A Randomly Guided Firefly Algorithm Based on Elitist Strategy and its Applications
IEEE Access, 2019 Firefly algorithm (FA) is one of the swarm intelligence algorithms, which is proposed by Yang in 2008. The standard FA has some disadvantages, such as high computational time complexity, slow convergence speed and so on.

Optimal pricing in ride-share platforms
Cogent Engineering, 2023 Ride-share platforms are contemporary businesses that match passengers with drivers, unlike taxis that can be hailed from the street. In the literature, the problem of optimizing the operations of such companies is mostly considered in static settings ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Knowing how proteases recognise preferred substrates facilitates matching proteases to applications. The S1′ pocket of protease EA1 directs cleavage to the N‐terminal side of hydrophobic residues, particularly leucine. The S1′ pocket of thermolysin differs from EA's at only one position (leucine in place of phenylalanine), which decreases cleavage ...

Feedback stabilization of semilinear heat equations
Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2003 This paper is concerned with the internal and boundary stabilization of the steady-state solutions to quasilinear heat equations via internal linear feedback controllers provided by an LQ control problem associated with the linearized equation.

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

Optimal inventory management and order book modeling * [PDF]
ESAIM: Proceedings and Surveys, 2019 We model the behavior of three agent classes acting dynamically in a limit order book of a financial asset. Namely, we consider market makers (MM), high-frequency trading (HFT) firms, and institutional brokers (IB).

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Global static stability and its relation to gravity waves in the middle atmosphere
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2020 The global atmospheric static stability (N2) in the middle atmosphere and its relation to gravity waves (GWs) were investigated by using the temperature profiles measured by the Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry (SABER ...
