On the Complexity of the Paper Selection Problem for the Italian Research Quality Evaluation (VQR)
ABSTRACT This work addresses the paper selection problem that each Italian university and department faced in the context of the research quality evaluation (VQR) of the Italian university system for the period 2020–2024. Given the set of researchers of a university and their associated papers, the problem consists of selecting a fixed number of ...

ABSTRACT This paper investigates the b$$ b $$‐block single picker routing problem with scattered storage (b$$ b $$‐SPRP‐SS). For a parallel‐aisle warehouse comprising b$$ b $$ blocks, the b$$ b $$‐SPRP‐SS asks for the determination of a picker tour that minimizes travel distance while collecting all articles from a given pick list.

Coverage‐based rarefaction fails to quantify relative species richness
Coverage‐based rarefaction (CBR) is a high‐profile tool for assessing biodiversity that provides relative species richness estimates by leveraging the Good‐Turing index u to interpolate. In contrast to alternatives such as the Shannon and Simpson indices, CBR's main appeal is providing values in units of species. CBR is tested against a series of other

Schiff based derived homogeneous catalysts for ring‐opening terpolymerization
One‐pot synthesis of degradable terpolymers from l‐lactide, propylene oxide and CO₂ using diverse catalysts is described, revealing structure–property relationships for tailored applications in sustainable materials. Abstract In this study, we synthesized and evaluated a series of Schiff base cobalt catalysts for the terpolymerization of propylene ...

Prediction of Prion Proteins in E. coli Based on Bimodal Sequence Characteristics
ABSTRACT Prions are infectious proteins that bear misfolded conformations capable of converting folded states into misfolded aggregates under physiologically relevant conditions. In mammals, prions cause deadly maladies including Creutzfeldt‐Jakob and chronic wasting disease. To date, several prion proteins have been identified in eukaryotes, primarily
