Exploiting Edge Semantics in Job Shop Scheduling Problem With Heterogeneous Graph Transformers

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A heterogeneous graph transformer (HGT) is introduced for reinforcement learning‐based job shop scheduling by explicitly distinguishing precedence and machine‐contention relations through edge‐type‐specific attention. The proposed framework learns richer scheduling representations, improves decision quality over homogeneous graph models, and highlights

Approximation in stochastic integer programming [PDF]

open access: yes
Approximation algorithms are the prevalent solution methods in the field of stochastic programming. Problems in this field are very hard to solve. Indeed, most of the research in this field has concentrated on designing solution methods that approximate ...

Transformation of propositional calculus statements into integer and mixed integer programs: An approach towards automatic reformulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
A systematic procedure for transforming a set of logical statements or logical conditions imposed on a model into an Integer Linear Progamming (ILP) formulation Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) formulation is presented. An ILP stated as a system of linear

Accounting for animal health in efficiency analysis: An application to Swedish dairy farms

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Poor animal health is a central concern in modern livestock production. Despite the necessity to incorporate animal health in efficiency analysis, the theoretical and empirical developments are limited on this subject. This article appropriately characterizes the axiomatic properties of animal health within a production framework.

Joint power control and user grouping mechanism for efficient uplink non‐orthogonal multiple access‐based 5G communication: Utilising the Lèvy‐flight firefly algorithm

open access: yesIET Networks, EarlyView., 2023
We utilise a metaheuristic optimisation method, inspired by nature, called the Lévy‐flight firefly algorithm (LFA), to tackle the power regulation and user grouping in the NOMA systems. Abstract The non‐orthogonal multiple access strategies have shown promise to boost fifth generation and sixth generation wireless networks' spectral efficiency and ...

Hydropower Bidding Using Linearized Start-Ups

open access: yesEnergies, 2017
Hydropower producers must submit bids to electricity market auctions where they state their willingness to produce power. These bids may be determined using a mixed-integer linear stochastic program.

Inventory Replenishment and Transshipment for Distributed Autologous Cell Therapy Manufacturing Networks

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autologous cell therapy (AuCT) manufacturing networks must balance two competing objectives: reducing cost and improving patient access to time‐sensitive therapy. This study compares three AuCT manufacturing network designs: a centralized network with a single manufacturing facility, a coordinated point‐of‐care (POC) network in which POCs can ...

Operations Research‐Based Formalisation and Design of Sustainable Reverse Logistics for E‐Waste Supply Chains

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study demonstrates how a profitable, lean, and environmentally responsible e‐waste reverse logistics system can be designed using integrated Operations Research (OR) techniques. Addressing the growing urgency of responsible consumption (UN SDG 12) and the projected rise of the e‐waste sector to USD 137.60 billion by 2029, the research ...
