Balance Machines: Computing = Balancing
2003We propose a natural computational model called a balance machine. The computational model consists of components that resemble ordinary physical balances, each with an intrinsic property to automatically balance the weights on their left, right pans.

Summary: Suppose that we sequentially place \(n\) balls into \(n\) boxes by putting each ball into a randomly chosen box. It is well known that when we are done, the fullest box has with high probability \((1 + o(1))\ln n/\ln \ln n\) balls in it. Suppose instead that for each ball we choose two boxes at random and place the ball into the one which is ...

We develop a heuristic for a problem motivated by the loading of aircraft or trucks: pack blocks into a bin so that their center-of-gravity is as close as possible to a target point. Our heuristic either produces good solutions or else signals that none is possible.

DURING the past year, many nurses throughout the country took part in two separate graduation ceremonies-one at which they received their baccalaureate degree, and another marking the completion of their basic program in professional nursing. In some instances, several years separated the two occasions; in others, they occurred simultaneously. The fact

Putting Balancing in the Balance
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2014The essay focuses on the main issues that are at stake between proponents and critics of proportionality, in an attempt to assess the doctrine in comparison with other proposed methods of adjudication that reject it. Although there are probably as many conceptions of the proportionality analysis as are its defenders, it is argued that none of the ...

The Balance of Power in the Balance
World Politics, 2009This article reviews four recent books on balancing and the balance of power. Both in isolation and when taken together, they provide strong analytical and empirical warrants against the proposition that balance of power equilibria represent the “normal condition” or “natural tendency” of international relations. They also reflect the growing dissensus
