The parameter controls the degree of curvature of the profile.

Each parameter controls one or several aspects of an organism in a well-defined way.

This arrangement provides added flexibility compared to compressors (like the JPEG compressor used on Mars Pathfinder) that provide only a single parameter to control image quality.

Convinced that its residents wanted Roslyn to remain quaint, Mr. Prisant tried to establish architectural parameters and legal measures to control the town's size.

The Ward anisotropic distribution [1] uses two user-controllable parameters α and α to control the anisotropy.

The single parameter of this distribution (termed the concentration parameter) controls the relative density or sparseness of the resulting transition matrix.

The parameter controls the bias-variance tradeoff.

The parameter controls the relationship between volatility and price, and is the central feature of the model.

For example, a physical parameter , perhaps the Planck length, might control the deviation from commutative classical spacetime, so that ordinary Lorentzian spacetime arises as .

X-Motor Racing has a telemetry system that displays all general parameters to control vehicle dynamics and tune vehicle physics real-time.
