Using a longitudinal focus group methodology to measure the value and impact of public libraries (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Appleton, L., Duff, A. S., Hall, H., & Raeside, R. (2019). Using a longitudinal focus group methodology to measure the value and impact of public libraries. In Conference Proceedings (484-492)

Introduction There is a general acceptance that public libraries contribute to ‘community’, and at least have the potential to have a very positive impact on civil society. (Varheim, 2007). This ‘impact’ is longitudinal, or ongoing, in that library... Read More about Using a longitudinal focus group methodology to measure the value and impact of public libraries.

A similarity-based neighbourhood search for enhancing the balance exploration–exploitation of differential evolution (2019)
Journal Article
Segredo, E., Lalla-Ruiz, E., Hart, E., & Voß, S. (2020). A similarity-based neighbourhood search for enhancing the balance exploration–exploitation of differential evolution. Computers and Operations Research, 117, Article 104871. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cor.2019.104871

The success of search-based optimisation algorithms depends on appropriately balancing exploration and exploitation mechanisms during the course of the search. We introduce a mechanism that can be used with Differential Evolution (de) algorithms to a...
