Increasing urban water self-sufficiency: new era, new challenges.
Urban water supplies are traditionally based on limited freshwater resources located outside the cities. However, a range of concepts and techniques to exploit alternative water resources has gained ground as water demands begin to exceed the freshwater available to cities. Based on 113 cases and 15 in-depth case studies, solutions used to increase water self-sufficiency in urban areas are anal...
متن کاملΦ - Divergences , Sufficiency , Bayes Sufficiency , and Deficiency
The paper studies the relations between φ-divergences and fundamental concepts of decision theory such as sufficiency, Bayes sufficiency, and LeCam’s deficiency. A new and considerably simplified approach is given to the spectral representation of φ-divergences already established in Österreicher and Feldman [28] under restrictive conditions and in Liese and Vajda [22], [23] in the general form...
متن کاملAlkaline mineral water lowers bone resorption even in calcium sufficiency: alkaline mineral water and bone metabolism.
BACKGROUND Dietary acid charge enhances bone loss. Bicarbonate or alkali diet decreases bone resorption in humans. We compared the effect of an alkaline mineral water, rich in bicarbonate, with that of an acid one, rich in calcium only, on bone markers, in young women with a normal calcium intake. METHODS This study compared water A (per litre: 520 mg Ca, 291 mg HCO(3)(-), 1160 mg SO(4)(-), P...
متن کاملProbabilistic Sufficiency and Algorithmic Sufficiency from the point of view of Information Theory
Given the importance of Markov chains in information theory, the definition of conditional probability for these random processes can also be defined in terms of mutual information. In this paper, the relationship between the concept of sufficiency and Markov chains from the perspective of information theory and the relationship between probabilistic sufficiency and algorithmic sufficien...
متن کاملComputing Efficiency, Sufficiency, and Self-sufficiency: A Model for Sustainability?
Computing is an activity that is based on natural resources like any other human activity. Technological progress has made it possible to perform more and more computations with less material and energy input. This paper looks at this development through the lens of the three concepts of efficiency, sufficiency, and self-sufficiency, asking the question of whether it could lead to a state of se...
