At low-to-moderate contention for resources (e.g., λ ≤ 0.0175 jobs per sec), RM-DCWF and MRCP-RM achieve comparable performance in terms of P. When the contention for resources is moderately high (e.g., average resource utilization is approximately 0.8), for a λ of 0.02 jobs per sec, for example, MRCP-RM outperforms RM-DCWF.
Experimental results conducted with a prototype implementation and the STAMP benchmark show good scalability for applications with moderate to low contention levels, and whose transactions are not too small.
However, when λ is between 0.01875 to 0.0225 jobs per sec, generating a moderate-to-high contention for resources (e.g., average resource utilization is approximately between 0.7 and 0.85), MRCP-RM is observed to achieve up to a 22% lower P (on average 11% lower) compared to that achieved by RM-DCWF.
Biggest flaw: The author's contention that moderate Republicanism represents a coherent ideology rather than an approach to politics is not completely convincing.
My contention is not that moderate chemical controls should never be used under any circumstances but, rather, that we must reduce their use to a minimum and must as rapidly as possible develop and strengthen biological controls.
From the perspective of the precision of the degree of contention, less g and moderate WS are welcomed.
Meanwhile, most of the more socially moderate Republican women were driven out of contention during primaries (again, because of a Tea Party insurgency largely motivated by economic, not necessarily social, conservatism).
Representative Marge Roukema, a New Jersey moderate who sometimes bucks the leadership and the only woman in contention for a committee chairmanship, has the seniority but is opposed by Representative Richard H. Baker of Louisiana, who is more conservative.
The last two of these strategies were not in contention, since they must be underpinned by moral principles of moderate and high degrees of utilitarianism respectively.
Radicals have chosen the path of violence -- hence, terrorism -- while moderates, including most governments in the Muslim World, would prefer to pursue political contention peacefully.
Kiely's first book, Counties of Contention: a Study of the Origins and Implications of the Partition of Ireland (1945), reflected the moderate nationalism that he adhered to all his life.
