Polis: The Journal for Ancient Greek and Roman Political Thought, 2019
Abstract Discussions of the liberty of the ancients, in contemporary political theory, treat democratic freedom, and the political equality on which democracy was premised, as anathema to the liberty of the moderns. This article discusses ancient democratic liberty by referencing the theory of arithmetic equality preserved by Aristotle and Plato and ...

Equality of Opportunity and Equality of Results
Harvard Educational Review, 1973This [Inequality: A Reassessment of the Effect of Family and Schooling in America] could have been an important book. Jencks and his colleagues have had the audacity to assemble and reanalyse a wide range of research on inequality, and have demonstrated a high level of technical skill in doing so. But the book misses the opportunity.

AORN Journal, 1967
WHAT IS JOB EVALUATION? Job evaluation is not a scientific tool, rather it is a systematic and orderly way of gathering factual information about jobs and classifying these jobs to determine equitable salaries. Actually, we classify many things to simplify everyday activities.

The Arithmetic Teacher, 1955
Some Time Ago a group of our students were planning an arithmetic television program. They raised the question whether 3+2=5 should be read “Three plus two equals five” or “Three plus two equal five.” Also, they asked, “Does it make any difference if we speak about concrete objects?” For example, should we say, “Three bears plus two bears equals five ...

Equality and Equal Opportunity for Welfare
Philosophical Studies, 1989This chapter argues that the idea of equal opportunity for welfare is the best interpretation of the ideal of distributive equality. It considers a distributive agency that has at its disposal a stock of goods that individuals want to own and use. The problem to be considered is: How to divide the goods in order to meet an appropriate standard of ...

Australian Journal of Social Issues, 1973
Some areas of educational inequality in the Australian school setting are explored. Crucial to the examination are two alternative definitions of ‘equality’. The educational implications of acceptance of one of these definitions rather than the other are explicated in relation to educational policy‐making and educational practice.

IEEE Transactions on Communications, 1984
Summary: Blind equalizers do not require any known training sequence for the startup period, but can rather perform at any time the equalization directly on the data stream. In this paper, a general approach is presented for designing efficient blind equalizers for one and two independent carrier transmission systems; a special algorithm is given for ...

Studia Logica, 2010
The author introduces equality algebras. They have two connectives, a meet operation and an equivalence, and a constant. He shows that equivalential equality algebras are term-equivalent with BCK-algebras with meet. As a by-product, he obtains a quite general result, which is analogous to a result of Kabziński and Wroński.

Equality Reasoning with Equality-paths
1986The theoretical and practical problems of equality reasoning in Automated Deduction are notorious. A new method is presented to cope with the huge search space usually involved with equality. Starting from an empty graph a production system constructs graphs (equality-paths) which represent solutions for simpler problems defined by abstraction.
