  • A Derived Markov Process for Modeling Reaction Networks
    Evolutionary Computation, 2003
    Co-Authors: John H. Holland
    Abstract:

    A reaction network arises when a set of reactants (chromosomes, chemicals, Economic Goods, or the like) recombine at specified rates to produce other reactants in the set. When the reactants are characterized in terms of “reactive regions” (schemata, active sites, building blocks), reaction networks can be modeled by classic stochastic urn models. The corresponding Markov processes are specified by matrices that, for realistic problems, are small enough to allow standard matrix operations and Monte Carlo estimates of important properties of the trajectory of the process, such as the expected time to first occurrence of some designated reactant.

  • On the valuation of Economic Goods
    Annales. Etyka w Życiu Gospodarczym, 2017
    Co-Authors: Wojciech Giza
    Abstract:

    The presented study includes an analysis of the category of “good” on the basis of philosophy and Economics. Particular attention was paid here to the factors determining the monetary value (price) of an Economic good. While achieving the assumed objective of the research, answers to the following questions were sought: What is the difference, therefore, in the interpretation of good as an axiological category and good which Economics deals with? What is the basis for the valuation of Goods which are the subject of Economic analysis? While seeking answers to these questions, an attempt was made to justify the thesis according to which contemporary understanding of the way the market valuates Goods is limited to accepting the price understood as a variable representing a kind of relationship set in a given time period.

  • O wartosciowaniu dobr ekonomicznych/On the Valuation of Economic Goods
    Annales. Ethics in Economic Life, 2015
    Co-Authors: Wojciech Giza
    Abstract:

    The presented study includes an analysis of the category of ‘good’ on the basis of philosophy and Economics. Particular attention was paid here to the factors determining the monetary value (price) of an Economic good. While achieving the assumed objective of the research, answers to the following questions were sought: What is the difference, therefore, in the interpretation of good as an axiomatic category and good which the economy deals with? What is the basis for the valuation of Goods which are the subject of Economic analysis? While seeking answers to these questions, an attempt was made to justify the thesis according to which contemporary understanding of the way of valuating Goods by the market is limited to accepting the price understood as a variable representing a kind of relationship set in a given time period.

  • Socio-Economic rights in South Africa. The record of the Constitutional Court after ten years : : feature
    2004
    Co-Authors: Dennis Davis
    Abstract:

    Extracted from text ... ESR Review vol 5 no 5 3 Socio-Economic rights in South Africa The record of the Constitutional Court after ten years Dennis Davis A few years before the unbanning of the African National Congress in February 1990, Albie Sachs published a number of papers that challenged the conventional jurisprudential thinking about the role of law in social transformation. In particular, he argued that a new South African Constitution needed to provide for an orderly and fair redistribution by establishing a minimum floor of rights to a series of carefully defined social and Economic Goods. inclusion was inconsistent with a ..

  • Are sex workers entitled to socio-Economic rights? Separating myth from reality : feature
    2009
    Co-Authors: Marlise Richter
    Abstract:

    Socio-Economic rights encompass the basic entitlements of all people in South Africa to social and Economic Goods and services and provide an important mechanism for the attainment of social justice. By virtue of their inherent human dignity, sex workers are entitled to all the socio-Economic rights enshrined in the Constitution. Yet the realisation of these rights is compromised daily by police prosecution, social stigma and gender-based violence. In fact, sex workers' Economic, social and physical vulnerability in South African society is created, sustained and exacerbated by outdated laws that criminalise 'sex for reward'.

  • Understanding and managing taxonomies as Economic Goods and services
    Bulletin of the Association for Information Science and Technology, 2014
    Co-Authors: Denise A. D. Bedford
    Abstract:

    EDITOR'S SUMMARY As pervasive as taxonomies have become in knowledge management, their Economic value is not often scrutinized, documented or fulfilled. Taxonomies range in cost and sophistication from flat lists through thesauri, semantic nets and faceted systems. Each can be an asset or liability to varying degrees relative to the resources expended to design, manage and implement it. A well-designed taxonomy produces value by enabling consistent information management, facilitating records management and compliance, building domain understanding and saving time through efficient access to information. Yet numerous potential liabilities can rise from a taxonomy generating poor search results or being incomplete, out of date, confusing to users or simply not used. Taxonomies must be viewed from a perspective informed by Economics, considering assets and liabilities, actual and indirect costs, external effects on third parties, their value as a public good and the opportunity costs of resources invested. As advocates for taxonomies, we should present the case as knowledge and information economists, fully aware of the range of Economic decisions and effects involved.
