Balancing the Balance

IIC - International Review of Intellectual Property and Competition Law, 2013
If court decisions and legislative activity are the bread and butter of legal academics, 2012 offered a gargantuan banquet to observers of the Canadian copyright scene: a series of amendments to the Copyright Act unlike anything that had been seen for 15 years and no less than six Supreme Court decisions.

Balancing weight-balanced trees

Journal of Functional Programming, 2011
Abstract A weight-balanced tree (WBT) is a binary search tree, whose balance is based on the sizes of the subtrees in each node. Although purely functional implementations on a variant WBT algorithm are widely used in functional programming languages, many existing implementations do not maintain balance after deletion in some cases ...

Balance

2013
This chapter addresses the important and undertreated problem of balance disorders. The chapter has a simplified summary of the physiology of balance problems in order to set the scene. The issue of assessment is next addressed with discussion of important tests including the Berg Balance Scale and the Get Up and Go Test, and others.

On balance

Proceedings of the Fourteenth International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Law, 2013
In the course of legal reasoning--whether for purposes of deciding an issue, justifying a decision, predicting how an issue will be decided, or arguing for how it should be decided--one often is required to reach (and assert) conclusions based on a balance of reasons that is not straightforwardly reducible to the application of rules.

Balanced Allocations

SIAM Journal on Computing, 1999
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 ...

Balance Machines: Computing = Balancing

2003
We 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.

Balanced Loading

Operations Research, 1992
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.

Balance In Nursing

AJN, American Journal of Nursing, 1958
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, 2014
The 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, 2009
This 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
