  2. Socially necessary labour time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socially_necessary_labour_time

    If the market for a commodity is undersupplied, then the labour-time expended on its production has been less than what is socially necessary, and exchange value rises. The simplest definition of socially necessary labour time is the amount of labour time performed by a worker of average skill and productivity, working with tools of the average ...

  3. Kendall's notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kendall's_notation

    A M/M/1 queue means that the time between arrivals is Markovian (M), i.e. the inter-arrival time follows an exponential distribution of parameter λ. The second M means that the service time is Markovian: it follows an exponential distribution of parameter μ. The last parameter is the number of service channel which one (1).

  4. Markovian arrival process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markovian_arrival_process

    In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, a Markovian arrival process (MAP or MArP [1]) is a mathematical model for the time between job arrivals to a system. The simplest such process is a Poisson process where the time between each arrival is exponentially distributed. [2] [3]

  5. Rational arrival process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_arrival_process

    In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, a rational arrival process (RAP) is a mathematical model for the time between job arrivals to a system. It extends the concept of a Markov arrival process , allowing for dependent matrix-exponential distributed inter-arrival times.

  6. Labor theory of value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labor_theory_of_value

    Since the term "value" is understood in the LTV as denoting something created by labor, and its "magnitude" as something proportional to the quantity of labor performed, it is important to explain how the labor process both preserves value and adds new value in the commodities it creates. [note 1]

  7. Sign value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_value

    In sociology and in economics, the term sign value denotes and describes the value accorded to an object because of the prestige (social status) that it imparts upon the possessor, rather than the material value and utility derived from the function and the primary use of the object.

  8. Unequal exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unequal_exchange

    Unequal exchange is used primarily in Marxist economics, but also in ecological economics (more specifically also as ecologically unequal exchange), to describe the systemic hidden transfer of labor and ecological value from poor countries in the imperial periphery (mainly in the Global South) to rich countries and monopolistic corporations in the imperial core (mainly in the Global North) due ...

  9. G/G/1 queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G/G/1_queue

    The system is described in Kendall's notation where the G denotes a general distribution for both interarrival times and service times and the 1 that the model has a single server. [3] [4] Different interarrival and service times are considered to be independent, and sometimes the model is denoted GI/GI/1 to emphasise this.
