Building Blocks as Experiences in Dynamic Capacitated Arc Routing Problems
CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The dynamic capacitated arc routing problem (DCARP) aims to update the service paths of vehicles in the capacitated arc routing problem when uncertain factors deteriorate the current schedule of vehicles' services. A DCARP scenario comprises a series of DCARP instances that share similarities with each other. Therefore, optimisation experience

A matheuristic for the traveling salesman problem with positional consistency constraints
International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract We propose a matheuristic for the traveling salesman problem with positional consistency constraints, where we seek to generate a set of routes with minimum total cost, in which the nodes visited in more than one route (consistent nodes) must occupy the same relative position in all routes.

Memetics of the Computer Universe Based on the Quran
Journal of Software Engineering and Applications, 2010 The emerging concept of computer universe has the potential to bring about a radical change in our perception of the world. Energy is word of God that carries His commands. It derives its properties in accordance with the divine instructions immanent in it. Memetics is the science of information carried by the entity called energy.

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.

The Discursive Construction of Finnish Nationality on Twitch Esports Chat
Nations and Nationalism, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study explores how esports audiences discursively construct Finnish nationality when spectating games of Counter‐Strike: Global Offensive during a major international tournament. The largest esports tournament broadcasts can attract tens or hundreds of thousands of viewers, who participate in the public debate surrounding the matches.

Production routing decisions in a two‐echelon supply chain with multiple delivery modes
International Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 3385-3421, September 2026.Abstract We study an original two‐echelon production routing problem with multiple delivery modes (2E‐PRP‐MDM). In the first echelon, the primary production facility is tasked with satisfying the demands of two distinct entities: a set of warehouses and a set of customers through direct shipments. In the second echelon, warehouses become delivery hubs,

Hepatocyte BDNF Acts as a Novel Immune Checkpoint to Restrain TLR4‐Mediated Acute Hepatitis
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.This study identifies hepatocyte‐derived BDNF as an endogenous TLR4 antagonist that alleviates acute hepatitis. BDNF is downregulated in hepatocytes via REST‐mediated transcriptional repression during ALI/ALF. Mechanistically, BDNF binds to TLR4 on macrophages to suppress inflammation.

Journal of Sociolinguistics, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 255-267, June 2026.ABSTRACT Sociolinguistic research has long documented the appropriation of African American Vernacular English (AAVE) across media including film, music and advertising. In this article, we add to this body of work by exploring the digital recontextualisation of a subset of AAVE features as ‘TikTok/internet language’.
