The building evacuation problem with shared information

In this article, the Building Evacuation Problem with Shared Information (BEPSI) is formulated as a mixed integer linear program, where the objective is to determine the set of routes along which to send evacuees (supply) from multiple locations throughout a building (sources) to the exits (sinks) such that the total time until all evacuees reach the exits is minimized. The formulation explicitly incorporates the constraints of shared information in providing online instructions to evacuees, ensuring that evacuees departing from an intermediate or source location at a mutual point in time receive common instructions. Arc travel time and capacity, as well as supply at the nodes, are permitted to vary with time and capacity is assumed to be recaptured over time. The BEPSI is shown to be NP‐hard. An exact technique based on Benders decomposition is proposed for its solution. Computational results from numerical experiments on a real‐world network representing a four‐story building are given. Results of experiments employing Benders cuts generated in solving a given problem instance as initial cuts in addressing an updated problem instance are also provided. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

基于介数中心性重要节点的能量均衡机制

针对无线传感器网络中瓶颈节点和准瓶颈节点对网络影响的特例性问题,将重要节点的概念推广到对节点介数的研究,提出了基于介数中心性重要节点的能量均衡机制。该机制将介数值大于网络平均介数值的节点判定为重要节点,并利用重要节点的邻居节点建立缓冲机制来减少其数据的转发次数,在牺牲较少数据传输延时的情况下节省了介数中心性重要节点的能量消耗。仿真实验表明该机制能够较好地均衡无线传感器网络中的节点能耗,提高了网络生命周期。     

基于活跃度和任务的目标导向VANETs路由算法

针对车载自组织网络(VANETs)中节点移动速度快、节点任务分布不均、网络拓扑结构不稳定等特点,提出了一种基于节点活跃度和任务的目标导向VANETs路由算法GATRA(goal-oriented routing algorithm based on activity and task)。该算法根据当前运动节点的运动方向与目标节点的关系,以及任务饱和程度,综合考虑采用消息携带还是转发策略,以节约传输平均时延。在选择中继节点时,综合考虑邻接节点的位置、运动速度和方向等影响因素,设计节点活跃度的计算方法,作为选择中继节点的策略,从而提高了消息传输的成功率。仿真结果表明,与当前典型的VANETs路由算法相比,GATRA算法在传输成功率和平均延迟时间上具有较大提升。     

Non‐greedy heuristics and augmented neural networks for the open‐shop scheduling problem

In this paper we propose some non‐greedy heuristics and develop an Augmented‐Neural‐Network (AugNN) formulation for solving the classical open‐shop scheduling problem (OSSP). AugNN is a neural network based meta‐heuristic approach that allows integration of domain‐specific knowledge. The OSSP is framed as a neural network with multiple layers of jobs and machines. Input, output and activation functions are designed to enforce the problem constraints and embed known heuristics to generate a good feasible solution fast. Suitable learning strategies are applied to obtain better neighborhood solutions iteratively. The new heuristics and the AugNN formulation are tested on several benchmark problem instances in the literature and on some new problem instances generated in this study. The results are very competitive with other meta‐heuristic approaches, both in terms of solution quality and computational times. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Naval Research Logistics, 2005.     

Approximation of multiclass queueing networks with highly variable arrivals under deterministic routing

In this paper, we present the heavy‐traffic bottleneck phenomenon under multiclass deterministic routing and discuss how it can be addressed by decomposition approximation. Examples show that Bitran and Tirupati's method and Whitt's enhancements for deterministic routing may not properly account for this phenomenon. We propose refinements to these methods based on Whitt's variability functions. Results of numerical experiments on simple networks and semiconductor manufacturing process show significant improvement in the approximation of expected waiting time at bottleneck stations. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
