On the Complexity of the Paper Selection Problem for the Italian Research Quality Evaluation (VQR)

Networks, EarlyView.
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 ...

An Improved Tabu Search Algorithm for Parallel Task Scheduling on Identical Machines

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science
Aiming at the parallel task scheduling problem (P |sizej|Cmax), which requires multiple machines to work collaboratively, this paper proposes an improved tabu search algorithm to overcome the shortcoming of traditional methods being prone to falling into

Population-Based Redundancy Control in Genetic Algorithms: Enhancing Max-Cut Optimization

Mathematics
The max-cut problem is a well-known topic in combinatorial optimization, with a wide range of practical applications. Given its NP-hard nature, heuristic approaches—such as genetic algorithms, tabu search, and harmony search—have been extensively ...

The Single Picker Routing Problem with Scattered Storage in Parallel‐Aisle Warehouses With Multiple Blocks

Networks, EarlyView.
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.

Time-Windowed Vehicle Routing Problem: Tabu Search Algorithm Approach

Advances in Distributed Computing and Artificial Intelligence Journal, 2022
Vehicle routing problem (VRP); it is defined as the problem of planning the best distribution or collection routes of the vehicles assigned to serve the scattered centers from one or more warehouses in order to meet the demands of the customers.

A Supervised Learning Framework for Accelerating Solvers and Metaheuristics in Routing Problems

Networks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Routing problems such as the traveling salesman problem (TSP) and the capacitated vehicle routing problem (CVRP) are computationally challenging due to the exponential growth of their feasible solution spaces with increasing instance size.

A 3D Offline Packing Algorithm considering Cargo Orientation and Stability

International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks, 2023
The box packing problem can be generalized as placing a batch of cargos with a specified number of different physical characteristics into a specified box. Suppose that a batch of cuboid cargos of different sizes are to be loaded into a batch of boxes of

Camels as a Climate‐Resilient Linchpin for Sustainable Development in Global Drylands

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Camels represent a significant, yet underutilized, asset for advancing integrated sustainable development in the world's expanding drylands. Previous reviews have examined camels' physiology, milk composition, or pastoral systems in isolation; this review examines their potential as a climate‐resilient linchpin for food systems by synthesizing
