This paper presents AIRS, a day-of-operations disruption-recovery system. AIRS.ACR models integrated aircraft-crew recovery on a Time-Space Network (TSN) and solves a mixed-integer linear program (MILP) that enforces rotation continuity,…

Making decisions about the structure of a future military fleet is a challenging task. Several issues need to be considered such as the existence of multiple competing objectives and the complexity of the operating environment. A particular…

Crew Pairing Optimization aims at generating a set of flight sequences (crew pairings), covering all flights in an airline's flight schedule, at minimum cost, while satisfying several legality constraints. CPO is critically important for…

We study the single machine scheduling problem with the objective to minimize the total weight of late jobs. It is assumed that the processing times of jobs are not exactly known at the time when a complete schedule must be dispatched.…

This paper considers an opportunistic scheduling problem over a renewal system. A controller observes a random event at the beginning of each renewal frame and then chooses an action in response to the event, which affects the duration of…

This work focuses on exact methods for a Simultaneous Vehicle Routing and Crew Scheduling Problem in long-haul transport. Pickup-and-delivery requests with time windows must be fullfiled over a multi-day planning horizon. Unlike some…

Demand response (DR) is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly approach for mitigating the uncertainties in renewable energy integration by taking advantage of the flexibility of customers' demands. However, existing DR programs…

Fair resource allocation is undoubtedly a crucial factor in customer satisfaction in several scheduling scenarios. This is especially apparent in repetitive scheduling models where the same set of clients repeatedly submits jobs on a daily…

This paper addresses the problem of scheduling non-preemptive tasks with release jitter and execution time variation on a uniprocessor. We show that the schedulability analysis based on schedule graph generation, proposed by Nasri and…

This paper considers a recoverable robust single-machine scheduling problem under polyhedral uncertainty with the objective of minimising the total flow time. In this setting, a decision-maker must determine a first-stage schedule subject…

Motion planners for mobile robots in unknown environments face the challenge of simultaneously maintaining both robustness against unmodeled uncertainties and persistent feasibility of the trajectory-finding problem. That is, while dealing…

One of the major limitations for the employment of model-based planning and scheduling in practical applications is the need of costly re-planning when an incongruence between the observed reality and the formal model is encountered during…

This paper presents a novel methodology to develop scheduling algorithms. The scheduling problem is phrased as a control problem, and control-theoretical techniques are used to design a scheduling algorithm that meets specific requirements.…

Nurse rostering is a complex scheduling problem that affects hospital personnel on a daily basis all over the world. This paper presents a new component-based approach with adaptive perturbations, for a nurse scheduling problem arising at a…

This study investigates real-time assignment decisions for extraboard transit operators, who are responsible for covering open work due to unexpected events such as driver absenteeism. Efficient usage of extraboard operators is critical as…

We revisit a classical scheduling model to incorporate modern trends in data center networks and cloud services. Addressing some key challenges in the allocation of shared resources to user requests (jobs) in such settings, we consider the…

The manpower scheduling problem is a critical research field in the resource management area. Based on the existing studies on scheduling problem solutions, this paper transforms the manpower scheduling problem into a combinational…

The conventional design of real-time approaches depends heavily on the normal performance of systems and it often becomes incapacitated in dealing with catastrophic scenarios effectively. There are several investigations carried out to…

We formulate and study a fundamental search and detection problem, Schedule Optimization, motivated by a variety of real-world applications, ranging from monitoring content changes on the web, social networks, and user activities to…

Unscheduled maintenance has contributed to longer downtime for vehicles and increased costs for Logistic Readiness Squadrons (LRSs) in the Air Force. When vehicles are in need of repair outside of their scheduled time, depending on their…
