Andy Egan has recently produced a set of alleged counterexamples to causal decision theory (CDT) in which agents are forced to decide among causally unratifiable options, thereby making choices they know they will regret. I show that, far from being counterexamples, CDT gets Egan’s cases exactly right. Egan thinks otherwise because he has misapplied CDT to his cases by requiring agents to make ...

Many of the wireless energy transfer solutions have targeted portable device charging that require features such as low profile, high efficiency, robustness to changing operating conditions and, in some cases, light weight. These requirements translate into designs that need to be efficient and able to operate without a bulky heatsink. Furthermore the design must be able to operate over a wide ...

Construction industry reports by Latham [1994] and more recently Sir John Egan [1998], have highlighted the need for the construction industry to increase productivity, improve quality and reduce defects. In particular, the Egan report urged the industry to focus on construction processes as route to these improvements. However, the industry has not had a recognised framework or methodology to ...
