Read the equation
Divides current queue length by maximum queue length. It measures occupancy relative to capacity, with units canceling when the lengths share the same definition.
Terms & definitions
The recovered passage does not supply a separate symbol table. Read the source context for the notation used in this version; familiar letters may carry different meanings in other builds.
How it works
Read C_3 as the quantity being defined or updated by this relation.
Forms a ratio or division. A zero denominator needs an explicit exclusion or handling rule.
Use this version’s variable definitions and update order. The same symbol may be assigned a different meaning in another build.
Assumptions & limits
Source recovery establishes that the expression appears in this record. Its mathematical validity, implementation behavior, and interpretation must be assessed separately. See the linked source and research notes for the checks available for this version.

Routing, addressing, congestion.
1. Latency:
L_3 = t_{\text{recv}} - t_{\text{send}}
2. Congestion:
C_3 = \frac{Q_{\text{len}}}{Q_{\text{max}}}
3. Cost:
\text{Cost}_3 = a_3 L_3 + b_3 C_3
