In the style of the Occupy movement, it operated with a requirement of consensus.
Gary Schmitt, the project's director, observes that NATO might be a better instrument for American policy than the Security Council, as long as the organization abandons the requirement of consensus in favor of a "supermajority," thus preventing France and Germany from frustrating American designs.
Based on the consensus region theory in the research of multi-agent system consensus issues, the coupling gain can be obtained to satisfy the requirement of consensus region and decouple the satellite cluster information topology and the feedback control gain matrix, which can be determined by Linear quadratic regulator (LQR) optimal method.
Several diplomats and human rights groups that have lobbied hard in favor of the treaty complained that the requirement of consensus for the pact to pass was something that the United States insisted on years ago.
One hundred and seventeen cases could not be categorized owing to the absolute requirement of consensus among the 3 pathologists.
In 1998 the NHS Health Technology Assessment group produced a detailed report on the requirements of effective consensus development methods [ 1] yet could not identify an appropriate statistical measure for reporting a move towards consensus, identified by central tendency in Delphi.
According to a previous report about the DNA sequence requirements of the consensus Rox1p-binding site Y1Y2Y3A4T5T6G7T8T9C10T11C12 [53], the sequence T5T6G7T8 is absolutely required for the affinity of Rox1p binding; A4 can be relatively tolerated to substitution by T, T9 by C or A and Y3 by A; A4 and T9 can not be permitted to change at the same time.
Based on these, a suboptimal method of resource allocation to reduce such effect of quantization error is proposed, and a dynamic quantizer is designed to meet the requirement of the consensus level, under the constraints that the total quantization rate of overall system is limited.
Nonetheless, this approach is not optimal in measuring the confidence of N-linked glycopeptide matches, because the glycopeptide data set is considerably smaller compared to that of peptides, and the requirement of a consensus sequence for N-glycosylation further limits the number of possible decoy glycopeptides tested in a database search.
