Climate change control and injury prevention: more win-win solutions

Win-win Theory for Win-win Success

THE INTELLECTUAL INVENTION THAT SURPASSES ALL OTHERS AS THE MOST BENEFICIAL ADVANCE OF HUMAN HISTORY IS RARELY UNDERSTOOD OR APPRECIATED BY EDUCATED ADULTS. With dire consequences for such neglect, there has been no applause for this wondrous invention, no gratitude for its beneficence, no monuments to hail its priceless influence. Largely overlooked, ignored, or taken for granted, this unceleb...

Win-Win Kernelization

We study provably effective and efficient data reduction for a class of NP-hard graph modification problems based on vertex degree properties. We show fixed-parameter tractability for NP-hard graph completion (that is, edge addition) cases while we show that there is no hope to achieve analogous results for the corresponding vertex or edge deletion versions. Our algorithms are based on transfor...

The Win - Win Solution

1. The following four books are all reviewed together by William Gasarch. Fair Division: From Cake Cutting to Dispute Resolution) , by Brams and Taylor, Cake Cutting: Be Fair if You Can by Robertson and Webb, The Win-Win Solution by Brams and Taylor, and Fair Allocation (Proceedings of Symposia in Applied Mathematics, Vol 33) Edited by H. Peyton Young. These books all deal with the problem of f...

Exploiting Soil-Management Strategies for Climate Mitigation in the European Union: Maximizing “Win–Win” Solutions across Policy Regimes

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has identified a number of soil-management strategies that can be implemented to reduce GHG emissions. However, before deciding which of these strategies are most appropriate in any given situation, it is important to investigate how these strategies affect other aspects of sustainable development. For instance, some attempts to sequester car...
