Hyper-heuristics. (2005)
Book Chapter
Ross, P. (2005). Hyper-heuristics. In E. Burke, & G. Kendall (Eds.), Search Methodologies: Introductory Tutorials in Optimization and Decision Support Techniques (529-556). Springer-Verlag

This chapter introduces and overviews an emerging methodology in search and optimisation. One of the key aims of these new approaches, which have been termed hyper-heuristics, is to raise the level of generality at which optimisation systems can oper... Read More about Hyper-heuristics..

The Application of Mathematical Programming Approaches to Estimating Container Port Production Efficiency (2005)
Journal Article
Cullinane, K., Song, D.-W., & Wang, T. (2005). The Application of Mathematical Programming Approaches to Estimating Container Port Production Efficiency. Journal of Productivity Analysis, 24(1), 73-92. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11123-005-3041-9

Container terminal production is both an important and complicated element in the contemporary global economy. This paper aims to evaluate the efficiency of the world’s most important container ports and terminals using the two alternative techniques...

Wavelet analysis of the ECG: A review (2005)
Journal Article
Addison, P. (2005). Wavelet analysis of the ECG: A review. Physiological Measurement, 26(5), 155-199. https://doi.org/10.1088/0967-3334/26/5/R01

The wavelet transform has emerged over recent years as a powerful time–frequency analysis and signal coding tool favoured for the interrogation of complex nonstationary signals. Its application to biosignal processing has been at the forefront of the... Read More about Wavelet analysis of the ECG: A review.

Eddy diffusion in the sea: reinterpreting an early experiment. (2005)
Journal Article
Summers, D. (2005). Eddy diffusion in the sea: reinterpreting an early experiment. Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 461(2058), 1811-1827. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2004.1433

Over half a century has passed since L. F. Richardson and Henry Stommel conducted their experiment from the pier at Blairmore, Scotland. The relative separations of pairs of immersed floats (made of parsnip) were measured as these became passively tr... Read More about Eddy diffusion in the sea: reinterpreting an early experiment..
