This study seeks to improve the throughput rates for shipping container terminals. In the United States, shipping ports link the domestic economy to global markets and are vital to sustain supply chain flow and economic stability. Maritime…

Nowadays the number of available processing cores within computing nodes which are used in recent clustered environments, are growing up with a rapid rate. Despite this trend, the number of available network interfaces in such computing…

Resource-intensive computations are a major factor that limits the effectiveness of automated machine learning solutions. In the paper, we propose a modular approach that can be used to increase the quality of evolutionary optimization for…

This work proposes an optimal power management strategy for shipboard microgrids equipped with diesel generators and a battery energy storage system. The optimization provides both the unit commitment and the optimal power dispatch of all…

We present an efficient approach to optimising pulse sequences for implementing fast entangling two-qubit gates on trapped ion quantum information processors. We employ a two-phase procedure for optimising gate fidelity, which we…

In this paper we study the problem of optimal layout of an offshore wind farm to minimize the wake effect impacts. Considering the specific requirements of concerned offshore wind farm, we propose an adaptive genetic algorithm (AGA) which…

In this paper, we study Two-way relaying networks well-known for its throughput merits. In particular, we study the fundamental throughput delay trade-off in two-way relaying networks using opportunistic network coding. We characterize the…

This Ph.D. thesis deals with the optimization of several renewable energy resources development as well as the improvement of facilities management in oceanic engineering and airports, using computational hybrid methods belonging to AI to…

It has been widely recognized that the performance of a multi-agent system is highly affected by its organization. A large scale system may have billions of possible ways of organization, which makes it impractical to find an optimal choice…

Warehouse optimization stands as a critical component for enhancing operational efficiency within the industrial sector. By strategically streamlining warehouse operations, organizations can achieve significant reductions in logistical…

Cloud computing is emerging as an important platform for business, personal and mobile computing applications. In this paper, we study a stochastic model of cloud computing, where jobs arrive according to a stochastic process and request…

This paper provides experimental experiences on two local search hybridized genetic algorithms in solving the uncapacitated examination timetabling problem. The proposed two hybrid algorithms use partition and priority based solution…

This paper addresses the optimization of human-robot collaborative work-cells before their physical deployment. Most of the times, such environments are designed based on the experience of the system integrators, often leading to…

The abundance of materials and the development of the economy have led to the flourishing of the logistics industry, but have also caused certain pollution. The research on GVRP (Green vehicle routing problem) for planning vehicle routes…

The dose delivered to the planning target volume by proton beams is highly conformal, sparing organs at risk and normal tissues. New treatment planning systems adapted to spot scanning techniques have been recently proposed to…

This report shows that significant reduction in fuel use could be achieved by the adoption of `free flight' type of trajectories in the Terminal Manoeuvring Area (TMA) of an airport, under the control of an algorithm which optimises the…

We investigate the problem of network utility maximization in multiple gateways wireless mesh networks by considering Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) as the interference model. The aim is a cross layer design that considers…

The talk describes a general approach of a genetic algorithm for multiple objective optimization problems. A particular dominance relation between the individuals of the population is used to define a fitness operator, enabling the genetic…

Autonomous intersection management has the potential to reduce road traffic congestion and energy consumption. To realize this potential, efficient algorithms are needed. However, most existing studies locally optimize one intersection at a…

In an isolated power grid or a micro-grid with a small carbon footprint, the penetration of renewable energy is usually high. In such power grids, energy storage is important to guarantee an uninterrupted and stable power supply for end…
