This work addresses the problem of evaluating optimal link capacities of a packet-flow network for the objective of congestion minimization. We present a simple model of packet flow in networks and present a numerical approach to evaluate…
A well-known approach to intradomain traffic engineering consists in finding the set of link weights that minimizes a network-wide objective function for a given intradomain traffic matrix. This approach is inadequate because it ignores a…
In order to increase the resilience of distribution systems against high-impact low-probability (HILP) events, it is important to prioritize assets damaged by these events so that the lost loads, especially sensitive and important loads,…
We present a planning and control framework for physics-based manipulation under uncertainty. The key idea is to interleave robust open-loop execution with closed-loop control. We derive robustness metrics through contraction theory. We use…
With the steady increase in global logistics and freight transport demand, the need for efficient and sustainable intermodal transport systems becomes increasingly important. This study addresses the optimization of container movement by…
Hospital logistics management faces growing pressure from internal operations and external emergencies, with artificial intelligence (AI) holding untapped potential to boost its resilience. This study explores AI's role in enhancing…
In this paper, we introduce Path Integral Networks (PI-Net), a recurrent network representation of the Path Integral optimal control algorithm. The network includes both system dynamics and cost models, used for optimal control based…
This study focuses on the implementation of modern and intelligent logistics vehicles equipped with advanced tracking and security features. In response to the evolving landscape of logistics management, the proposed system integrates…
Current directions in network routing research have not kept pace with the latest developments in network architectures, such as peer-to-peer networks, sensor networks, ad-hoc wireless networks, and overlay networks. A common characteristic…
Urban traffic attributed to commercial and industrial transportation is observed to largely affect living standards in cities due to external effects pertaining to pollution and congestion. In order to counter this, smart cities deploy…
The dynamic response of power grids to small transient events or persistent stochastic disturbances influences their stable operation. This paper studies the effect of topology on the linear time-invariant dynamics of power networks. For a…
Link dimensioning is used by ISPs to properly provision the capacity of their network links. Operators have to make provisions for sudden traffic bursts and network failures to assure uninterrupted operations. In practice, traffic averages…
Intelligent transportation systems (ITSs) and other smart-city technologies are increasingly advancing in capability and complexity. While simulation environments continue to improve, their fidelity and ease of use can quickly degrade as…
To incorporate the computation and communication with the physical world, next generation architecture i.e. CPS is viewed as a new technology. To improve the better interaction with the physical world or to perk up the electricity delivery…
Critical infrastructure, such as transport networks, underpins economic growth by enabling mobility and trade. However, ageing assets, climate change impacts (e.g., extreme weather, rising sea levels), and hybrid threats ranging from…
Maritime transport accounts for a majority of trades in volume, of which 70% in value is carried by container ships that transit regular routes on fixed schedules in the ocean. In the present paper, we analyse a data set of global liner…
Recent dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) are starting to support processing-in-memory (PIM) by associating their memory banks with processing elements (PEs), allowing applications to overcome the data movement bottleneck by offloading…
Neural networks are becoming increasingly prevalent in software, and it is therefore important to be able to verify their behavior. Because verifying the correctness of neural networks is extremely challenging, it is common to focus on the…
With increasingly ambitious initiatives such as GENI and FIND that seek to design the future Internet, it becomes imperative to define the characteristics of robust topologies, and build future networks optimized for robustness. This paper…
Plasticity is a fundamental property of complex systems, such as the brain or an organism. Yet it typically remains a descriptive concept inferred retrospectively from observed outcomes, such as modifications in activity or morphology.…
