Sensible decisions based on QoS
Network Quality of Service (QoS) criteria of interest include conventional metrics such as throughput, delay, loss, and jitter, as well as new QoS criteria based on power utilization, reliability and security. In this paper we suggest a theoretical framework for the characterization and comparison of adaptive routing algorithms which use QoS as the criterion to select between different paths th...

متن کاملTreatment of bipolar depression: making sensible decisions.
A major challenge in the treatment of major depressive episodes associated with bipolar disorder is differentiating this illness from major depressive episodes associated with major depressive disorder. Mistaking the former for the latter will lead to incorrect treatment and poor outcomes. None of the classic antidepressants, serotonin specific reuptake inhibitors, or serotonin-norepinephrine r...
متن کاملKnowledge-Based Rational Decisions
We outline a mathematical model of rational decision-making based on standard game-theoretical assumptions: 1) rationality yields a payoff maximization given the player’s knowledge; 2) the standard logic of knowledge for Game Theory is the modal logic S5. Within this model, each game has a solution and rational players know which moves to make at each node. We demonstrate that uncertainty in ga...
متن کاملConflicts regarding decisions to limit treatment: a differential diagnosis.
Conflicts between physicians and families about end-of-life decisions create challenging and emotionally difficult situations. In this article, we propose a "differential diagnosis" of such conflicts, distinguishing and describing the characteristics of families, physicians, and organizations and society that contribute to the "etiology" of the situation, as well as strategies for "diagnosing" ...
