Abstract. Perfectly rational decision-makers maximize expected utility, but crucially ignore the resource costs incurred when determining optimal actions. Here we employ an axiomat...
We study the problem of minimizing the expected cost of binary searching for data where the access cost is not fixed and depends on the last accessed element, such as data stored i...
