This paper introduces GODDeS: a fully distributed self-organizing decision-theoretic routing algorithm designed to effectively exploit high quality paths in lossy ad-hoc wireless environments, typically with a large number of nodes. The…

We study the problem of optimal location querying for location based services in road networks, which aims to find locations for new servers or facilities. The existing optimal solutions on this problem consider only the cases with one new…

In this paper we provide a finite set of candidates to be one of the endpoints of an optimal solution for the problem of locating simultaneously a service facility and a rapid transit line.

This paper offers a strategic approach to Electric Vehicles (EVs) charging network planning, emphasizing the integration of demand and supply dynamics via continuous-time fluid queue models and discrete flow refueling location modeling, all…

Compressor stations are the heart of every high-pressure gas transport network. Located at intersection areas of the network they are contained in huge complex plants, where they are in combination with valves and regulators responsible for…

Modeling the locations of nodes as a uniform binomial point process (BPP), we present a generic mathematical framework to characterize the performance of an arbitrarily-located reference receiver in a finite wireless network. Different from…

This paper considers facility location problems in which a firm entering a market seeks to open facilities on a subset of candidate locations so as to maximize its expected market share, assuming that customers choose the available…

Motivated by a wide variety of applications, this paper introduces a general class of networks of stochastic loss systems in which congestion renders lost revenue due to customers or jobs being permanently removed from the system. We seek…

We study a location-routing problem in the context of capacitated vehicle routing. The input is a set of demand locations in a metric space and a fleet of k vehicles each of capacity Q. The objective is to locate k depots, one for each…

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in cellular networks have garnered considerable interest. One of their applications is as flying base stations (FBSs), which can increase coverage and quality of service (QoS). Because FBSs are…

This paper deals with a bilevel approach of the location-allocation problem with dimensional facilities. We present a general model that allows us to consider very general shapes of domains for the dimensional facilities and we prove the…

We present a novel algorithm for calculating fix-points. The algorithm calculates fix-points of an endo-function f on a distributive lattice, by performing reachability computation a graph derived from the dual of f; this is in comparison…

This paper presents a distributed algorithm for finding near optimal dominating sets on grids. The basis for this algorithm is an existing centralized algorithm that constructs dominating sets on grids. The size of the dominating set…

This paper introduces a general modeling framework for a multi-type maximal covering location problem in which the position of facilities in different metric spaces are simultaneously decided to maximize the demand generated by a set of…

This paper presents an approach to help business decision-makers gain market share by providing competitive tender offers for Full-Truck-Load (FTL) services. In particular, we compare operating a fleet of Full-Charter-Trucks (FCT), using…

In this paper, we provide a mathematical optimization-based framework to determine the location of leak detection devices along a network. Assuming that the devices are endowed with a known coverage area, we analyze two different models.…

In this paper, we investigate the problem of covering the vertices of a graph associated to a finite vector space as introduced by Das \cite{Das}, such that we can uniquely identify any vertex by examining the vertices that cover it. We use…

Resource allocation plays a central role in many networked systems such as smart grids, communication networks and urban transportation systems. In these systems, many constraints have physical meaning and having feasible allocation is…

A major barrier to wide adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) is the absence of reliable and equitable charging infrastructure. Poorly located charging stations create coverage gaps and slow down EV adoption, especially in underserved…

Flying Networks (FNs) have emerged as a promising solution to provide on-demand wireless connectivity when network coverage is insufficient or the communications infrastructure is compromised, such as in disaster management scenarios.…
