Francis Su's Fair Division Page

Click on The Fair Division Calculator which has recently been updated! (version 3.01, 4/12/00)

A java applet for interactive decision making to find envy-free divisions of goods, burdens, or rent.

The Fair Division Calculator will soon be integrated into ARTUS, a process control system for group decision and negotiation on the Internet. ARTUS is a project directed by Matthias Raith. When the integration is complete, it will be the first analytical mediation support system on the Internet!
