This method is used in, for example graded multiple banks of selectors. [ 1 ] In a modern circuit-switched network, switches can connect any inlet to any outlet; this is known as full availability.
"The best example is perhaps Walras' definition of social wealth, i.e., economic goods. [3] 'By social wealth', says Walras, 'I mean all things, material or immaterial (it does not matter which in this context), that are scarce, that is to say, on the one hand, useful to us and, on the other hand, only available to us in limited quantity'."

It usually refers to a very high-end and desirable product.
Availability of parallel components = 1 - (1 - X)^ N [3] Using parallel components can exponentially increase the availability of overall system. [2] For example if each of your hosts has only 50% availability, by using 10 of hosts in parallel, you can achieve 99.9023% availability. [3] Note that redundancy doesn’t always lead to higher ...
Resource slack, in the business and management literature, is the level of availability of a resource. Resource slack can be considered as the opposite of resource scarcity or resource constraints. The availability of resources can therefore be defined in terms of resource slack versus constraints, as two ends of a continuum. [1]
Costco's measures are meant to cushion the effects, but an extended strike will likely lead to increased costs and limited availability of some items, particularly non-essential holiday goods.
Resource competition can vary from completely symmetric (all individuals receive the same amount of resources, irrespective of their size, known also as scramble competition) to perfectly size symmetric (all individuals exploit the same amount of resource per unit biomass) to absolutely size asymmetric (the largest individuals exploit all the available resource).
