Measuring the complexity of the law: the United States Code
DM Katz, MJ Bommarito - Artificial intelligence and law, 2014 - Springer
Einstein's razor, a corollary of Ockham's razor, is often paraphrased as follows: make
everything as simple as possible, but not simpler. This rule of thumb describes the challenge …

Long-term global availability of food: continued abundance or new scarcity?
NBJ Koning, MK Van Ittersum, GA Becx… - … Journal of Life …, 2008 - Taylor & Francis
During the 20th century hunger has become a problem of poverty amidst plenty rather than
absolute food scarcity. The question is whether this will remain so or whether the hunger of …
