 Utilitarian cake-cutting

Utilitarian cake-cutting refers to a method of dividing a resource (in this case, a cake) among multiple parties in a way that aims to maximize overall utility or satisfaction. The concept comes from the broader principles of utilitarianism, which emphasizes the greatest good for the greatest number. In cake-cutting scenarios, the goal is to allocate pieces of cake among individuals so that each person feels they have received a fair share, ideally maximizing their happiness or utility.
