“It Is Vital That We Should Not Keep It to Ourselves”: The Rats of Tobruk Association and the Siege of Tobruk in Australian National Memory

Australian Journal of Politics &History, EarlyView.
The siege of Tobruk is one of the most well‐known Australian actions of the Second World War, enjoying special attention on Anzac Day. Its elevation within Australian national memory is by no means accidental. Rather, it is the result of decades of lobbying by the Rats of Tobruk Association (ROTA), which positioned veterans of the siege as the ...

Navigating Acceptance of Paradoxical Tensions: A Self‐Efficacy Perspective on Paradox and Goal Setting Theories

Business Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how individuals accept and navigate paradoxical tensions within a sustainability context, using a multiple case study of five Italian companies implementing circularity measurement tools. By exploring the interplay between self‐efficacy and acceptance of paradoxical tensions, drawing upon the Goal Setting and Paradox ...

‘Good Enough’: The Use of Satisficing in the Design of Disruptive Innovation in Emerging Economies

Creativity and Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While design has been acknowledged as a fundamental driver of innovation, questions remain about how design affects disruptive innovation from the perspective of consumer perceptions. Drawing from Simon's insights of bounded rationality and satisficing applied within the technology acceptance model (TAM), we propose an integrated, customer ...

Understanding Visitor Path Choice and Enhancing Wayfinding in Museums: A Critical Review of a Century of Research

Curator: The Museum Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The paths taken by visitors in museums influence what they see, do, learn, and experience. Poorly designed museums can lead to missed goals and opportunities. In this article, I critically review visitor studies published since the 1930s to evaluate explanations for visitor path choice in museums, namely, the location and attractiveness of ...

Production routing decisions in a two‐echelon supply chain with multiple delivery modes

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We study an original two‐echelon production routing problem with multiple delivery modes (2E‐PRP‐MDM). In the first echelon, the primary production facility is tasked with satisfying the demands of two distinct entities: a set of warehouses and a set of customers through direct shipments. In the second echelon, warehouses become delivery hubs,

A matheuristic for the traveling salesman problem with positional consistency constraints

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We propose a matheuristic for the traveling salesman problem with positional consistency constraints, where we seek to generate a set of routes with minimum total cost, in which the nodes visited in more than one route (consistent nodes) must occupy the same relative position in all routes.

The Metric Travelling Salesman Problem: The Experiment on Pareto-optimal Algorithms

Труды Института системного программирования РАН, 2018
The Metric Travelling Salesman Problem is a subcase of the Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP), where the triangle inequality holds. It is a key problem in combinatorial optimization.

A formulation and a metaheuristic approach for the clustered vehicle routing problem with d‐relaxed priority rule

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates an extension of the vehicle routing problem in which, in addition to minimizing the distance traveled, the sequencing of customer visits is subject to precedence constraints that impose visiting priorities among customers.

Can the Agent with Limited Information Solve Travelling Salesman Problem?

Complexity, 2017
Here, we develop new heuristic algorithm for solving TSP (Travelling Salesman Problem). In our proposed algorithm, the agent cannot estimate tour lengths but detect only a few neighbor sites. Under the circumstances, the agent occasionally ignores the NN
