Robotic Mobile Fulfillment Systems (RMFS) are an example of warehouse automation. Nonetheless, the complexity of RMFS is such that tackling the entire problem at once is unfeasible. So, this work focuses on a component known as the Pod Allocation Problem

An Ant Colony based Hyper-Heuristic Approach for the Set Covering Problem
The Set Covering Problem (SCP) is a NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem that is challenging for meta-heuristic algorithms. In the optimization literature, several approaches using meta-heuristics have been developed to tackle the SCP and the ...

Automatic Design of Metaheuristics for Practical Engineering Applications
It is common to find multiple metaheuristics to solve continuous optimization problems. However, choosing what optimizer may obtain the best results for a given task requires exhaustive evaluations that are highly application-dependent.

Automated construction of evolutionary algorithm operators for the bi-objective water distribution network design problem using a genetic programming based hyper-heuristic approach [PDF]
The water distribution network (WDN) design problem is primarily concerned with finding the optimal pipe sizes that provide the best service for minimal cost; a problem of continuing importance both in the UK and internationally.

Mathh: A Matlab-Based Hyper-Heuristic Framework
أثبتت فرط السمع (HHs) أنها أداة قيمة لحل المشكلات المعقدة، مثل مشكلات التحسين التوافقي (COPs). لدى هؤلاء المحللين مجموعة متنوعة من النماذج الناشئة من خلال البحث المكثف من المجتمع العلمي. ومن ثم، فمن المعتاد أن يطور الباحثون نماذجهم من الصفر، مما يزيد من أوقات التطوير. تصبح صياغة الأفكار الجديدة واختبارها مرهقة وتستغرق وقتًا طويلاً.

ABSTRACT Marketing scholars and practitioners are paying increasing attention to social media as a crucial tool for communicating firms' sustainable activities to consumers. This study examines how consumers perceive and engage with social media green marketing, and how their engagement influences their intentions to purchase green products and brands,

The automatic design of hyper-heuristic framework with gene expression programming for combinatorial optimization problems [PDF]
Hyper-heuristic approaches aim to automate heuristic design in order to solve multiple problems instead of designing tailor-made methodologies for individual problems.

ABSTRACT New ventures are expected to continuously add new jobs and managerial positions to meet the expanding demands of scaling. However, the rapid pace and inherent uncertainty of scaling often lead founders of new ventures to rely on heuristics when making these critical hiring and managerial appointment decisions.

How to Conduct a Multi‐Domain Systematic (Literature) Review? Guidelines Using The Lotus Protocol
ABSTRACT Complex challenges increasingly demand multidisciplinary research across intersecting knowledge domains. However, existing systematic (literature) review protocols offer limited guidance and tend to confine scholars to single‐domain or single‐intersection reviews.
