Real-time vehicle dispatching operations in traditional car-sharing systems is an already computationally challenging scheduling problem. Electrification only exacerbates the computational difficulties as charge level constraints come into…
When multiple users share a common link in direct transmission, packet loss and network collision may occur due to the simultaneous arrival of traffics at the source node. To tackle this problem, users may resort to an indirect path: the…
A common situation occurring when dealing with multimedia traffic is having large data frames fragmented into smaller IP packets, and having these packets sent independently through the network. For real-time multimedia traffic, dropping…
With the development of e-commerce during the Covid-19 pandemic, one of the major challenges for many parcel logistics companies is to design reliable and flexible scheduling algorithms to meet uncertainties of parcel arrivals as well as…
Automated recommendations can nowadays be found on many e-commerce platforms, and such recommendations can create substantial value for consumers and providers. Often, however, not all recommendable items have the same profit margin, and…
The efficiency of current cargo screening processes at sea and air ports is largely unknown as few benchmarks exists against which they could be measured. Some manufacturers provide benchmarks for individual sensors but we found no…
Last-mile logistics is regarded as an essential yet highly expensive component of parcel logistics. In dense urban environments, this is partially caused by inherent inefficiencies due to traffic congestion and the disparity and…
Supply chain management is an integrated approach for planning and controlling materials, information, and finances as they move in a process which begins from suppliers and ends with customers in forward approach. As distribution network…
Since the rising of the takeaway ordering platform, the M platform has taken the lead in the industry with its high-quality service. The increasing order volume leads the competition between platforms to reduce the distribution cost, which…
We consider the problem of supply and demand balancing that is stated as a minimization problem for the total expected revenue function describing the behavior of both consumers and suppliers. In the considered market model we assume that…
The impact of globalization and worldwide competition has forced firms to modify their strategies towards a real time operation with respect to customer's requirements. This behaviour, together with the communication possibilities offered…
For a provider of a Content Delivery Network (CDN), the location selection of mirror servers is a complex optimization problem. Generally, the objective is to place the nodes centralized such that all customers have convenient access to the…
In this paper we consider several problems concerning packet routing in distributed systems. Each problem is formulated using terms from Graph Theory and for each problem we present efficient, novel, algorithmic techniques for computing…
Analyzing big data in a highly dynamic environment becomes more and more critical because of the increasingly need for end-to-end processing of this data. Modern data flows are quite complex and there are not efficient, cost-based,…
We present an efficient routing approach for delivering packets in complex networks. On delivering a message from a node to a destination, a node forwards the message to a neighbor by estimating the waiting time along the shortest path from…
Consolidation of loose packages into transport units is a fundamental activity offered by logistics service-providers. Moving the transport units instead of loose packages is faster (with one movement only, multiple packages are loaded…
The problem of efficiently delivering data within networks is very important nowadays, especially in the context of the large volumes of data which are being produced each year and of the increased data access needs of the users. Efficient…
Supply chain management encompasses various processes including various conventional logistics activities, and various other processes These processes are supported -- to a certain limit -- by coordination and integration mechanisms which…
The increasing demand for fast and cost effective last mile delivery solutions has catalyzed significant advancements in drone based logistics. This research describes the development of an AI integrated drone delivery system, focusing on…
Contemporary ways of doing business are heavily dependent on the e-Commerce/e-Business paradigm. The highest priority of an e-Commerce Web site's management is to assure pertinent Quality-of-Service (QoS) levels of their Web services…
