Straddle carrier routing optimization at container terminals utilizing telemetry‐based prediction

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Efficient vehicle routing and scheduling for horizontal transport means on container terminals can reduce lead times and travel distances, resulting in fuel savings and productivity gains. We apply machine learning to emulate operational processes, bridging the gap between theoretical optimization models and real‐world practices at container ...

How to optimise tournament draws: The case of the FIFA World Cup

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract The organisers of major sports competitions use different policies with respect to constraints in the group draw. Our paper aims to rationalise these choices by analysing the trade‐off between attractiveness (the number of games played by teams from the same geographic zone) and fairness (the departure of the draw mechanism from a uniform ...

Patient‐Reported Outcome Measures Following Pulsed‐Field Ablation Versus Thermal Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation: The PROMs‐PFA Study

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Pulsed‐field was associated with less early post‐procedural chest pain than thermal ablation. ABSTRACT Background Pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) has transformed atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation, but how the early patient experience compares with thermal techniques remains unclear.
