 Pareto Analysis (the 80:20 rule)
Even in circumstances which do not strictly conform to the 80 : 20 rule the method is an extremely useful way to identify the most critical aspects on which to concentrate.
This effect, known as the 80 : 20 rule, can be observed in action so often that it seems to be almost a universal truth.
As several economists have pointed out, at the turn of the century the bulk of the country’s wealth was in the hands of a small number of people.

 Weblogs and power laws (kottke.org)
A familiar way to think about power laws is the 80/20 rule: 80% of the wealth is controlled by 20% of the population.
I've also noticed the power law in effect in the inter-page links which occur on a wiki, which is interesting because links are typically made based on the merits of the information, and not due to either a cult of personality or simply high visibility.
You can generate power law distributions where in circumstances where the probability that, say, a randomly selected web page will link to your page is an increasing function of the number of pages that have *already* linked to your page.

This pattern, referred to as the 80/20 rule, predicts that 80 percent of citations come from 20 percent of the cited journals (Trueswell, 1969).
For example, Sylvia and Lesher (1995) found from their analysis of theses that the top 20 percent of journals cited only constituted 62 percent of the total citations.
Among the dissertations, theses and academic research papers included in the citation analysis, a total of 4580 citations to 1584 periodicals were found.

Power law distributions, the shape that has spawned a number of catch-phrases like the 80/20 Rule and the Winner-Take-All Society, are finally being understood clearly enough to be useful.
The linguist George Zipf observed that word frequency falls in a power law pattern, with a small number of high frequency words (I, of, the), a moderate number of common words (book, cat cup), and a huge number of low frequency words (peripatetic, hypognathous).
Six Degrees, and The Laws of the Web, we know that power law distributions tend to arise in social systems where many people express their preferences among many options.

 History of Ice Hockey
The League passed a rule prior to the start of the 1979-80 season decreeing that anyone who came into the NHL from that point on had to wear a helmet.
At its inception, the NHL boasted five franchises- the Montreal Canadiens, the Montreal Wanderers, the Ottawa Senators, the Quebec Bulldogs, and the Toronto Arenas.
Eventually the PCL folded, and at the start of the 1926 season, the NHL, which at that point had ten teams, divided into two divisions and took control of the Stanley Cup.

Vilfredo Pareto was a 19th century Italian economist, Vilfredo Pareto, who noticed that around 80% of the wealth of the country was held by around 20% of the population (and that this was recursive: of the 20%, 80% of their wealth was held by 20% of this privileged society).

Over time and through application in a variety of environments, this analytic has come to be called Pareto's Principle, the 80-20 Rule, and the "Vital Few and Trivial Many Rule." Called by whatever name, this mix of 80%-20% reminds us that the relationship between input and output is not balanced.

Pareto called this a “predictable imbalance.’ His observation eventually became known as either the “80:20 rule” or “Pareto’s Principle”.
The 80:20 rule originated from Vilfredo Pareto, an Italian economist who studied the distribution of wealth in a variety of countries around 1900.
The 80:20 rule has been expanded far since it’s first economic use.

Popularizations of power law distributions and the 80/20 rule have fastened onto the idea that winner-takes-all networks are, not just a special case of networks governed by power laws, but the state toward which they inevitably tend.
For proof, they turned, not unreasonably, to the 80/20 rule: since Microsoft has 80+ market share, with other operating systems receiving the remaining 20-, they argued that the 80/20 rule applied and proved the presence of a power law.
Power laws produce scale free networks, whose distinguishing characteristic is the hierarchy of hubs along the curve of the distribution.

 Encyclopedia: Pareto principle
The so-called Pareto principle (also known as the 80-20 rule, the law of the vital few and the principle of factor sparsity) states that for many phenomena 80% of consequences stem from 20% of the causes.
The principle can be viewed as recursive, and may be applied not only to the top 20% of causes; thus there would be a "64-4" rule (64% of the consequences stem from 4% of the causes), and a "51.2-0.8" rule, and so on.
This idea is often applied to data such as sales figures: "20% of clients are responsible for 80% of sales volume." Such a statement is testable, is likely to be approximately correct, and may be helpful in decision making.

Once I have the cumulative frequency curve in a Pareto Chart, the method I commonly use is to project the 80% mark from the Y axis to the curve, and drop the intrecept down on the x axis from that point.

 The Pareto Principle - The 80/20 rule
Pareto's Principle, or the 80/20 Rule, should serve as a continual reminder to focus eighty percent of your effort on the twenty percent of your tasks that matter the most.
Because Pareto's initial discovery involved a distribution of 80% of wealth to 20% of families and it's inverse, the Pareto Principle is often called "The 80/20 rule".
In 1906, Italian economist and sociologist, Vilfredo Pareto (sometimes misspelled Wilfredo, Alfredo, or Vilfred) created a mathematical formula to describe the uneven income distribution in Switzerland at that time, observing that eighty percent of the wealth was held by a mere twenty percent of the families.

Pareto's Principle: The 80-20 Rule by Arthur W. Hafner, Ph.D
The Pareto Principle is often expressed in percent (80% / 20%), but it really isn't about numbers.
The real message of this rule is that there is a predictable imbalance in the world that affects all of our lives, and if we can just become aware of it we can then direct our efforts to greatly improve our chances of success.

 [e-lang] E and SWT
The overall summary is that SWT follows the 80-20 rule: it gives you about 80% of the useful functionality of Swing for 20% of the cost.
While SWT Motif still looks funky on a KDE desktop, it is a tremendous improvement on the JavaSoft metal landf, which is the ugliest bit of user interface design since the death of the lime-green-on-black 80-character terminal in the mid 80s.
I estimate that this tamed version of SWT has no more than 1/8th as many security vulnerabilities as the taming pass I made over Swing, which means there are probably two or three serious vulnerabilities waiting to get caught by someone doing a more careful pass.

After Pareto made his observation and created his rule formula or principle, many others observed similar phenomena in their own areas of expertise.
