How to compare the incomparable

A technique for deciding between two processes, one with cost (x A, y A) and the second with cost (x B, y B), where x A > x B and y A < y B and no further information is available, is derived using dimension- and gauge-theory like arguments. The technique can be summarized as: If you cannot ad...
