Accurate demand forecasting also allows the desired inventory proportions to be dynamic by determining expected sales out into the future ; this allows for inventory to be in proportion to expected short-term sales or consumption rather than to past averages, a much more accurate and optimal outcome.

The race is begun from a standing start which allows three factors to affect the outcome of the race: reaction time, torque, and traction.

Individual verifiability allows a voter can check that her own vote is included in the election outcome, universal verifiability allows voters or election observers to check that the election outcome corresponds to the votes cast, and eligibility verifiability allows voters and observers to check that each vote in the election outcome was cast by a uniquely registered voter.

This allows smaller parties to have a greater impact on the outcome of elections, thus guaranteeing a multi-party system, as opposed to a two-party system.

He gave it 9 / 10 overall, but complained that some of the maps were printed on both sides of the same sheet, making them useless as a Dungeon Master's shield ( a visual barrier that allows dice rolls and other activities to be conducted without the players knowing the outcome ).

In algorithm design, nondeterministic algorithms are often used when the problem solved by the algorithm inherently allows multiple outcomes ( or when there is a single outcome with multiple paths by which the outcome may be discovered, each equally preferable ).

Its outcome is his invulnerability for the next 100 days, illustrated when he allows one of Balthazar's minions to slice his head in two so it can mend itself.

The post-operative outcome of vaginoplasty is variable ; it usually allows coitus ( sexual intercourse ) after a week, although sensation might not always be present.

The skillful management of resources under such rules allows players to influence the outcome of the game.

They may thus employ any of several tactics to avoid that outcome, such as deliberately kicking the ball out of bounds or far away from any opponent, or running a non-punting play from scrimmage that allows the game clock to expire safely.

Aim is always a software which allows the user to represent his knowledge as parameters of an algorithm without knowing the details of the implementation, and to interpret the outcome of the algorithm without the aid of the developer.

Strictly speaking, this means that the probability for each possible outcome of the experiment can be computed by multiplying together the probabilities of the possible outcomes of the single binomial trials.

Then, too, the utmost clinical flexibility is necessary in judiciously combining carefully timed family-oriented home visits, single and group office interviews, and appropriate telephone follow-up calls, if the worker is to be genuinely accessible and if the predicted unhealthy outcome is to be actually averted in accordance with the principles of preventive intervention.

He heard the Philistine giant Goliath challenge the Israelites to send their own champion to decide the outcome in single combat.

In probability theory, an elementary event ( also called an atomic event or simple event ) is an event which contains only a single outcome in the sample space.

If we assemble a deck of 52 playing cards with no jokers, and draw a single card from the deck, then the sample space is a 52-element set, as each card is a possible outcome.

More importantly, the movie depicts one of the battle's most decisive elements, the arrival of the Prussian army, rather superficially as they arrive to win the battle in short order: distant columns of Prussians are observed by the general staff of both armies, arriving on the battlefield at the very end of the day to change the outcome with a single blow.

Some systems are even more likely to lead to a two-party outcome: for example, elections in Gibraltar use a partial block vote system in a single constituency, so the third most popular party is unlikely to win any seats.

An outcome is the result of a single execution of the model.

Once the probability space is established, it is assumed that “ nature ” makes its move and selects a single outcome, ω, from the sample space Ω.

An outcome is the result of a single execution of the model.

Since the same outcome may be a member of many events, it is possible for many events to have happened given a single outcome.

Twice a day for 40 days, Goliath, the champion of the Philistines, comes out between the lines and challenges the Israelites to send out a champion of their own to decide the outcome in single combat, but Saul and all the Israelites are afraid.

A random function is a type of random element in which a single outcome is selected from some family of functions, where the family consists some class of all maps from the domain to the codomain.

According to ordinary quantum theory, it is not possible to measure the spin or polarization of a particle directly ; instead, the component in one direction is measured ; the outcome from a single particle may be 1, meaning that the particle is aligned with the measuring apparatus, or-1, meaning that it is aligned the opposite way.

# can usually be formulated mathematically as one or several statements or equation, or at least stated in a single sentence, so that it can be used to predict the outcome of an experiment, given the initial, boundary, and other physical conditions of the processes which take place,

The point of climax is the turning point of the story, where the main character makes the single big decision that defines the outcome of their story and who they are as a person.

To avoid further bloodshed, it is agreed that the outcome of the battle should be decided by single combat between Gwydion and Pryderi.

To avoid further bloodshed, it is agreed that the outcome of the battle should be decided by single combat between Gwydion and Pryderi.

To avoid further bloodshed, it is agreed that the outcome of the battle should be decided by single combat between Gwydion and Pryderi.

Because the location of a single scattering center is not usually well known relative to the path of the radiation, the outcome, which tends to depend strongly on the exact incoming trajectory, appears random to an observer.

The paintings show the story of a single battle and its victorious outcome.

The outcome of this thinking was obvious from the start ; in 1971 the Air Force started a " requirements development " combining the ICBM-X and SABRE concepts into a single platform, " Missile, Experimental ", or MX.

Media convergence is essentially a process and not an outcome, so no single black box controls the flow of media.

The probabilities describing the possible outcome of a single trial are modelled, as a function of explanatory variables, using a logistic function.

These variables -- which include wax resist, glazes, temperature, and timing -- ultimately determine the outcome when firing a piece of clay.

The terms are used in other contexts ; for example the worst-and best-case outcome of a planned-for epidemic, worst-case temperature to which an electronic circuit element is exposed, etc.

The temperature achieved during the reaction determines the outcome.

The term prognostic is given to some values or variables that are directly predictive by the model, such as temperature, water vapour, salinity, depth in atmospheric or ocean models ; variables that can be directly obtained as a model outcome.

The outcome can be a growing roughening and creation of protrusions ( i. e., lumps ) above the original surface, in industrial manufacturing referred to as galling, which eventually breaches the oxidized surface layer and connects to the underlying bulk material which enhance the possibility for a stronger adhesion and plastic flow around the lump. The geometry and the nominal sliding velocity of the lump defines how the flowing material will be transported and accelerated around the lump which is critical to define contact pressure and developed temperature during sliding.

* in the case of the fire piston and the heat pump, the desired outcome is the temperature rise of the gas, and compressing the gas is only a means to that end.

For example, heating up the temperature in a room is a process that has the specific, desired outcome to reach and maintain a defined temperature ( e. g. 20 ° C ), kept constant over time.

The outcome of all snakebites depends on a multitude of factors: the size, physical condition, and temperature of the snake, the age and physical condition of the victim, the area and tissue bitten ( e. g., foot, torso, vein or muscle ), the amount of venom injected, the time it takes for the person to find treatment, and finally the quality of that treatment.

The baked good's outcome texture can vary greatly based on external factors such as temperature.
