Meet the Self-contained Karma Economy!
"Today me, tomorrow thee"
Loosely inspired by karma in Indian tradition, we have worked towards formalizing the notion of "give-and-take" in automated resource allocation systems. One day you incur a delay in traffic to let someone with higher urgency arrive on time, for that you gain karma. The next day it becomes your turn to take advantage of fast service , so you spend karma. Such a system gives fair access to shared resources meanwhile serving those who are most in need.
