Cunningham's Rule constructions because they tend to average out how many times a variable pivots. It has recently been shown by David Avis and Oliver Friedmann that there is a family of linear programs on which the simplex algorithm equipped with Cunningham's rule requires exponential time. Cunningham's Rule In mathematical optimization, Cunningham's rule (also known as least recently considered rule or round-robin rule) is an algorithmic refinement of the simplex method for linear optimization. The rule was proposed 1979 by W.H. Cunningham to defeat the deformed hypercube constructions by Klee and Minty et. al. (see, e.g. Klee–Minty cube). Cunningham's rule assigns a
Golden Rule the view of Greg M. Epstein, a Humanist chaplain at Harvard University, " 'do unto others' ... is a concept that essentially no religion misses entirely. "But not a single one of these versions of the golden rule requires a God"". Various sources identify the Golden Rule as a humanist principle: According to Marc H. Bornstein, and William E. Paden, the Golden Rule is arguably the most essential basis for the modern concept of human rights, in which each individual has a right to just treatment, and a reciprocal responsibility to ensure justice for others. However Leo Damrosch argued that
