Rather than directly considering the queuing delay of data, this memo focuses on reducing the delay that congestion signals experience within a queue management algorithm, which can be greater than the delay that the data itself experiences…
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly employed for numerous public and civil applications, such as goods delivery, medicine, surveillance, and telecommunications. For the latter, UAVs with onboard communication equipment may help…
We discuss surveillance with multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) that minimize idleness (the time between consecutive visits of sensing locations) and constrain latency (the time between capturing data at a sensing location and its…
Horizontal collaboration between operators can save traffic operation costs, a concept that has been particularly validated in the logistics field. Due to the increasing transportation demand and the introduction of charging times for…
Climate change compels a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, yet vehicular traffic still contributes significantly to the emission of air pollutants. Hence, in this paper we focus on the optimization of traffic flow while simultaneously…
The IEEE 802.11 backoff algorithm is very important for controlling system throughput over contentionbased wireless networks. For this reason, there are many studies on wireless network performance focus on developing backoff algorithms.…
Flight delays due to holding maneuvers are a critical and costly phenomenon in aviation, driven by the need to manage air traffic congestion and ensure safety. Holding maneuvers occur when aircraft are instructed to circle in designated…
Delivering hard delay guarantees over packet networks is increasingly important to applications ranging from automotive systems, avionics, industrial control, etc. Traffic control and schedulers play an essential role in enforcing such…
Traffic prediction plays a crucial role in alleviating traffic congestion which represents a critical problem globally, resulting in negative consequences such as lost hours of additional travel time and increased fuel consumption.…
Oil spills represent a severe threat, making early-stage thickness estimation crucial for guiding remediation efforts. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are an attractive platform for environmental monitoring. However, due to their limited…
This paper investigates the latter scenario of individual emergency alerts in airports by applying two existing benchmark delay tolerant network protocols and evaluating their performance of delivery ratio and latency. First, the paper…
With the forecast increase in air traffic demand over the next decades, it is imperative to develop tools to provide traffic flow managers with the information required to support decision making. In particular, decision-support tools for…
Reducing air pollution, such as CO2 and PM2.5 emissions, is one of the most important issues for many countries worldwide. Selecting an environmentally friendly transport mode can be an effective approach of individuals to reduce air…
With the advent of Industry 4.0 technologies in the last decade, airports have undergone digitalisation to capitalise on the purported benefits of these technologies such as improved operational efficiency and passenger experience. The…
Ramp metering is one of the most effective tools to combat traffic congestion. In this paper, we present a ramp metering policy for a network of freeways with arbitrary number of on- and off-ramps, merge, and diverge junctions. The proposed…
Commercial aviation is one of the biggest contributors towards climate change. We propose to reduce environmental impact of aviation by considering solutions that would reduce the flight time. Specifically, we first consider improving winds…
Accurately forecasting flight departure delays is essential for improving operational efficiency and mitigating the cascading disruptions that propagate through tightly coupled aircraft rotations. Traditional machine learning approaches…
The rapid urbanization and increasing traffic have serious social, economic, and environmental impact on metropolitan areas worldwide. It is of a great importance to understand the complex interplay of road networks and traffic conditions.…
The effect of burstiness in complex networks has received considerable attention. In particular, its effect on temporal distance and delays in the air transportation system is significant owing to their huge impact on our society.…
An important passenger service area that has an impact on passenger satisfaction and airport revenue is the check-in counters. The check-in counter allocation problem consists of allocating adjacent counters to airlines at an airport and…
