Whenever TCTC observes severe contention, then it enters a fast probe phase.
For example, in [14], a mean-square estimator was proposed to estimate tag number; in [16], a Bayesian approach was developed to estimate the number of tags, and in [11], a maximum likelihood estimator was used to estimate the number of tags based on partially observed frame contention data.
As for the utilization factor of contention period,, it can be obtained by counting the total number of contention attempts observed in the contention period, divided by the total number of observed contention opportunities on which the measurement is taken in the contention period.
Since the absence of an immediate response in the following UL-MAP will be regarded as a failed contention, can be obtained by counting the total number of responses observed in the following UL-MAP, divided by the total number of observed contention attempts on which the measurement is taken in the contention period.
It is a sufficient answer to this contention to observe that (upon the facts as heretofore found) McMenamy expended the money in good faith and in the course of attempted performance.
No effect of BA on the steroidogenic function of isolated Leydig cells was observed, supporting the contention of a CNS-mediated rather than a direct hormone effect.
A significant correlation between increases in swallowing safety (reduced cumulative penetration-aspiration scores) and increases in unaffected hemisphere excitability was observed, supporting the contention that functional behavioral changes in swallow are mostly driven by improvements in the undamaged circuitry.
The authors observe that there is currently contention as to whether social capital should be conceptualised as social cohesion or as resources imbedded in social networks.
In MANETs, as observed in [9], contention-free MAC schemes such as code division multiple access or time division multiple access are complex to implement due to the dynamically changing network topology and the lack of centralized control.
Four hops are chosen because there is higher contention near the sink, which provides a good opportunity to observe the behavior of duty cycle assignment.
It will be observed, therefore, that the contention of plaintiff is without foundation, and that the ordinance is not an arbitrary and unreasonable deprivation of property in a wholesome food, but a regulation having the purpose of and found to be necessary for the protection of the public health.
