Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental Our experiments on resource allocation problems show that this fairness criterion provides a more favorable solution than the utilitarian criterion, and that our game-theoretic approach is significantly faster than linear programming.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1: An iterative approach to computing the regularized maximin fairness policy
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any links or explicit statements about the availability of its source code.
Open Datasets No The paper describes a 'resource allocation problem' in a 'pulse-line manufacturing plant' for its experiments, but it does not specify a publicly available or open dataset with concrete access information (e.g., link, DOI, or formal citation to an established benchmark).
Dataset Splits No The paper does not explicitly provide details about training, validation, and test splits for the data used in its experiments.
Hardware Specification Yes We used Java for our implementation and Gurobi 2.6 [5] for solving linear programming and ran experiments on a 2.4GHz Intel Core i5 with 8Gb RAM.
Software Dependencies Yes We used Java for our implementation and Gurobi 2.6 [5] for solving linear programming
Experiment Setup Yes We use a discount factor λ = 0.95.
