Stability and protection of the electrical power systems are always of primary concern. Stability can be affected mostly by increase in the load demand. Power grids are overloaded in peak hours so more power generation units are required to…

Wildfires are destructive and inflict massive, irreversible harm to victims' lives and natural resources. Researchers have proposed commissioning unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to provide firefighters with real-time tracking information;…

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)-aided device-todevice (D2D) networks have attracted great interests with the development of 5G/6G communications, while there are several challenges about resource scheduling in UAVs-aided D2D networks. In…

The container relocation problem is a combinatorial optimisation problem aimed at finding a sequence of container relocations to retrieve all containers in a predetermined order by minimising a given objective. Relocation rules (RRs), which…

Utilizing autonomous drones or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has shown great advantages over preceding methods in support of urgent scenarios such as search and rescue (SAR) and wildfire detection. In these operations, search efficiency…

Intense wildfire seasons require critical prioritization decisions to allocate scarce suppression resources over a dispersed geographical area. This paper develops a predictive and prescriptive approach to jointly optimize crew assignments…

In recent years, teams of robot and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have been commissioned by researchers to enable accurate, online wildfire coverage and tracking. While the majority of prior work focuses on the coordination and control of…

Multiprocessors have emerged as a powerful computing means for running realtime applications, especially where a uniprocessor system would not be sufficient enough to execute all the tasks. The high performance and reliability of…

In multi-cloud environment, task scheduling has attracted a lot of attention due to NP-Complete nature of the problem. Moreover, it is very challenging due to heterogeneity of the cloud resources with varying capacities and functionalities.…

Suitably equipped with cameras and sensors, uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be instrumental for wildfire prediction, tracking, and monitoring, provided that uninterrupted connectivity can be guaranteed even if some of the ground access…

Wildfire suppression is a complex task that poses high risks to humans. Using robotic teams for wildfire suppression enhances the safety and efficiency of detecting, monitoring, and extinguishing fires. We propose a control architecture…
