The time window of feeding

Physiology & Behavior, 1990
This paper contrasts the traditional depletion/repletion model of food intake with a longer-term perspective which focuses on function rather than mechanism. We review naturalistic observations as well as the economic relationships we have discovered in the laboratory by a cost/benefit analysis of feeding in a closed economy.

A Window in Time

Hospital Practice, 1989
Abstract THE SEARCH FOR LIFE’S ORIGINS is one of those quests that animate the spiritual side of our intellectual endeavors. Although we cannot tell at present exactly how life came to be, findings of the past 20 years in geology, biology, meteorology, and astrophysics enable us to pin down with surprising precision the date the ...

The Orienteering Problem with Time Windows

Journal of the Operational Research Society, 1992
Summary: The orienteering problem with time windows, denoted by OPTW, belongs to a class of routeing and scheduling problems that arise in physical distribution. It may be modelled as a problem on a graph. It considers a set of nodes (customers), each with an associated profit and service duration (time window), and a set of arcs, each with an ...

Manpower scheduling with time windows

Proceedings of the 2003 ACM symposium on Applied computing - SAC '03, 2003
In this paper, we propose a manpower allocation model with time windows which is of practical interest to serviceman scheduling operations. Specifically, this problem originates from peculiar port yard scheduling needs where demand is generated from locations in the yard for servicemen who are dispatched from a central point and where the objectives ...

The time windows of the sense of agency

Consciousness and Cognition, 2013
The sense of agency depends on some internal cues that derive from action control, as well as external cues like contextual information and prior information (degree of contingency between an action and is effect). We assessed whether external agency cues are combined with internal agency cues to affect the sense of agency.

Manpower allocation with time windows

Journal of the Operational Research Society, 2004
Summary: We propose a manpower allocation model with time windows which is of practical interest. This model originates from a real-life port manpower allocation problem where demand is generated from locations in the yard for servicemen who are dispatched from a central point and where the objectives are to minimize the number of servicemen used ...

Crossdocking—JIT scheduling with time windows

Journal of the Operational Research Society, 2004
Summary: We study a problem central to crossdocking that aims to eliminate or minimize storage and order picking activity using JIT scheduling. The problem is modelled naturally as a machine scheduling problem. As the problem is NP-hard, and for real-time applications, we designed and implemented two heuristics.

The Rural Postman Problem with time windows

Networks, 2014
The Rural Postman Problem with Time Windows for the undirected case is introduced. The problem occurs in the monitoring of roads for black-ice detection. Different formulations are proposed and tested on sets of instances adapted from the literature. A cutting plane algorithm based on valid inequalities for the Traveling Salesman Problem TSP with Time ...

Time-Windows

2015
A large percentage of computing tasks in our contemporary environment are spatial problems carried out on mobile or spatially distributed computing devices. In this chapter, the authors evaluate if and how the commonly established metaphor of a windowed user interface may be adapted in order to suit contemporary usability needs. The study observes user
