An In‐Depth Characterization of Page Fault Handling in Modern Persistent Memory Systems
Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, Volume 38, Issue 7, April 2026.ABSTRACT Recent advancements in Persistent Memory (PM) technologies have enabled the integration of such devices directly into the processor's memory hierarchy, allowing them to be accessed via standard load/store instructions. These developments have revived interest in the design and implementation of systems capable of effectively supporting PM.

Recursive and Cyclic Constructions for Double‐Change Covering Designs
Journal of Combinatorial Designs, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 198-209, April 2026.ABSTRACT A double‐change covering design (DCCD) is a v‐set V and an ordered list L of b blocks of size k where every pair from V must occur in at least one block and each pair of consecutive blocks differs by exactly two elements. It is minimal if it has the fewest blocks possible and circular when the first and last blocks also differ by two elements.

Anytime Lexicographic Enumeration of the Pareto Front in Multi‐Objective Combinatorial Optimisation
Journal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, Volume 33, Issue 1, April 2026.ABSTRACT Multi‐objective combinatorial optimisation problems are widespread in real‐world scenarios, including resource allocation, scheduling and logistics, where multiple competing objectives need to be optimised simultaneously. In industrial contexts, lexicographic optimisation is often used to solve these problems, requiring the decision‐maker (DM)

Understanding the human dimensions of wildfire risk at a community level in British Columbia, Canada
Canadian Geographies / Géographies canadiennes, Volume 70, Issue 2, Summer / été 2026.Abstract Recent spikes in the number of large and catastrophic wildfires in Canada pose significant risks to the environment and society. Rural and remote communities are especially at risk due to their location in wildfire‐prone areas, remoteness, and limited access or escape routes.
