By this procedure rinsing progresses in two stages, first by dilution until the time when the drains are separated and thereafter by displacement of the soil-bearing liquor by clean rinse water, since soiled liquor squeezed from the specimens at the nip passes directly to waste from the suds box drains.

The essential characteristic of an optimal policy when the state of the stream is transformed in a sequence of stages with no feedback was first isolated by Bellman.

He recognized that whatever transformation may be effected in the first stage of an R-stage process, the remaining stages must use an optimal Af-stage policy with respect to the state resulting from the first stage, if there is to be any chance of optimizing the complete process.

Moreover, by systematically varying the operating conditions in the first stage and always using the optimal Af-stage policy for the remaining stages, we shall eventually find the optimal policy for all R stages.

If we consider a process in which the outcome of one stage is known before passage to the next, then the principle of optimality shows that the policy in subsequent stages should be optimal with respect to the outcome of the first.

In England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Australia, arraignment is the first of eleven stages in a criminal trial, and involves the clerk of the court reading out the indictment.

* 1936 – The United Auto Workers union stages its first sit-down strike.

In some cases, as in the first series, the DigiDestined ( known as the ' Chosen Children ' in the original Japanese ) had to find some special items such as crests and tags so the Digimon could digivolve into further stages of evolution known as Ultimate and Mega in the dub.

The existence of the electroweak interactions was experimentally established in two stages, the first being the discovery of neutral currents in neutrino scattering by the Gargamelle collaboration in 1973, and the second in 1983 by the UA1 and the UA2 collaborations that involved the discovery of the W and Z gauge bosons in proton – antiproton collisions at the converted Super Proton Synchrotron.

The Fermis moved to Chicago in stages that year, and Enrico began studies that led to the construction of the first nuclear pile Chicago Pile-1.

There are several editing stages and the editor's cut is the first.

Washington quickly became a senior officer in the colonial forces during the first stages of the French and Indian War.

The evangelist divides history into three stages: the first ends with John the Baptist, the second consists of Jesus ' earthly ministry, and the third is the life of the church after Jesus ' resurrection.

In the 1740s, Pierre-Louis Moreau de Maupertuis made the first known suggestion in a series of essays that all organisms may have had a common ancestor, and that they had diverged through random variation and natural selection.

As mentioned above, the first n bits of Gregory Chaitin's constant Omega are random or incompressible in the sense that we cannot compute them by a halting algorithm with fewer than n-O ( 1 ) bits.

In other words, the enumerable first n bits of Omega are highly compressible in the sense that they are limit-computable by a very short algorithm ; they are not random with respect to the set of enumerating algorithms.

Using cathode ray tubes, Fred Williams would invent the Williams tube, which would be the first random access computer memory.

In probability theory, the expected value ( or expectation, or mathematical expectation, or mean, or the first moment ) of a random variable is the weighted average of all possible values that this random variable can take on.

Meiosis generates genetic diversity in two ways: ( 1 ) independent alignment and subsequent separation of homologous chromosome pairs during the first meiotic division allows a random and independent selection of each chromosome segregates into each gamete ; and ( 2 ) physical exchange of homologous chromosomal regions by homologous recombination during prophase I results in new combinations of DNA within chromosomes.

The first attempt to provide researchers with a ready supply of random digits was in 1927, when the Cambridge University Press published a table of 41, 600 digits developed by Leonard H. C. Tippet.

Puzzle and Experience points only show the development of the player and his progress in the game, though in the first game also affected the kind of random encounters a player faces, as some monsters only appear after a certain level of experience is reached.

The data to be concealed are first encrypted before being used to overwrite part of a much larger block of encrypted data or a block of random data ( an unbreakable cipher like the one-time pad generates ciphertexts that look perfectly random if one does not have the private key ).

While the first one may be seen as the variance of the sample considered as a population, the second one is the unbiased estimator of the population variance, meaning that its expected value E is equal to the true variance of the sampled random variable ; the use of the term n − 1 is called Bessel's correction.

Also, card driven games ( CDGs ), first introduced in 1993, use a deck of ( custom ) cards to drive most elements of the game, such as unit movement ( activation ) and random events.

A similar technique was sometimes used to get the first call for prizes in radio " call-in " shows, thus leading to the adoption of random " fifth caller ," " seventeenth caller " etc.

* October – The UNIVAC 1103 is the first commercial computer to use random access memory.

Picking a random x position Uniform distribution ( continuous ) | uniformly on this number line, roughly 30 % of the time the first digit of the number will be 1.

* In February 2012, a research team at the University of New South Wales announced the development of the first working transistor consisting of a single atom placed precisely in a silicon crystal ( not just picked from a large sample of random transistors ).

At first sight, it will appear that the disturbance in the pool is totally random, but on a closer look, it will be seen that a repeating pattern occurs over one cycle of the vibrating frequency.

The first theorem is shown similarly ; one can divide the random string into nonoverlapping blocks matching the size of the desired text, and make E < sub > k </ sub > the event where the kth block equals the desired string.

Ignoring punctuation, spacing, and capitalization, a monkey typing letters uniformly at random has a chance of one in 26 of correctly typing the first letter of Hamlet.

In 1919 Richard von Mises gave the first definition of algorithmic randomness, which was inspired by the law of large numbers, although he used the term collective rather than random sequence.

He supposes that a billiard ball is thrown at random onto a billiard table, and that the probabilities p and q are the probabilities that subsequent billiard balls will fall above or below the first ball.

The first publicly known public-key agreement protocol that meets the above criteria was the Diffie-Hellman exponential key exchange, in which two parties jointly exponentiate a generator with random numbers, in such a way that an eavesdropper has no way of guessing what the key is.

The painting has many similarities to Trenchard's version ( or vice versa depending on which came first ), including the random placement of stars and details of the eagle.

In client-to-client connections, the parties negotiate a random number to see who should be allowed to download first.
