Cost allocation of capacity investment games

Consider a manufacturer serving a set of retail stores each of which faces deterministic demands in a finite planning horizon. At the beginning of the planning horizon, the production capacity of the manufacturer is built, followed by production, outsourcing to third party manufacturers if necessary and distribution to the retail stores. Because the retail stores are usually managed by different managers who act as independent profit centers, it is desirable that the total cost is divided among the retail stores so that their incentives can be appropriately captured and thus efficient operations can be achieved. Under various conditions, we prove that there is a fair allocation of costs among the retail stores in the sense that no subset of retail stores subsidizes others, or equivalently, the resulting capacity investment game has a nonempty core, that is, the capacity investment game is a balanced game. In addition, our proof provides a mechanism to compute a fair cost allocation. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Naval Research Logistics 60: 512–523, 2013     

基于波导干涉条纹的目标距离特征量提取方法

浅海波导中目标辐射噪声LOFAR谱图存在明暗相间的干涉条纹,从中可以提取出目标距离特征量信息,它反映了目标运动过程中的距离变化率。低信噪比情况下,条纹特征不够清晰,提取的距离特征量值精度会降低。提出了一种边缘定向增强型偏微分方程去噪方法,对LOFAR谱图进行处理,使条纹特征更加明显。海试数据处理结果表明,去噪处理后提取出的距离特征量精度明显提高。为满足实时性需要,提出了基于CUDA的距离特征量实时处理方法,实验结果表明能大幅提高算法运行速度。     

添加剂对煤燃烧特性影响的试验研究

为研究煤中所含矿物质对煤自燃性能的影响,利用热重分析法、差示扫描量热法,对煤及煤与5种添加剂的混合样品的燃烧特性进行了试验研究,试验结果表明5种添加剂对煤的自燃特性、燃烧动力学参数都有影响,尤其是硫酸铜、硫、硫酸铝显著降低煤的表观活化能,对煤的燃烧起到催化作用;硫酸亚铁因含有结晶水,540℃以后发生脱水分解吸热,对煤的燃烧起到阻燃作用,而持续15 min后开始放热,催化促进煤的燃烧;硫化亚铁从540℃开始发生氧化反应,对煤的燃烧起到促进作用。

指挥员作战决策行为的EWA学习模型分析

摘要：为在根本上提高作战决策质量,从行为学角度入手,以指挥员这一“人”为中心,并结合认知科学、心理学等知识对指挥员作战决策行为进行研究。从博弈角度出发,通过引入EWA模型,对指挥员作战决策行为进行分析和优化。结果表明,EWA模型,特别是加入“老练”指挥员后的模型能够明显改善指挥员决策行为,对指挥员,尤其是经验匮乏的指挥员决策行为表现有着重要的作用。     

Pricing bridges to cross a river

We consider a pricing problem in directed, uncapacitated networks. Tariffs must be defined by an operator, the leader, for a subset of m arcs, the tariff arcs. Costs of all other arcs in the network are assumed to be given. There are n clients, the followers, and after the tariffs have been determined, the clients route their demands independent of each other on paths with minimal total cost. The problem is to find tariffs that maximize the operator's revenue. Motivated by applications in telecommunication networks, we consider a restricted version of this problem, assuming that each client utilizes at most one of the operator's tariff arcs. The problem is equivalent to pricing bridges that clients can use in order to cross a river. We prove that this problem is APX‐hard. Moreover, we analyze the effect of uniform pricing, proving that it yields both an m approximation and a (1 + lnD)‐approximation. Here, D is upper bounded by the total demand of all clients. In addition, we consider the problem under the additional restriction that the operator must not reject any of the clients. We prove that this problem does not admit approximation algorithms with any reasonable performance guarantee, unless P = NP, and we prove the existence of an n‐approximation algorithm. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Information security: Designing a stochastic‐network for throughput and reliability

Todas information and communication network requires a design that is secure to tampering. Traditional performance measures of reliability and throughput must be supplemented with measures of security. Recognition of an adversary who can inflict damage leads toward a game‐theoretic model. Through such a formulation, guidelines for network designs and improvements are derived. We opt for a design that is most robust to withstand both natural degradation and adversarial attacks. Extensive computational experience with such a model suggests that a Nash‐equilibrium design exists that can withstand the worst possible damage. Most important, the equilibrium is value‐free in that it is stable irrespective of the unit costs associated with reliability vs. capacity improvement and how one wishes to trade between throughput and reliability. This finding helps to pinpoint the most critical components in network design. From a policy standpoint, the model also allows the monetary value of information‐security to be imputed. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Naval Research Logistics, 2009
