Description
ここで、x、y及びzはITAの持つカウンタである。A、B及びCはITAに送信されたボリュームの量である。合計が1に等しい時、全てのお金が使用されている。予約された金額はトークンの数を計算するために使用される。
ここで、X、Y及びZはそれぞれのサーバー14a−cにより提供されるバイト数であり、A、B及びCはそれらのそれぞれのサーバーのデータ単位当たりのコストである。したがって、XxAはサーバー14aにより発生するコストを表す。その他も同様である。合計が予約された量である1セントに等しく又は近くなる時、ITA12はステップS7でOSCへメッセージを送信する。
サーバー数、データの単位量のコスト及び接続の活動レート。
