Cost-benefit trade-offs of bird activity in apple orchards
Birds active in apple orchards in south-eastern Australia can contribute positively (e.g., control crop pests) or negatively (e.g., crop damage) to crop yields. Our study is the first to identify net outcomes of these activities, using six apple orchards, varying in management intensity, in south-eastern Australia as a study system. We also conducted a predation experiment using real and artifi...
متن کاملCost-Benefit Analysis of Space Exploration
Humanity faces many important decisions about space exploration. An important but controversial decision making paradigm is cost-benefit analysis (CBA). This paper discusses some ethical considerations in CBA that are important to decision making about space exploration, including: how we define costs and benefits; space exploration’s non-market value; the standing of future humans and of extra...
متن کاملTime and Cost Trade-Offs in Gossiping
Each of n processors has a value which should be transmitted to all other processors. This fundamental communication task is called gossiping. In a unit of time every processor can communicate with at most one other processor and during such a transmission each member of a communicating pair learns all values currently known to the other. Two important criteria of efficiency of a gossiping algo...
متن کاملCost and Quality Trade-Offs in Crowdsourcing
Algorithms for crowdsourced tasks such as entity resolution, sorting, etc. have been subject to a variety of research work. So far, all of this work has focused on one specific problem respectively. In this paper, we want to focus on the bigger picture. More specifically, we want to show how it is possible to estimate the budget or the quality of an algorithm in a crowdsourcing environment wher...
متن کاملOptical Interconnects for Multiprocessors Cost Performance Trade-offs
Fiber optic interconnects baaed on wavelength division multiplezing (WDM) are a promising candidate for future interconnection networks due to their high bandwidth, low wire density and their low power requirements. As the cost of optical communication hardware for WDM star baaed interconnects may be large, we introduce reduced cost structures. The performance of the optical implementations of ...
