The relative importance of undesirable truths
The right not to know is often defended on the basis of the principle of respect for personal autonomy. If I choose not to acquire personal information that impacts on my future prospects, such a choice should be respected, because I should be able to decide whether to access information about myself and how to use it. But, according to the incoherence objection to the right not to know in the ...
متن کاملDetermining the Relative Importance of Parameters Affecting Concrete Pavement Thickness
Spending costs in construction of road pavements has turned this subject into one of the significant points in transportation infrastructure of countries. Concrete slabs consider as a paving method with ability of reducing the rehabilitation needs. Therefore, to manage costs and optimize the thickness of concrete pavements, recognizing the amount of determinative factors’ influence will be requ...
متن کاملThe Relative Importance
This paper presents a detailed comparison of the relative importance of allowing concurrent writers versus the choice of the underlying consistency model. Our comparison is based on single-and multiple-writer versions of a lazy release consistent (LRC) protocol, and a single-writer sequentially consistent protocol, all implemented in the CVM software distributed shared memory system. We nd that...

متن کاملOn the Relative Importance of Excluded Minors
If E is a set of matroids, then Ex(E ) denotes the set of matroids that have no minor isomorphic to a member of E . If E ′ ⊆ E , we say that E ′ is superfluous if Ex(E − E ′)− Ex(E ) contains only finitely many 3-connected matroids. We determine the superfluous subsets of six well-known collections of excluded minors. Dedicated, with affection, to “Mathematician, gone 60, left fox with leg trou...
