Our modified first-fit-decreasing-earliest (MFFDE) algorithm schedules jobs in the nonincreasing order of their process times and considers the earlier start-time first (STF) if two jobs have the same process times or breaks ties arbitrarily when two jobs have exactly the same start-times, ...
elements not included (14 = 4 + 4 + 6). Therefore, the subsequence [7,6,7] is the minimal satisfying the conditions. Note the subsequence has to returned in non-decreasing order. Example 3: Input: nums = [6] Output: [6] Constraints: 1 <= nums.length <= 500 1 <= nums[i] <=...
We consider a supplier selling a product with a relatively short life cycle and following a non-increasing price curve. Because of the short cycle, there is a single procurement opportunity at the beginning of the cycle. The objective of the supplier is to determine the initial order quantity ...
increasing\({n}_{x}\)concurrently reduces the density of stress supporting strands and increases strand flexibility leading to enhanced softness at the expense of decreased firmness. This effect is clearly observed in Fig.3aas decreasing the NCO:OH ratio (1:1→1:8) respectively results in lower...
, specified as a vector. At a minimum,tspanmust be a two-element vector[t0 tf]specifying the initial and final times. To obtain solutions at specific times betweent0andtf, use a longer vector of the form[t0,t1,t2,...,tf]. The elements intspanmust be all increasing or all decreasing...
If the TTO value is < 0, the task will continue to LT-TTO, where the 11 values will be presented in decreasing order; if the TTO value is estimated to be 0.95, the task will end with one additional question requesting the respondent to state preference for a 9.5-year Life A and a ...
where the bin-specific coefficientsαPandβPare expressed in function of the macroscopic group constraints (i.e., number density, energy, etc.). The total population and energies of the different bins are the set of unknowns for the reduced-order system. The governing equations for these macro...

Fish Hg concentrations were relatively low, but comparable to those reported in other investigations that illustrate a decreasing south-to-north trend in fish Hg concentrations. In the current study, northern pike is the only species for which Hg bioaccumulated significantly. In all fish species, ...
