Abstract:
This paper takes a simple, informal suggestion by Broome and another more explicit suggestion by Kamm for how to deal with asymmetric claims and shows how they can be interpreted to be consistent with two different social welfare functions: Sum-of-square-roots of individual utilities, and product of utilities. These functions are then used to analyze more complicated situations but I show that the first yields more intuitive results, and a better compromise of efficiency and justice, than the other.

In a traditional mathematics curriculum, middle school students' experiences with functions in algebra are usually limited to linear relationships. However, a number of realworld experiences (e.g., compound interest, population growth, and the amount of a drug remaining in a subject's bloodstream) involve exponential functions. In this article, I describe two problems involving exponential functions and some basic probability concepts that were used in an eighthgrade class, which led to greater student understanding about the general form of an exponential function.

In this setup, we establish a notable dichotomy between two of the most well-studied fairness notions in discrete fair division; specifically, between envy-freeness up to one good (EF1) and maximin shares (MMS).

The rise of machine learning-driven decision-making has sparked a growing emphasis on algorithmic fairness.

Building on this idea, the literature has rapidly incorporated a myriad of extensions, devising fair versions of the existing frequentist clustering algorithms, e.g., k-means, k

Fair use is a common exception to trademark rights in national laws. Although it is a widely recognized illustrative example of exceptions within Article 17 of the TRIP Agreement, practice in national law often requires supplementary mechanisms that can appropriately balance the interests between two opposing parties. This article reviews the burden of proof for defendants, the methods of applying law by courts and the balancing of interests between trademark owners and third parties regarding fair use in Chinese law. The analysis of these procedural and substantive law issues shows that fair

Abstract:
Flow control is the dominant technique currently used in communication networks for preventing excess traffic from flooding the network, and for handling congestion. In rate-based flow control, transmission rates of sessions are adjusted in an end-to-end manner through a sequence of operations. In this work, we present a theory of max-min fair, rate-based flow control sensitive to priorities of different sessions, as a significant extension of the classical theory of max-min fair, rate-based flow control to networks supporting applications with diverse requirements on network resources.

Fair Work Australia is a new industrial relations tribunal that comes with more than 100 years of history that has shaped its functions and substantive work. This article briefly plots the development of Fair Work Australia’s jurisdiction in respect of awards, bargaining and agreement making, the ‘alternative’ dispute resolution of rights-based disputes, termination of employment, industrial organizations, and appeals. It then analyses statistical data to reveal the changes that have occurred in the day-to-day work of Australia’s national industrial institution over time. The independence and

Abstract:
Obtaining fit-to-use data associated with diverse aspects of biodiversity, ecology and environment is challenging since often it is fragmented, sub-optimally managed and available in heterogeneous formats. Recently, with the universal acceptance of the FAIR data principles, the requirements and standards of data publications have changed substantially. Researchers are encouraged to manage the data as per the FAIR data principles and ensure that the raw data, metadata, processed data, software, codes and associated material are securely stored and the data be made available with the completion

Abstract:
Focus on fair lending has become more intensified recently as bank and non-bank lenders apply artificial-intelligence (AI)-based credit determination approaches. The data analytics technique behind AI and machine learning (ML) has proven to be powerful in many application areas. However, ML can be less transparent and explainable than traditional regression models, which may raise unique questions about its compliance with fair lending laws. ML may also reduce potential for discrimination, by reducing discretionary and judgmental decisions. As financial institutions continue to explore ML appl

Abstract:
With the rapid development of mobile devices and wireless technologies, mobile social networks become increasingly available. People can implement many applications on the basis of mobile social networks. Secure computation, like exchanging information and file sharing, is one of such applications. Fairness in secure computation, which means that either all parties implement the application or none of them does, is deemed as an impossible task in traditional secure computation without mobile social networks. Here we regard the applications in mobile social networks as specific functions and st

Abstract:
Some stochastic phenomena that appear in real-world processes and satisfy some similar characteristics can be effectively modeled using functions based on variants of the chi distribution. In this paper, we extend the use of the uncentered chi distribution to the assessment of sports performance, focusing on its ability to characterize the physical fitness of athletes. The generating functions, constructed from individual test data assumed to follow a Gaussian distribution, provide a basis for creating a fitness index. In addition, we propose a methodology to rank athletes based on their perfo

Abstract:
We consider the problem of actively eliciting preferences from a Decision Maker supervising a collective decision process in the context of fair multiagent combinatorial optimization. Individual preferences are supposed to be known and represented by linear utility functions defined on a combinatorial domain and the social utility is defined as a generalized Gini Social evaluation Function (GSF) for the sake of fairness. The GSF is a non-linear aggregation function parameterized by weighting coefficients which allow a fine control of the equity requirement in the aggregation of individual util

The request of equal accessibility must be respected to some extent when dealing with problems of designing or rebuilding of emergency service systems. Not only the disutility of the average user but also the disutility of the worst situated user must be taken into consideration. Respecting this principle is called fairness of system design. Unfairness can be mitigated to a certain extent by an appropriate fair allocation of additional facilities among the centres. In this article, two criteria of collective fairness are defined in the connection with the facility allocation problem. To solve

Abstract:
CPU scheduler is the primary component of an operating system which supports multitasking. Fair Share CPU scheduler uses static policy to share the CPU time among different levels of system. Static sharing of CPU time can affect the performance of system. Moreover, Fair share scheduler does not consider the impreciseness and uncertainty related to tasks. The objective is to design a vague based fair share scheduler (VFS). VFS scheduler extends the research in the field of fair sharing of CPU time where the functions of VFS scheduler are threefold: firstly, it deals with the impreciseness of ta

In 2011, the fair use provision was introduced in Korean copyright law. While it has been reformed once to make it more effective, and efforts have been made to establish so-called fair use guidelines to increse its predictability, doubts are raised as to whether fair use functions as a practical standard in actual copyright cases. It is time to point out its status quo and to observe how fair use has been operated by the Korean judiciary; this new legal instrument is intended to actively pursue a balance between the interests of creators and users/the public.
