Worked example (hypothetical offers A, B and C): the one eligible fleet and the slip that removes it
B alone clears the assumed base gates: 60 nodes, 960 kW, 48,000 tokens/s, arrival week 20. A one-week release slip leaves no eligible offer.derived

| Derivation | A needs ceil(48,000/1,000) = 48 nodes and 960 kW, but 160 GB < 180 GB rejects it. B needs ceil(48,000/800) = 60 nodes and 60 × 16 = 960 kW; 186 GB clears memory and leaves 40 kW input margin. C needs ceil(48,000/700) = 69 nodes and 1,035 kW, so power rejects it. B arrival = max(12,14,18) + 2 = week 20. A one-week system-release slip moves arrival to week 21 and rejects B too. A power budget of at least 1,035 kW lets C pass on power, but C has no confirmed delivery date, so it still cannot be awarded. |
