We describe and evaluate the algorithmic techniques that are used in the FF planning system. Like the HSP system, FF relies on forward state space search, using a heuristic that estimates goal distances by ignoring delete lists. Unlike…

Optimizing modern production plants using the job-shop principle is a known hard problem. For very large plants, like semiconductor fabs, the problem becomes unsolvable on a plant-wide scale in a reasonable amount of time using classical…

The article proposes a method for optimizing the structure of the software and hardware complex of an automated control system for continuous technological processes for large industrial enterprises. General information is given on the…

Mobile robotic platforms are an indispensable tool for various scientific and industrial applications. Robots are used to undertake missions whose execution is constrained by various factors, such as the allocated time or their remaining…

In recent years with the advent of high bandwidth internet access availability, the cloud computing applications have boomed. With more and more applications being run over the cloud and an increase in the overall user base of the different…

We propose a new approach to competitive analysis in online scheduling by introducing the novel concept of competitive-ratio approximation schemes. Such a scheme algorithmically constructs an online algorithm with a competitive ratio…

A novel simulation strategy is proposed to search for semiconductor quantum devices which are optimized with respect to required performances. Based on evolutionary programming, a tecnique implementing the paradigm of genetic algorithms to…

Process flexibility is widely adopted as an effective strategy for responding to uncertain demand. Many algorithms for constructing sparse flexibility designs with good theoretical guarantees have been developed for balanced and symmetrical…

Flowshop problems play a prominent role in operations research, and have considerable practical significance. The single-machine flowshop problem is of particular theoretical interest. Until now the problem of minimizing late jobs or job…

An algorithm for the generation of shuttling sequences is necessary for the operation of a linear segmented ion-trap quantum computer. The present work provides an implementation of an algorithm that produces sequences proved to be optimal…

Heterogeneous computing systems provide high performance and energy efficiency. However, to optimally utilize such systems, solutions that distribute the work across host CPUs and accelerating devices are needed. In this paper, we present a…

Path-planning algorithms are an important part of a wide variety of robotic applications, such as mobile robot navigation and robot arm manipulation. However, in large search spaces in which local traps may exist, it remains challenging to…

Production planning must account for uncertainty in a production system, arising from fluctuating demand forecasts. Therefore, this article focuses on the integration of updated customer demand into the rolling horizon planning cycle. We…

This work presents a novel method for task optimization in industrial plants using quantum-inspired tensor network technology. This method obtains the best possible combination of tasks on a set of machines with directed constraints while…

Decision tree learning is a widely used approach in machine learning, favoured in applications that require concise and interpretable models. Heuristic methods are traditionally used to quickly produce models with reasonably high accuracy.…

A basic task in the design of an industrial robot application is the relative placement of robot and workpiece. Process points are defined in Cartesian coordinates relative to the workpiece coordinate system, and the workpiece has to be…

Developing CPU scheduling algorithms and understanding their impact in practice can be difficult and time consuming due to the need to modify and test operating system kernel code and measure the resulting performance on a consistent…

Nature is known to be the best optimizer. Natural processes most often than not reach an optimal equilibrium. Scientists have always strived to understand and model such processes.Thus, many algorithms exist today that are inspired by…

A key challenge in satisficing planning is to use multiple heuristics within one heuristic search. An aggregation of multiple heuristic estimates, for example by taking the maximum, has the disadvantage that bad estimates of a single…

Domain-independent planning is one of the foundational areas in the field of Artificial Intelligence. A description of a planning task consists of an initial world state, a goal, and a set of actions for modifying the world state. The…
