AN OPTIMIZATION VIA SIMULATION APPROACH FOR THE PREEMPTIVE AND NON-PREEMPTIVE MULTI-MODE RESOURCE-CONSTRAINED PROJECT SCHEDULING PROBLEMS

An Optimization via Simulation approach for the preemptive and non-preemptive multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problems

In this paper a novel PCB modelling and solving method has been developed to address the so-called resource constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) where project tasks have multiple modes and also the preemption of activities are allowed.To solve this NP-hard problem, a new general optimization via simulation (OvS) approach has been develope

Modeling of Self-Assembled Peptide Nanotubes and Determination of Their Chirality Sign Based on Dipole Moment Calculations

The chirality quantification is of great importance in structural biology, where the differences in proteins twisting can provide essentially different physiological effects.However, this aspect of the chirality is still poorly studied for helix-like supramolecular structures.In this work, a method PCB for chirality quantification based on the calc

Deciphering the Mechanism of Gilteritinib Overcoming Lorlatinib Resistance to the Double Mutant I1171N/F1174I in Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is validated as a therapeutic molecular target in multiple malignancies, such as non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).However, the feasibility of targeted therapies exerted by ALK inhibitors is inevitably hindered owing to drug resistance.The emergence of clinically acquired drug mutations has become a major challenge
