Implementations of the fork–join model will typically fork tasks, fibers or lightweight threads, not operating-system-level "heavyweight" threads or processes, and use a thread pool to execute these tasks: the fork primitive allows the programmer to specify potential parallelism, which the implementation then maps onto actual parallel execution.

For every >, their algorithm finds a solution with size at most (+) + and runs in time ( (/)) + (), where () denotes a function only dependent on /. For this algorithm, they invented the method of adaptive input rounding : the input numbers are grouped and rounded up to the value of the maximum in each group.
If one could solve it, one could also solve the decision problem, by comparing the size of the maximum clique to the size parameter given as input in the decision problem. Karp's NP-completeness proof is a many-one reduction from the Boolean satisfiability problem .
The first detail to note is that the way the priority queue handles ties can have a significant effect on performance in some situations. If ties are broken so the queue behaves in a LIFO manner, A* will behave like depth-first search among equal cost paths (avoiding exploring more than one equally optimal solution).
Dijkstra's solution negates resource holding; the philosophers atomically pick up both forks or wait, never holding exactly one fork outside of a critical section. To accomplish this, Dijkstra's solution uses one mutex, one semaphore per philosopher and one state variable per philosopher. This solution is more complex than the resource ...
The system of six joint axes S i and five common normal lines A i,i+1 form the kinematic skeleton of the typical six degree-of-freedom serial robot. Denavit and Hartenberg introduced the convention that z-coordinate axes are assigned to the joint axes S i and x-coordinate axes are assigned to the common normals A i,i+1.
Example of a Dynamic Bayesian network. The first step concerns only Bayesian networks, and is a procedure to turn a directed graph into an undirected one. We do this because it allows for the universal applicability of the algorithm, regardless of direction. The second step is setting variables to their observed value.
Let us now apply Euler's method again with a different step size to generate a second approximation to y(t n+1). We get a second solution, which we label with a (). Take the new step size to be one half of the original step size, and apply two steps of Euler's method. This second solution is presumably more accurate.
