    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_scheduling

    Block scheduling or blocking is a type of academic scheduling used in some schools in the American K-12 system, in which students have fewer but longer classes per day than in a traditional academic schedule. It is more common in middle and high schools than in primary schools.

  6. Gridlock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gridlock

    Gridlock on a network of two-way streets. The red cars are those causing the gridlock by stopping in the middle of the intersection. Gridlock is a form of traffic congestion where continuous queues of vehicles block an entire network of intersecting streets, bringing traffic in all directions to a complete standstill.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rules_for_traffic_lights

    In some jurisdictions (such as New York City), [citation needed] there are ordinances or by-laws against "gridlocking".A motorist entering an intersection (even if on a green light) but unable to proceed and who gets stranded in the intersection (when traffic ahead fails to proceed), and who remains after the light turns red (thus blocking traffic from other directions) may be cited.

  8. Blocking (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_(statistics)

    Blocking evolved over the years, leading to the formalization of randomized block designs and Latin square designs. [1] Today, blocking still plays a pivotal role in experimental design, and in recent years, advancements in statistical software and computational capabilities have allowed researchers to explore more intricate blocking designs.

  9. Blocking set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_set

    Theorem: In PG(2,q) with q even, there exists a projective triad of side (q + 2)/2 which is a blocking set of size (3q + 2)/2. [3] The construction is similar to the above, but since the field is of characteristic 2, squares and non-squares need to be replaced by elements of absolute trace 0 and absolute trace 1. Specifically, let C = (0,0,1).
