Property Rights and Welfare Economics: Miller et al. v. Schoene Revisited
The authors of the present comments have directed their attention to several points in our analysis of the case of Miller et al. v. Schoene. The purpose of our attempt at a diagrammatic exposition of the case was to ultimately illuminate the nature of choices open to society in utility space. While both have valid criticisms, it is unfortunate that neither attempted to fully explore and demonstrate the implications of their recommendations and suggestions on the grand utility frontiers. Following their lead we will specificially respond to their several comments sequentially:
Property Rights and Welfare Economics: Miller et al. v. Schoene Revisited: Comment
In the May 1980 issue of this journal, Mercuro and Ryan (M-R) applied some graphical concepts from welfare economics to the Samuels-Buchanan discussion of Virginia's Cedar Rust statute. While M-R's approach is an innovative and educational way of viewing this exchange, their analysis suffers from a technical error which distorts the choice that was to be made in deciding whether or not to enact such a statute. The purpose of this comment is to correct this error and to pursue, in the same vein as M-R, the proper characterization of this policy problem.
Fault Diagnosis and CAN Bus/Ethernet Redundancy Design of a Monitoring and Control System
The ship monitoring system is used to monitor and control the working status of various equipment on the ship. The navigational safety of the ship is affected directly by the stable working of the monitoring system. In this paper, a ship monitoring system with fault-type judgment function and bus redundancy is designed to improve system reliability and reduce fault checking cost. A redundant Ethernet/CAN bus communication network is constructed in the system, which connects multiple simulation nodes. The simulation node can simulate the faults that may occur during the communication process and feeds back the fault information to the host computer. The host computer will analyze and display the corresponding fault type on the user interface with the feedback information is received. The system reconfigures the network route autonomously when the simulation node has a communication fault. Routing of fault nodes can be switched to redundant routing, and the load balancing of the communication network can be maintained. Through experimental tests, the system can accurately locate faults and achieve fast switching of redundant routes between buses. Hence, the reliability of data transmission is improved.
