Harmony Search Algorithm for Patient Admission Scheduling Problem

open access: yesJournal of Intelligent Systems, 2018
The patient admission scheduling (PAS) problem is an optimization problem in which we assign patients automatically to beds for a specific period of time while preserving their medical requirements and their preferences. In this paper, we present a novel

Closing the Supply Chain Loop: From Circular Product Cues to Post‐Use Behavior

open access: yesJournal of Business Logistics, Volume 47, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This research investigates consumer engagement in closed‐loop supply chains (CLSCs) for fast‐moving consumer goods (FMCGs). We argue that closing the loop effectively begins with the product's design and the signals it sends to the consumer.

Fast and Slow Signal Propagation in Abiotic Polypeptide Assemblies

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 6, 27 March 2026.
Proteinoid microspheres formed by thermal polymerization of amino acids exhibit spontaneous electrical potential fluctuations without genetic material, membranes, or ion channels. Multi‐electrode recordings and electron microscopy reveal composition‐dependent voltage oscillations, long‐term drifts, and correlated signals across electrodes.

A Study on Container Storage Optimization in Yards Based on a Hyper-Heuristic Algorithm with a Q-Learning Mechanism

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems
In the context of a low-carbon economy, scientific methods to reduce carbon emissions have become an important issue for many ports. Carbon emissions in port areas mainly arise from vessels and handling equipment.

Hyper-heuristics for grouping problems

open access: yes, 2020
Hyper-heuristics emerge as domain independent methodologies to solve hard computational search problems by performing search over the heuristics rather than directly solutions. One of the main goals of hyper-heuristic research is to support and investigate into the development of more general approaches applicable across different problem domains ...
