They also follow a "power law" distribution, which means bigger avalanches happen less often than smaller avalanches, according to a strict mathematical ratio.
它们也遵循一个叫“幂次定律”的分配，意思是说根据一个严格的数学比例，大规模雪崩会比小规模的少。

But that obvious observation conceals a precise mathematical description: the link between the severity and frequency of conflicts follows a smooth curve, known as a power law.
用一个很简单的数学式，可以表示为：存活率与冲突频率间呈现平实的曲线关系，这被认为是法的力量。

We can measure CPU usage once a minute, convert the result into a power usage using a defined mathematical model, and submit the result to AMEE for a high-resolution estimate of emissions.
