Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuay Crane Scheduling in Container Terminals Using a Hybrid Genetic AlgorithmAidi Sanaa, Torbi Imane, Mazouzi MohamedContainer terminals are crucial nodes within the global supply chain, playing a vital role in the efficient movement of goods. Effective scheduling of Quay Cranes (QCs) is a key factor in maximizing port productivity and minimizing delays. This research investigates the Quay Crane Scheduling Problem (QCSP) using a Hybrid Genetic Algorithm (HGA). The proposed HGA method combines the exploratory power … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 26 Dec 2024 · 6,007 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Framework for Computerized Progress Feedback in Tertiary EducationAnnette van der Merwe, Tiny du Toit, Hennie KrugerThe dawn of democracy in South Africa in 1994 has resulted in challenges in many fields, especially in education. University enrolment rates are high and the output quality of school learners in general is delicate which threatens the graduate quality of tertiary institutions. Contrary to rising student enrolments, the attrition rates have not improved. One contributing factor is the lack … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 28 Mar 2020 · 6,943 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractONCODIAG Select and Test (ST) Algorithm: An Approximate Clinical Reasoning Model for Diagnosing and Monitoring Breast CancerO.N. Oyelade, A.A. Obiniyi, S.B. JunaiduClinical reasoning involves coordinated thinking strategies targeted at gathering and analyzing relevant information to arrive at a high-quality clinical solution to patients' medical problems. The correctness and proper choice of clinical reasoning approach chosen by a clinician or machine affect the accuracy and acceptability of the diagnosis; moreover, another challenge that usually surfaces during clinical reasoning is the burden of … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 22 Feb 2020 · 8,936 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
