Facility Location with Tree Topology and Radial Distance Constraints

open access: yesComplexity, 2019
Let Gd=V,Ed be an input disk graph with a set of facility nodes V and a set of edges Ed connecting facilities in V. In this paper, we minimize the total connection cost distances between a set of customers and a subset of facility nodes S⊆V and among ...

Exact and metaheuristic approaches to minimizing makespan in parallel machine scheduling with conflicting jobs

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We address the scheduling conflicting jobs on parallel identical machines problem with makespan minimization, a classical and computationally challenging variant of parallel machine scheduling. We develop and evaluate three distinct solution methodologies: a novel constraint programming (CP) formulation, and two metaheuristics: a multi ...

A new catfish species of Microcambeva Costa & Bockmann, 1994 (Siluriformes: Trichomycteridae) from southern Brazil, with a redescription of M. ribeirae Costa, Lima & Bizerril, 2004

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Among the few species of Microcambeva reported as occurring in more than one hydrographic basin, M. ribeirae has been previously listed from both the Ribeira de Iguape and the Guaraqueçaba basins. However, morphological and molecular analyses revealed that the specimens from Guaraqueçaba represent a new species, which is described in this ...

Fixed Simplex Property for Retractable Complexes

open access: yesFixed Point Theory and Applications, 2010
Retractable complexes are defined in this paper. It is proved that they have the fixed simplex property for simplicial maps. This implies the theorem of Wallace and the theorem of Rival and Nowakowski for finite trees: every simplicial map transforming ...

Material Semiotic Narratives of Finnishness Through a Mundane Object: The Case of the Plastic Bucket

open access: yesNations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article explores how Finnishness is constructed in media texts with and through plastic buckets. By so doing, the article contributes to research on materiality and nationalism through examining the role of a mundane object instead of official national symbols.

Cheating or Competing? University Students’ Experience of AI Marketing and What It Means for AI Literacy Programming

open access: yesAnnals of Anthropological Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given generative AI's rapid incursion into higher education, we examined how AI tools are marketed to US college students and how students experience AI promotions. Using a scalable action research model, we collected and analyzed 131 social media ads, 48 student interviews, and field notes compiled by three interns at student‐facing AI ...

Evolutionary mobility and genetic dynamics of MORFFO genes: shuttling among ancient plant lineages

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Plastid genomes (plastomes) of land plants are characterized by their architectural and genic content stability. However, fern plastomes exhibit unexpected dynamism, characterized by the presence of mobile protein‐coding genes (CDS) – Mobile Open Reading Frames in Fern Organelles (MORFFOs). We investigate the evolutionary dynamics of MORFFOs in

Virtue or passion? How moral frames in climate change appeals elicit emotions and change opinions

open access: yesPolitical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Political climate change debates make use of different moral frames of climate change diagnoses and solutions. While it is argued that moral frames are more effective when they invoke strong moral emotions, thus far the relationship between real‐world political moral viewpoints on climate change and the arousal of related emotions, behavior ...

Exploring Clique Transversal Variants on Distance-Hereditary Graphs: Computational Insights and Algorithmic Approaches

open access: yesAlgorithms
The clique transversal problem is a critical concept in graph theory, focused on identifying a minimum subset of vertices that intersects all maximal cliques in a graph. This problem and its variations—such as the k-fold clique, {k}-clique, minus clique,
