Relative priority

چکیده
Abstract The good of those who are worse off matters more to the overall than better does. But being one’s fellows is not itself bad; nor inequality do differences in well-being matter when lower an absolute sense. Instead, relatively worse-off weighs heavily better-off does, virtue fact that former off. This paper articulates and defends view just described.

DRD4 Long Allele Carriers Show Heightened Attention to High-priority Items Relative to Low-priority Items
Humans with seven or more repeats in exon III of the DRD4 gene (long DRD4 carriers) sometimes demonstrate impaired attention, as seen in attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and at other times demonstrate heightened attention, as seen in addictive behavior. Although the clinical effects of DRD4 are the focus of much work, this gene may not necessarily serve as a "risk" gene for attentional...
متن کاملEfficient implementation of relative differentiated services using proportional probabilistic priority
This paper studies the design and performance of the Probabilistic Priority (PP) [5] packet scheduling algorithm to schedule packets. Unlike an earlier design that uses fractional arithmetic and prohibits large number of classes, we present an integer PP algorithm and show that PP turns out to be a special scheme of applying lottery scheduling [10] to bandwidth allocation in a strict priority s...
متن کاملRELATIVE INFORMATION FUNCTIONAL OF RELATIVE DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS
In this paper by use of mathematical modeling of an observer [14,15] the notion of relative information functional for relative dynamical systemson compact metric spaces is presented. We extract the information function ofan ergodic dynamical system (X,T) from the relative information of T fromthe view point of observer χX, where X denotes the base space of the system.We also generalize the in...

متن کاملDynamic Network Adaptation Framework Employing Layered Relative Priority Index for Adaptive Video Delivery
Delivering high-quality media contents robustly over a wide range of network conditions of the wired/wireless Internet is a highly challenging task. To address this challenging task, the continuous media applications at the edge of network have become more and more adaptive while the best-effort Internet is slowly progressing towards improved networking services. Thus, the role of network adapt...
