This arrangement gives excellent efficiency, but can suffer from the drawback that there is a small mismatch in the cross-over region at the " joins " between the two halves of the signal, as one output device has to take over supplying power exactly as the other finishes.

Turing completeness in SQL is implemented through advanced standard features, illustrating one reason relatively powerful non-Turing-complete languages are rare: the more powerful the language is initially, the more complex are the tasks to which it is applied and the sooner its lack of completeness becomes perceived as a drawback, encouraging its extension until it is Turing complete.

The principal drawback of the one way time transfer system is that propagation delays of the communication channel remain uncompensated except in some advanced systems.

* a reasonable debugger ( its only significant drawback was that one could not examine the contents of fields in structures )

Being plugged into the wall is obviously a major drawback, but had one advantage: the timebase for the clock was driven off of a rectified version of 60 cycle AC current.

Nineteenth-century inventors were reluctant to accept this added complication and experimented with a variety of caseless or self-consuming cartridges before finally accepting that the advantages of brass cases far outweighed this one drawback.

One potential drawback of multi-master design was the possible collisions when more than one card would try to bus master, but MCA included an arbitration feature to correct for these situations, and also allowed a master to use a burst-mode.

The drawback of Richmond's geographical location, was that since all the land averages just one metre above sea level, it was prone to flooding, especially during high tide.

One drawback was that, unlike Ethernet, one machine failure ( which could easily happen given a single faulty connector ) stopped the entire network.

The drawback is that since only one node's worth of text is shown at one time and navigation has the additional step of crossing panes, the structure is more rigid, making editing across nodes more difficult.

Another drawback of the least squares estimator is the fact that the norm of the residuals, is minimized, whereas in some cases one is truly interested in obtaining small error in the parameter, e. g., a small value of.

The main drawback of the evaluation systems existing so far is that we need at least one reference summary, and for some methods more than one, to be able to compare automatic summaries with models.

The Noether theorem derivation of the conservation of the LRL vector A is elegant, but has one drawback: the coordinate variation δx < sub > i </ sub > involves not only the position r, but also the momentum p or, equivalently, the velocity v.
