Sensitivity analysis of the greedy heuristic for binary knapsack problems [PDF]
Greedy heuristics are a popular choice of heuristics when we have to solve a large variety of NP -hard combinatorial problems. In particular for binary knapsack problems, these heuristics generate good results.

Narrating Entanglement Without Dehumanisation in Contemporary Eco‐Fiction
Future Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.ABSTRACT This essay presents a comparative analysis of two contemporary works of eco‐fiction, Richard Powers's The Overstory (2018) and Eleanor Catton's Birnam Wood (2023). Both novels use multiperspective narration in the service of entanglement narratives, forms of storytelling that emphasise the interconnection of human and nonhuman life.

Subsidies, Knapsack Auctions and Dantzig's Greedy Heuristic [PDF]
A budget-constrained buyer wants to purchase items from a shortlisted set. Items are differentiated by quality and sellers have private reserve prices for their items. Sellers quote prices strategically, inducing a knapsack game.

Developmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 3, May 2026.ABSTRACT This longitudinal study examined the developmental relations between first‐order Theory of Mind (ToM), advanced ToM, and executive function (EF) from ages 4 to 7.5. Two‐hundred‐three German children were assessed at ages 4, 5.5, and 7.5 on measures of ToM, EF (working memory, inhibition, cognitive flexibility), general cognition, and language.

Art Adds Value to Ecological Field Courses: A Multi‐Year Case Study in Higher Education
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.This study presents Earth Projects, an interdisciplinary, place‐based field course that merges ecology and ecological art (eco‐art) to foster deeper engagement with environmental learning. Pre‐ and post‐survey comparisons show that incorporating eco‐art can strengthen students' emotional connections to their identities, disciplines, and place.

Anytime Lexicographic Enumeration of the Pareto Front in Multi‐Objective Combinatorial Optimisation
Journal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, Volume 33, Issue 1, April 2026.ABSTRACT Multi‐objective combinatorial optimisation problems are widespread in real‐world scenarios, including resource allocation, scheduling and logistics, where multiple competing objectives need to be optimised simultaneously. In industrial contexts, lexicographic optimisation is often used to solve these problems, requiring the decision‐maker (DM)
