In this paper, we support our that there is no ~ search heuristic that performs more efficiently than others for all problems or in all domains. The paper presents three diIFerent domaln-independent search heuristics of increasing complexity. We run PRODIGY with these heuristics in a series of artificial domms (introduced i...

Allocation is geographical and based on individual/regional centre policies. We have evaluated the short term outcomes of paired kidneys from DCD donors subject to this allocation policy. METHODS Retrospective analysis of paired renal transplants from DCD's from 2002 ...
