Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.This perspective article considers what computations optical computing can and should enable. Focusing upon free‐space optical computing, it argues that a codesign approach whereby materials, devices, architectures, and algorithms are simultaneously optimized is needed.

Automating Algorithm Experiments With ALGator: From Problem Modeling to Reproducible Results
Software: Practice and Experience, Volume 56, Issue 1, Page 26-41, January 2026.ABSTRACT Background Theoretical algorithm analysis provides fundamental insights into algorithm complexity but relies on simplified and often outdated computational models. Experimental algorithmics complements this approach by evaluating the empirical performance of algorithm implementations on real data and modern computing platforms.

Workload equity in multiperiod vehicle routing problems
International Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 245-267, January 2026.Abstract An equitable distribution of workload is essential when deploying vehicle routing solutions in practice. For this reason, previous studies have formulated vehicle routing problems with workload‐balance objectives or constraints, leading to trade‐off solutions between routing costs and workload equity.

An optimization framework for solving capacitated multi-level lot-sizing problems with backlogging
, 2011 This paper proposes two new mixed integer programming models for capacitated multi-level lot-sizing problems with backlogging, whose linear programming relaxations provide good lower bounds on the optimal solution value. We show that both of these strong

Financial Portfolio Innovation via the Dhouib‐Matrix‐3 Metaheuristic
Applied Computational Intelligence and Soft Computing, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.The portfolio optimization problem is a mathematical and financial decision‐making method that aims to achieve an optimal trade‐off between financial risk and return. This paper presents the first application of the novel metaheuristic Dhouib‐Matrix‐3 (DM3) to solve the portfolio optimization problem. DM3 is originally designed to address combinatorial
