“Gain of function” (GoF) research refers to genetic modification that deliberately enhances the abilities of an organism — often a virus or bacterium — to study how such changes affect its function, ...

In this study, we propose an exact method for optimizing a linear function over the efficient set of a multi-objective transportation problem (MOTP). This type of problem arises when a decision maker ...

For tasks requiring sub-micrometer precision — such as alignment, adjustment, or fine positioning — PI’s M-235, L-220, and M-230 series linear actuators deliver reliable, high-performance motion.

Practical word problems are often considered one of the most complex parts of elementary school mathematics. They require students to understand the context of a math problem, identify what the ...

In Central Falls, R.I., teachers are trying new strategies that move away from focusing on “key words,” the traditional, simplistic approach that often leads younger students astray CENTRAL FALLS, R.I ...

Integer linear programming can help find the answer to a variety of real-world problems. Now researchers have found a much faster way to do it. The traveling salesperson problem is one of the oldest ...

ABSTRACT: This paper presents a new dimension reduction strategy for medium and large-scale linear programming problems. The proposed method uses a subset of the original constraints and combines two ...
