This chapter is an introduction to the history of “modern” terrorism, especially how different groups evolved over time. It begins with Narodnaya Volya in Russia in the latter half of the nineteenth century and covers terror groups that were active in 2010s and still active as of 2021. Foll...
5]. It is due to its objective nature that one could claim that objective well-being could be measured in terms of GDP. However, it must reflect both people’s material living conditions and the quality of
The model concentrates on pre-disaster scenarios in uncertainty. The provided model was implemented in an actual scenario in one of the Philippines’ provinces and solved using Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization (MOPSO), which is also contrasted with Multi-Objective Simulated Annealing (MOSA)...

Over the past several years, port congestion has become a severe problem, as ships are often not able to reach a series of ports based on the designed schedule, which induces changes in the schedules associated with port operations. Moreover, customers c

Most notably, the current literature falls short in utilizing advanced optimization techniques to inform transportation GHG emission reduction policies. To this end, this study demonstrates a novel application of deterministic multi-objective integer optimization (MIO) problem to the realm of GHG emission...
From this perspective, a multi-objective linear optimization model is used to explore the trade-offs between conflicting objectives in a rice-growing area in Northern Italy. The model returns the optimal allocation of land subject to three different irrigation strategies, as those previously performed...
