Abstract

This thesis builds upon previous work done on the topic of fair division to attempt to answer the question as to whether computers can be used to determine a fair division of assets among players. The experiment I will be conducting will dive into how fairness can be achieved through visualization technology. There will also be a literature review portion of this thesis that will delve into topics such as different fair division algorithms and the criteria of fairness they use, the application of those algorithms in real life situations, and the computation constraints that come with fair division algorithms. The discussion portion of this paper will explore how visualization can be used to provide a more flexible solution to the fair division problem in comparison to single-answer algorithms.
