Process synchronization by counter variables

ACM SIGOPS Operating Systems Review, 1977
A new method for expressing synchronization is presented which derives from several concepts in existing notational schemes. Synchronization conditions are expressed in terms of (integer) counters which are incorporated into the definitions of data objects shared by several asynchronous processes.

Variability sensitive Markov decision processes

Proceedings of the 28th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, 1992
Considered are time-average Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) with finite state and action spaces. Two definitions of variability are introduced, namely, the expected time-average variability and time-average expected variability. The two criteria are in general different, although they can both be employed to penalize for variance in the stream of ...

Process Control in terms of Process Variables

Journal of the Society of Dyers and Colourists, 1979
This paper is restricted to the control of process variables in batch dyeing. Most of the work carried out in this field, is concerned with complex, sophisticated pressure dyeing machines for colouring packages, fabric beams or fabric rope. Before considering this equipment, it is desirable to examine the types of instruments used in many non‐automatic

Business Process Lines to Deal with the Variability

2010 43rd Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 2010
Variability proved to be a central concept in different domains, manufacturing, software development etc. in order to develop solutions that can be easily adapted to different organizational settings and different sets of customers at a low price. We argue that families of business process models can facilitate the installation of situated models in ...

Comparing the Variability of Random Variables and Point Processes

Probability in the Engineering and Informational Sciences, 1998
In this paper we compare the variance of functions of random variables and functionals of point processes. Specifically we give sufficient conditions on two random variables X and Y under which the variances var f(X) and var f(Y) of the function f of these random variables can be compared.

Educational Process Variability

2023
The relevance of the problem of high-school student academic mobility development is due to changes in modern education, caused by the processes of globalization, computerization, and digitalization. The purpose of the study was in theoretical justification and the pilot test effectiveness of the influence of professional teachers' competence on ...

Processing Time Variability

2008
In the previous chapter, an approximation for the cycle time in a system queue was developed (or waiting time in the queue for a machine). The relationship consists of four parameters.

Random Variables and Processes

2002
Randomness is usually introduced in a context which is in the experience of virtually everyone: measurement errors. In this context, one is usually introduced to Gaussian error formulas with little explanation of the rationale for the process.
