All Regions are associated with a unique *Core Index*, to identify which core the Region controls the assignment of.
All Regions are also associated with a *Core Parts*, an 80-bit bitmap, to denote the regularity on which it may be scheduled on the core. If all bits are set in the Core Parts value, it is said to be *Complete*.
All Regions are also associated with a *Core Parts*, an 80-bit bitmap, to denote the regularity on which it may be scheduled on the core. If all bits are set in the Core Parts value, it is said to be *Complete*. 80 is selected since this results in the size of the datatype used to identify any Region of Polkadot Coretime to be a very convenient 128-bit. Additionally, if `TIMESLICE` (the number of Relay-chain blocks in a Timeslice) is 80, then a single bit in the Core Part bitmap represents exactly one Core for one Relay-chain block in one Timeslice.
All Regions have a span. Region spans are quantized into periods of `TIMESLICE` blocks; `BULK_PERIOD` divides into `TIMESLICE` a whole number of times.
