Several studies on analogical transfer to algebra word problems have demonstrated that adapting solutions learned from worked-examples to non-isomorphic problems of the same type is challenging, and that most instructional ...

One important skill to be developed in future physicists is modelling reality using physics. Problem-solving is the activity most used to teach, learn and assess physics skills at the university level. However, most of the ...

Search is a universal problem-solving method in Artificial Intelligence. Specifically, Heuristic Search algorithms, such as A*, use a heuristic function to guide the search process. The heuristic function allows algorithms ...

Abstract. This paper describes a factorial statistical study that compares the quality of solutions produced by two heuristics: Simulated Annealing (SA) and Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS). These methods are used ...

Firms must strike a delicate balance between the exploitation of well-known business models and the exploration of risky, untested approaches. In this paper, we study financial contracting between an investor and a firm ...
