Efficiency, equity and pollution: the case of radioactive waste

The absence of compensation for third parties who are the victims of residual (that is, permitted) pollution can entail a violation of Rawls's second principle of justice. Environmental pollution, insofar as it is an uncharged cost, may lead also to an economically inefficient distribution of goods and services. Radioactivity and radiation dose are forms of pollution for which a control philoso...

Increasing the Scope and Resolution of Interprocedural Static Single Assignment

While intraprocedural Static Single Assignment (SSA) is ubiquitous in modern compilers, the use of interprocedural SSA, although seemingly a natural extension, is limited. We find that part of the impediment is due to the narrow scope of variables handled by previously reported approaches, leading to limited benefits in optimization. In this study, we increase the scope of Interprocedural SSA (...

Increasing the Scope for Polymorph Prediction using e-Science

This poster demonstrates how e-Science can accelerate and facilitate scientific discovery in developing computational methods of predicting the possible crystal structures of organic molecules. We will show how re-engineering an existing scientific process using state-of-the-art distributed computing technologies will not only improve the speed of the scientific process but also make it possibl...

Biological pollutants and biological pollution--an increasing cause for concern.

There are increasing concerns regarding the delivery, movement and presence of non-indigenous or invasive species into marine and estuarine areas. Such introductions can be on a large scale such as the movement to higher latitudes of species as the result of global warming. Alternatively, such species can be introduced into a marine or estuarine area as the result of small-scale events, such as...
