D-Wave’s Nonlinear-Program Hybrid Solver: Description and Performance Analysis by Eneko Osaba, Pablo Miranda-Rodriguez

“…This paper describes this solver and evaluates its performance through a benchmark of 45 instances across three combinatorial optimization problems: the Traveling Salesman Problem, the Knapsack Problem, and the Maximum Cut Problem. To facilitate the use of this relatively unexplored solver, we provide details of the implementation used to solve these three optimization problems.…”

Postprocessing Variationally Scheduled Quantum Algorithm for Constrained Combinatorial Optimization Problems by Tatsuhiko Shirai, Nozomu Togawa

“…We apply the proposed method to two constrained NP-hard COPs: the graph partitioning problem and the quadratic knapsack problem. The pVSQA on a simulator shows that a small number of variational parameters is sufficient to achieve a (near-) optimal performance within a predetermined operation time. …”

Azadirachtin in combination with emamectin benzoate and abamectin increases efficacy against brinjal shoot and fruit borer, <i>Leucinodes orbonalis</i> Guenee by Md. Mahi Imam Mollah

“…The insecticides were applied at 7-day intervals using a knapsack sprayer. Though all the insecticides control BSFB, emamectin benzoate 1% + azadirachtin and abamectin 1.8% + azadirachtin were found to be most effective, providing 89.34% and 81.55% shoot infestation reduction, 93.34% and 85.11% fruit infestation reduction (number basis), and 94.91% and 85.27% fruit infestation reduction (weight basis), respectively. …”

Mobile clinics routing and scheduling in the Witzenberg region of South Africa. by Hannah J Callaghan, Linke Potgieter, Nadia Le Roux

“…In phase 2, fairly distributed optimal routes and schedules are designed using a three-stage model that incorporates a multi-vehicle routing problem to determine daily routes, a knapsack problem to establish a fair allocation of these daily routes between different clinics, and another variation on the vehicle routing problem to determine the monthly visit schedule that minimises the distance between the last farm visited on each consecutive day in the case of having to return to a farm the next day. …”
