How to recycle your facets
We show how to transform any inequality defining a facet of some 0/1-polytope into an inequality defining a facet of the acyclic subgraph polytope. While this facet-recycling procedure can potentially be used to construct ‘nasty’ facets, it can also be used to better understand and extend the polyhedral theory of the acyclic subgraph and linear ordering problems.
متن کاملTo Recycle or Not to Recycle? An Intergenerational Approach to Nuclear Fuel Cycles
This paper approaches the choice between the open and closed nuclear fuel cycles as a matter of intergenerational justice, by revealing the value conflicts in the production of nuclear energy. The closed fuel cycle improve sustainability in terms of the supply certainty of uranium and involves less long-term radiological risks and proliferation concerns. However, it compromises short-term publi...
متن کاملHow to Recycle Random Bits
We show that modified versions of the linear congruential generator and the shift register generator are provably good for amplifying the correctness of a probabilistic algorithm. More precisely, if r random bits are needed for a BPP algorithm to be correct with probability at least 2/3, then O(r + k) bits are needed to improve this probability to 1 − 2−k. We also present a different pseudo-ran...
متن کاملTo recycle, or not to recycle, that is the question: Insights from life-cycle analysis
Why recycle? The most commonly stated reason for recycling is to reduce burdens associated with the disposal of our never-ending stream of wastes. Waste disposal potentially causes air and water pollution and is costly; moreover, landfi lls compete with other land uses. In addition, recycling can extend our supply of materials to alleviate scarcity and to moderate rising prices of raw materials...
متن کاملLearning to Survive
The paper discusses possible ways for an autonomous robotic agent to learn to survive. Pitfalls linked with this task and possibilities to overcome them are investigated. This is done in respect to an existing real-world setup and concrete learning approaches as well as on a general level. The connection between the energy-level of a robotic agent and its survivability is examined in some detail.
