Abstract Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks are currently experiencing a second youth in terms of research interest as well providing benefits to our society. Clearly, this has been fostered by the wide range applications that have become actually feasible thanks pervasive and increasing presence smartphones, drones, sensors other small devices with communication sensing capability. Aiming deploy solutions...

As shown in recent researches, the costs in distribution systems may be excessive if routes are ignored when locating depots. The location routing problem (LRP) overcomes this drawback by simultaneously tackling location and routing decisions. This paper presents a new metaheuristic to solve the LRP with capacitated routes and depots. A first phase executes a GRASP, based on an extended and ran...

Purpose Commonly used rent indices are based on average developments or expert opinions. Such often suffer from compositional biases low data coverage. The purpose of this paper is to overcome these challenges using the authors' approach. Design/methodology/approach authors construct a quality-adjusted index for office market in Oslo detailed 14,171 rental contracts. Findings show that can have...

Recently, geographic routing in wireless networks has gained attention due to several advantages of location information. Location information eliminates the necessity to set up and maintain explicit routes, which reduces communication overhead and routing table size. These advantages allow scalability especially in dynamic and unstable wireless networks. However, no matter which technologies o...
