Integrated care pathways, a fine-grained form of medical guideline including the explicit recording of any deviation, or ‘variance’, have been perceived by some as overly prescriptive, limiting clinical freedom and promoting ‘cookbook medicine’. Howe... Read More about Variance analysis as practice-based evidence.

Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) is a recently invented metaheuristic to use in solving combinatorial optimization problems in which a systematic change of neighborhood with a local search is carried out. However, as happens with other meta-heurist... Read More about Sequential and parallel variable neighborhood search algorithms for job shop scheduling.
