  2. Ceiling (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceiling_(aeronautics)

    The absolute ceiling and service ceiling diagram of an aircraft. With respect to aircraft performance, a ceiling is the maximum density altitude an aircraft can reach under a set of conditions, as determined by its flight envelope.

  3. Floor and ceiling functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions

    In mathematics, the floor function is the function that takes as input a real number x, and gives as output the greatest integer less than or equal to x, denoted ⌊x⌋ or floor(x). Similarly, the ceiling function maps x to the least integer greater than or equal to x, denoted ⌈x⌉ or ceil(x). [1]

  4. Rate of climb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_climb

    V x increases with altitude and V Y decreases with altitude until they converge at the airplane's absolute ceiling, the altitude above which the airplane cannot climb in steady flight. The Cessna 172 is a four-seat aircraft. At maximum weight it has a V Y of 75 kn (139 km/h) indicated airspeed [4] providing a rate of climb of 721 ft/min (3.66 m/s).

  5. Stack resource policy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_Resource_Policy

    The system ceiling, at any instant in time, is the maximum active priority of all the tasks that are currently executing within the system. A task is only allowed to preempt the system when its absolute deadline is less than the currently executing task and its preemption level is higher than the current system ceiling.

  6. Integer-valued function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer-valued_function

    In mathematics, an integer-valued function is a function whose values are integers.In other words, it is a function that assigns an integer to each member of its domain.. The floor and ceiling functions are examples of integer-valued functions of a real variable, but on real numbers and, generally, on (non-disconnected) topological spaces integer-valued functions are not especially useful.
