The half-saturation, γ k, is the resource abundance at which fitness from resource k is half of its maximal value: (1) F i = 1 1 + D i ∑ k c ik r k (r k + γ k ).
The value of R∗plotted in Figure 2A shows the resource concentration at which the fastest-growing (highest δ) bacterial strain would become resource-limited in the absence of phage (calculated using the method given in Appendix Appendix B: Steady-state analysis).
Moreover, through their patch departure behaviour, by selecting the resource level at which they departed from the patch, individuals managed to substantially increase their net energy intake rates.
Based on the ECU metric, thresholds margins can be defined for identifying the resource utilisation levels, at which SLA violations are approached and the reallocation of the CPU resources can be initiated to protect SLA contracts.
This resource planning exercise being HSSS-based and normative in nature, allows for a common resource base standard at which to aim across districts, so that bridging the financing gap becomes easier and more equitable.
The idea was pretty straightforward: given a needed resource with a finite stock, production will tend to increase with rising demand until the resource becomes depleted, at which point production will decline even though demand continues to increase.
Prime among the uncertainties are the size of the recoverable resource, the rate at which production can be achieved, and the extent to which the concerns of local residents and environmental groups can be accommodated.
An everyday example is asking for driving directions, during which one needs the problem state resource to store at which street one should turn to arrive at the destination.
Various yards, warehouses, distribution centers and other storage nodes are typical resource-intensive sites at which catastrophes and disasters, such as fires and chemical leakage, are prone to occur and spread.
