- This article introduced a novel approach to data-structure traversal that is more customisable than competing approaches. The software package that implements this approach has been downloaded 17,900 times [http://hackage.haskell.org/package/kure]. At the University of Nottingham, Handley and Hutton [DOI: 10.1007/978-3-030-18506-0_6] used the software as the basis for their Improvement Engine. The software also provides the foundations of the HERMIT system [DOI: 10.1145/2887747.2804303], a system which led to a new collaboration between the Universities of Kansas, Illinois and Oxford to develop and implement a novel optimisation technique [DOI: 10.1016/j.scico.2015.09.003].
