An allocation rule for connection scheduling problems
Abstract This paper studies so‐called connection scheduling problems, a type of interactive operations research problem. A connection scheduling problem combines aspects from the minimum cost spanning tree and sequencing problems. Given a graph, we aim to first establish a connection order on the players such that the total cost of connecting them to a

ABSTRACT Previous studies on Cydia pomonella eggs have demonstrated reliable egg adhesion to the leaves and fruits of various apple cultivars. In contrast to biological substrates, this study is focused on standardised synthetic substrates to measure egg pull‐off forces and determine adhesive strength, allowing for an unbiased comparison with other ...

Abstract Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are rare tumors that may arise in the small intestine (siNET) or pancreas (pNET). The tumors have heterogeneous clinical characteristics, and diagnosis may be challenging. Current non‐invasive biomarkers perform suboptimally, and novel biomarkers are highly needed.

Summary We hypothesized that B‐GATA family transcription factors have important roles in growth regulation in moss. We analyzed B‐GATA family transcription factor mutants from Physcomitrium patens and Arabidopsis thaliana to assess growth, gene expression, and cytokinin‐related processes under varying nitrogen conditions.
