Utility functions are used to map the resources (e.g., bandwidth, power,...), performance criteria (e.g., throughput, delay,...) and QoS requirements (e.g., maximum tolerable error rate, maximum absolute delay, maximum allowable outage delay probability,...) into the corresponding user's satisfaction.
The maximum tolerable hit rate to carry out normalizations was 20% or 77/384 wells.
This imposes strict constraints on the maximum tolerable error rates.
In particular, the maximum tolerable genomic mutation rate per replication [i.e., (1 - qmin) ν] becomes independent of ν, as is the case in [ 3, 14].
Furthermore, as shown by Fig. 1(B) (circles), the maximum tolerable genomic mutation rate [i.e., (1 - qmin) ν] increases as ν increases, which strengthen the last result [see also Fig. 1(C) in terms of f0/ f1].
The observed erosion rates are well below maximum tolerable annual soil loss rates for the Mediterranean region, as 90% of the catchments have mean annual erosion rates below 2 t ha− 1 y− 1.
The resource constraint for UE is the minimum data rate and maximum tolerable packet delay for MTC devices.
The total area that experienced soil erosion rate above the maximum tolerable erosion limit of 11 t ha−1 yeaRenardetald et al. 1996) is 5440 ha, which covers 21.25% of the entire watershed.
The M-LWDF scheduler was proposed by Andrews et al. [36] for single-carrier CDMA networks with a shared downlink channel and was proved to be throughput optimal.b It is based on a channel- and queue-aware scheduling rule that considers the waiting time in the queues, the instantaneous potential transmission rates and the maximum tolerable delay requirements.
The EXP scheduler, proposed by Shakkottai and Stolyar [38], is also based on a channel-and queue-aware throughput optimal scheduling rule that considers the waiting time in the queues, the instantaneous potential transmission rates and the maximum tolerable delay requirements.
