Purpose: This paper aims to develop an algorithm to study the impact of dynamic resource disruption on project makespan and provide a suitable resource disruption ratio for various complex industrial and emergency projects. Design/methodology/approach: This paper addresses the RCPSP in dynamic environments, which assumes resources will be disrupted randomly, that is, the information about resource disruption is not known in advance. To this end, a reactive scheduling model is proposed for the case of random dynamic disruptions of resources. To solve the reactive scheduling model, a hybrid genetic algorithm with a variable neighborhood search is proposed. Findings: The results obtained on the PSLIB instances prove the performance advantage of the algorithm; through sensitivity analysis, it can be obtained, the project makespan increases exponentially as the number of disruptions increase. Furthermore, if more than 50% of the project's resources are randomly disrupted, the project makespan will be significantly impacted. Originality/value: The paper focuses on the impact of dynamic resource disruptions on project makespan. Few studies have considered stochastic, dynamic resource uncertainty. In addition, this research proposes a reasonable scheduling algorithm for the research problem, and the conclusions drawn from the research provide decision support for project managers.

In this article, the author focuses on CyberAll project to encode, store and allow easy retrieval of all of a person's information for personal and professional use. Information is held in multiple formats to increase the likelihood for long-term retrievability. CyberAll archive includes books, CDs, correspondence, transactions, papers, photos and albums, and video; currently held in the Windows file system. The goal of the CyberAll project is to understand the problems of coping with the exponential increase in the amount of information that is becoming part of both personal and professional lives and encode everything and eliminate paper that is used for storage and transmission. There are a plethora of functions that can be invented to facilitate filing, labeling, and retrieval. The author has also used descriptive file names to aid retrieval. A name might include subject, organization, keywords and a date. It is forecasted that within the next decade personal computers will be capable of storing a terabyte of information on an individual machine. The author concludes that a system such as CyberAll could quite possibly be a killer application for personal computers.

The Workshop on Learning and Evaluating Recommendations with Impressions (LERI) was held in conjunction with the 17th ACM Conference on Recommender Systems (RecSys 2023). The program included a keynote, a panel discussion and 7 paper presentations. The proceedings of the workshop are available online.1 The LERI workshop focused on all aspects related to the use of impressions for recommendation with the aim to bring the community together and share experience and perspectives. Recommender systems typically rely on past user interactions as the primary source of information for making predictions. Impressions are an important source of information that indicate the items displayed on screen when the user interacted (or not) with them, and have the potential to impact the field of recommender systems in several ways. Impressions present new research questions and opportunities, but also bring new challenges. Date: 19 September 2023. Website: https://recsyspolimi.github.io/leri2023/. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Annually, one in five childbearing persons in the United States experiences a mental health or substance use disorder before, during or after pregnancy, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) stated in an Aug. 1 news release. To ensure that psychiatrists and mental health clinicians are best positioned to respond to this need, the APA, with support from the CDC [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] Foundation, has released a series of educational materials for addressing perinatal mental health in its Psychiatric Toolkit. The toolkit includes eight fact sheets for clinicians and patients, a white paper, and a four‐part webinar series covering this understudied and underserved area of mental health. These materials can be accessed at APA's Perinatal Mental Health website (https://www.psychiatry.org/psychiatrists/practice/professional‐interests/women‐s‐mental‐health/maternal‐mental‐health‐toolkit). The white paper calls for revisions to academic and continuing education curricula to improve competency and confidence within the behavioral care workforce for treating this population. It examines the care of vulnerable populations, raising such issues as cultural competency and lack of access. This "Mental Health Needs Assessment in the Management of Perinatal Psychiatric Disorders" is supported by the CDC and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as part of a financial assistance award totaling $447,209 funded by the CDC/HHS.
