = B Inter, i × B Inter, j B Inter, i + B Inter, j (16).
