Reviewer assignment algorithms and systems have emerged as critical tools in modern academic publishing and research evaluation, ensuring that submitted manuscripts are matched with expert reviewers ...

An example of the quadratic assignment problem (QAP) is the facility location problem, in which n facilities are assigned, at minimum cost, to n sites. Between each pair of facilities, there is a ...

A separable assignment problem (SAP) is defined by a set of bins and a set of items to pack in each bin; a value, f, for assigning item j to bin i; and a separate packing constraint for each bin—i.e., ...

Dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) models are integral to modern transportation research, offering frameworks to predict and optimise the flow of vehicles over time within complex networks. These models ...

Right now, quantum computers are small and error-prone compared to where they'll likely be in a few years. Even within those limitations, however, there have been regular claims that the hardware can ...
