The DRR scans all non-empty queues in sequence. When a non-empty queue is selected, its deficit counter is incremented by its quantum value. Then, the value of the deficit counter is a maximal number of bytes that can be sent at this turn: if the deficit counter is greater than the packet's size at the head of the queue (HoQ), this packet can be sent, and the value of the counter is ...
You don’t have to have diabetes to be deficient in any of these nutrients. All three—vitamin D, vitamin B12 and magnesium—are commonly deficient in the general population as well.
Income deficit is the difference between a single person or family's income and its poverty threshold or poverty line, when the former is exceeded by the latter.
