Knowledge discovery in hyper-heuristic using case-based reasoning on course timetabling [PDF]

, 2002
This paper presents a new hyper-heuristic method using Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) for solving course timetabling problems. The term Hyper-heuristics has recently been employed to refer to 'heuristics that choose heuristics' rather than heuristics that ...

Solving high school timetabling problems worldwide using selection hyper-heuristics [PDF]

, 2015
High school timetabling is one of those recurring NP-hard real-world combinatorial optimisation problems that has to be dealt with by many educational institutions periodically, and so has been of interest to practitioners and researchers. Solving a high

Dynamics of Transnational Labour Migration Revisited from a Crisis Complex Perspective

Development and Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article uses the notion of crisis complex to analyse the relationship between labour migration and crisis from an institution‐ and process‐oriented perspective. Such an interrogation is timely, given the increasingly crisis‐prone dynamics shaping global labour systems and migration governance, including recruitment, skills recognition and

Advancing a relational perspective on leadership between neurotypical leaders and neurodivergent followers: An integrated systematic review and research agenda

International Journal of Management Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Leaders are widely positioned as cornerstones of neurodiversity inclusion within research and practice. Despite this, the management discipline remains plighted by lack of cohesive understanding regarding leadership in the context of neurodiversity—an issue only exacerbated by the fragmented nature of extant interdisciplinary research.

Automated generation of constructive ordering heuristics for educational timetabling [PDF]

, 2017
Construction heuristics play an important role in solving combinatorial optimization problems. These heuristics are usually used to create an initial solution to the problem which is improved using optimization techniques such as metaheuristics.

A Bi-objective Hyper-Heuristic Support Vector Machines for Big Data Cyber-Security

IEEE Access, 2018
Cyber security in the context of big data is known to be a critical problem and presents a great challenge to the research community. Machine learning algorithms have been suggested as candidates for handling big data security problems.

A unified formulation for home healthcare routing and scheduling problems

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Home Healthcare is an essential component of healthcare systems, where caregivers visit patients' homes to deliver services. While presenting advantages with respect to institutional care, such as being cost‐effective and alleviating family burdens, it presents challenges in scheduling and routing caregivers efficiently.

A formulation and a metaheuristic approach for the clustered vehicle routing problem with d‐relaxed priority rule

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates an extension of the vehicle routing problem in which, in addition to minimizing the distance traveled, the sequencing of customer visits is subject to precedence constraints that impose visiting priorities among customers.

European Green Deal and Geopoliticisation of Trade: A Poststructuralist Discourse Analysis of EU Agricultural Trade Policy

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Drawing on Laclau and Mouffe's poststructuralist discourse theory, this article critically examines the von der Leyen Commission's agricultural trade policy under the European Green Deal. It elucidates the shift from a dominant neoliberal trade logic to open strategic autonomy, positioning agricultural trade as a foreign policy instrument. The
