Group elevator scheduling is an NP-hard sequential decision-making problem with unbounded state spaces and substantial uncertainty. Decision-theoretic reasoning plays a surprisingly limited role in fielded systems. A new opportunity for…
In a facility with front room and back room operations, it is useful to switch workers between the rooms in order to cope with changing customer demand. Assuming stochastic customer arrival and service times, we seek a policy for switching…
Research on container loading problems has been proved effective in increasing the filling rate of containers in different practical situations. However, the broader logistic context might pressure the loading process, leading to…
Previous research works have endorsed the use of delays and clock skews for detecting intrusions or fingerprinting ECUs on the CAN bus. Similar techniques have been also proposed for establishing a time-covert cryptographic authentication…
The paper represents an algorithm for planning safe and optimal routes for transport facilities with unrestricted movement direction that travel within areas with obstacles. Paper explains the algorithm using a ship as an example of such a…
Efficient data access in High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems is essential to the performance of intensive computing tasks. Traditional optimizations of the I/O stack aim to improve peak performance but are often workload specific and…
In this paper we present our ideas for conducting a cost benefit analysis by using three different methods: scenario analysis, decision trees and simulation. Then we introduce our case study and examine these methods in a real world…
A conceptual design of a launch vehicle involves the optimization of trajectory and stages considering its launch operations. This process encompasses various disciplines, such as structural design, aerodynamics, propulsion systems, flight…
In this paper we first contribute a large scale online study (N=400) to better understand aesthetic perception of aerial video. The results indicate that it is paramount to optimize smoothness of trajectories across all keyframes. However,…
To mitigate ATFM delay, different approaches have been proposed so far which can be categorized into strategic and tactical domains. The strategical techniques mainly concern airport slot allocation and for the tactical domain, the ATFM…
In this paper, scheduling problems of aircraft minimizing the total delays on a same runway and on dual runways are studied. In contrast to the algorithms based on mixed-integer optimization models in existing works, where the optimality…
We design an optimal group boarding method using a stochastic cellular automata model for passenger movements, which is extended by a virus transmission approach. Furthermore, a new mathematical model is developed to determine an…
This paper presents a safety-assured arrival-scheduling framework for Urban Air Mobility (UAM) corridor operations. We propose an analytical method to compute a sufficient ETA gap at Constrained Waypoints (CWPs) that guarantees longitudinal…
A number of authentication protocols have been proposed recently, where at least some part of the authentication is performed during a phase, lasting $n$ rounds, with no error correction. This requires assigning an acceptable threshold for…
It is shown in this work that the average individual egress time and other performance indicators for egress of people from a building can be improved under certain circumstances if counterflow occurs. The circumstances include widely…
The potential of integrating public transit with ridesharing includes shorter travel time for commuters and higher occupancy rate of personal vehicles and public transit ridership. In this paper, we describe a centralized transit system…
We study the matching of jobs to workers in a queue, e.g. a ridesharing platform dispatching drivers to pick up riders at an airport. Under FIFO dispatching, the heterogeneity in trip earnings incentivizes drivers to cherry-pick, increasing…
As the effort to scale up existing quantum hardware proceeds, it becomes necessary to schedule quantum gates in a way that minimizes the number of operations. There are three constraints that have to be satisfied: the order or dependency of…
Service industries, such as ports, are attentive to their standards, a smooth service flow and economic viability. Cost benefit analysis has proven itself as a useful tool to support this type of decision making; it has been used by…
In this paper we study a facility location problem in the plane in which a single point (facility) and a rapid transit line (highway) are simultaneously located in order to minimize the total travel time of the clients to the facility,…
