  HOW TO USE TRADEOFFThe tradeoff program is based on the program "$FTROFF: A Basic Program for Tradeoff Analysis," ...
TRADEOFF produces an estimate of the relative utilities of each of the levels of the two attributes considered.
For example a tradeoff matrix that is 2 attribute levels by 3 attribute levels in size would contain 6 tradeoff pairs, or data points within a 2 row by 3 column matrix.
Tradeoff tables may be entered in any order, as long as attribute numbers are identified in the first two numbers of each data line.

 Space-time tradeoff - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The most common situation is an algorithm involving a lookup table: an implementation can include the entire table, which reduces computing time, but increases the amount of memory needed, or it can compute table entries as needed, increasing computing time, but reducing memory requirements.
If data is stored uncompressed, it takes more space but less time than if the data were stored compressed (since compressing the data reduces the amount of space it takes, but it takes time to run the compression algorithm).
In other areas, space-time tradeoffs can be made when performing brute force attacks against cryptosystems through the creation of rainbow tables.

 SSRN-A Reappraisal of the Inflation-Unemployment Tradeoff by Marika Karanassou, Hector Sala Lorda, Dennis Snower
This paper offers a reappraisal of the inflation-unemployment tradeoff, based on "frictional growth" describing the interplay between nominal frictions and money growth.
When the money supply grows in the presence of price inertia (due to staggered wage contracts with time discounting), the price adjustments to each successive change in the money supply are never able to work themselves out fully.

This paper discusses the short-run tradeoff between inflation and unemployment.
Although this tradeoff remains a necessary building block of business cycle theory, economists have yet to provide a completely satisfactory explanation for it.
According to the consensus view among central bankers and monetary economists, a contractionary monetary shock raises unemployment, at leasst temporarily, and leads to a delayed and gradual fall in inflation.

 Risk-Return Tradeoff
Low levels of uncertainty (low risk) are associated with low potential returns, whereas high levels of uncertainty (high risk) are associated with high potential returns.
In other words, the risk-return tradeoff says that invested money can render higher profits only if it is subject to the possibility of being lost.
Because of the risk-return tradeoff, you must be aware of your personal risk tolerance when choosing investments for your portfolio.
