Burst Round Robin as a Proportional-Share Scheduling Algorithm by Helmy, Tarek

“…The advantage we gain is that processes that are close to their completion will get more chances to complete and leave the ready queue. This will reduce the number of processes in the ready queue by knocking out short jobs relatively faster in a hope to increase the throughput and reduce the average waiting time.…”

Optimizing dynamics of water-energy-food nexus in a desert climate by Sa'd Shannak (17191363)

“…For example, as an extreme case, if the agriculture electricity price is raised from $0.048 per kWh to the US industrial electricity price level of $0.692 per kWh, the model optimizes that this will reduce electricity consumption from 33.65 gWh to 7.84 gWh, domestic crop cultivation from 15.1 million tons to 6.3 million tons, and crops' export from 0.062 million tons to 0.057 million tons while will increase crops’ import from 9.5 million tons to 18.3 million tons.…”
