The shortest paths are designed for just-arrived and ready-for-departing flights of the airport. Additionally, whether the flights could confront each other head-to-head on the taxiway is judged. In regard to the airport′s security and efficiency, airplanes must continuously taxi along the shortest route and the head-to-head confrontation should not occur. Two schemes are designed: One is to change the taxiing velocity of arrival flights, the other is to delay the starting time of departure flights. This algorithm is approved by a practical example.展开更多

Using a random mobility model, this paper derives the probability equation of the relative distance (RDIS) between any two mobile hosts in an ad-hoc network. Consequently, combining with average equivalent hop distance (AEHD), a host can estimate the routing hops between itself and any destination host each time the RD/RR procedure is triggered, and reduce the flooding area of RD/RR messages. Simulation results show that this optimized route repair (ORR) algorithm can significantly decrease the communication overhead of RR process by about 35%.展开更多

This study explores the optimization of dynamicvehicle scheduling and real-time route planning in urban public transportation systems, with a focus on busservices. It addresses the limitations of current shared mobility routing algorithms, which are primarily designedfor simpler, single origin/destination scenarios, and do not meet the complex demands of bus transit systems. Theresearch introduces an route planning algorithm designed to dynamically accommodate passenger travel needsand enable real-time route modifications. Unlike traditional methods, this algorithm leverages a queue-based,multi-objective heuristic A∗ approach, offering a solution to the inflexibility and limited coverage of suburbanbus routes. Also, this study conducts a comparative analysis of the proposed algorithm with solutions based onGenetic Algorithm (GA) and Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm (ACO), focusing on calculation time, routelength, passenger waiting time, boarding time, and detour rate. The findings demonstrate that the proposedalgorithmsignificantly enhances route planning speed, achieving an 80–100-fold increase in efficiency over existingmodels, thereby supporting the real-time demands of Demand-Responsive Transportation (DRT) systems. Thestudy concludes that this algorithm not only optimizes route planning in bus transit but also presents a scalablesolution for improving urban mobility.展开更多

As final results, are expected to promote cost savings to the public coffers, as well as environmental benefits. The developed mathematical model is formulated as a problem of linear programming with mixed-integer variables and transcribed into software GAMS （general algebraic modeling system）. The practical application was tested using data collected in the central region of a Brazilian city with approximately 90,000 inhabitants. The deterministic model used allowed an optimal solution. It was found after inclusion of restrictions that eliminated the appearance of sub-routes. It was concluded that the optimal routes allow for a 38% reduction in total distance traveled, which can generate savings of $320.00 per day regarding maintenance and fuel trucks.展开更多

There are currently no reports describing the preferred enterography route for cannulation in these patients. We first review the patient’s previous surgery records, which most often indicate that the efferent loop is at the greater curvature of the stomach. We recommend extending the duodenoscope along the greater curvature of the stomach and then advancing it through the “lower entrance” at the site of the gastrojejunal anastomosis, along the efferent loop, and through the “middle entrance” at the site of the Braun anastomosis to reach the papilla of Vater. Ten patients who had each undergone Billroth II gastroenterostomy and Braun anastomosis between January 2009 and December 2011 were included in our study. The overall success rate of enterography was 90% for the patients who had undergone Billroth II gastroenterostomy and Braun anastomosis, and the therapeutic success rate was 80%. We believe that this enterography route for ERCP is optimal for a patient who has had Billroth II gastroenterostomy and Braun anastomosis and helps to increase the success rate of the procedure.展开更多

文摘The transfer system,an important subsystem in urban citizen passenger transport system,is a guarantee of public transport priority and is crucial in the whole urban passenger transport traffic.What the majority of bus passengers consider is the convenience and comfort of the bus ride,which reduces the transfer time of bus passengers."Transfer time" is considered to be the first factor by the majority of bus passengers who select the routes.In this paper,according to the needs of passengers,optimization algorithm,with the minimal distance being the first goal,namely,the improved Dijkstra algorithm based on the minimal distance,is put forward on the basis of the optimization algorithm with the minimal transfer time being the first goal.
文摘Wireless sensor Mobile ad hoc networks have excellent potential in moving and monitoring disaster area networks on real-time basis.The recent challenges faced in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks(MANETs)include scalability,localization,heterogeneous network,self-organization,and self-sufficient operation.In this background,the current study focuses on specially-designed communication link establishment for high connection stability of wireless mobile sensor networks,especially in disaster area network.Existing protocols focus on location-dependent communications and use networks based on typically-used Internet Protocol(IP)architecture.However,IP-based communications have a few limitations such as inefficient bandwidth utilization,high processing,less transfer speeds,and excessive memory intake.To overcome these challenges,the number of neighbors(Node Density)is minimized and high Mobility Nodes(Node Speed)are avoided.The proposed Geographic Drone Based Route Optimization(GDRO)method reduces the entire overhead to a considerable level in an efficient manner and significantly improves the overall performance by identifying the disaster region.This drone communicates with anchor node periodically and shares the information to it so as to introduce a drone-based disaster network in an area.Geographic routing is a promising approach to enhance the routing efficiency in MANET.This algorithm helps in reaching the anchor(target)node with the help of Geographical Graph-Based Mapping(GGM).Global Positioning System(GPS)is enabled on mobile network of the anchor node which regularly broadcasts its location information that helps in finding the location.In first step,the node searches for local and remote anticipated Expected Transmission Count(ETX),thereby calculating the estimated distance.Received Signal Strength Indicator(RSSI)results are stored in the local memory of the node.Then,the node calculates the least remote anticipated ETX,Link Loss Rate,and information to the new location.Freeway Heuristic algorithm improves the data speed,efficiency and determines the path and optimization problem.In comparison with other models,the proposed method yielded an efficient communication,increased the throughput,and reduced the end-to-end delay,energy consumption and packet loss performance in disaster area networks.
文摘This paper presents an optimization model for solving the planning problem of collection and transportation of solid waste in medium-sized cities. As final results, are expected to promote cost savings to the public coffers, as well as environmental benefits. The developed mathematical model is formulated as a problem of linear programming with mixed-integer variables and transcribed into software GAMS （general algebraic modeling system）. The practical application was tested using data collected in the central region of a Brazilian city with approximately 90,000 inhabitants. The deterministic model used allowed an optimal solution. It was found after inclusion of restrictions that eliminated the appearance of sub-routes. It was concluded that the optimal routes allow for a 38% reduction in total distance traveled, which can generate savings of $320.00 per day regarding maintenance and fuel trucks.

文摘Rural vitalization is a major strategy for reform and development of agriculture and rural areas in China,the key task of which is improving rural living environment.Imperfect rural solid waste(RSW)collection and transportation system exacerbates the pollution of RSW to rural living environment,while it has not been established and improved in the cold region of Northern China due to climate and economy.Through the analysis of the current situation of RSW source separation,collection,transportation and disposal in China,an RSW collection and transportation system suitable for the northern cold region was developed.Considering the low winter temperature in the northern cold region,different requirements for RSW collection,transportation and terminal disposal,scattered source points and single terminal disposal nodes in rural areas,the study focused on determining the number and location of transfer stations,established a model for transfer stations selection and RSW collection and transportation routes optimization for RSW collection and transportation system,and proposed the elite retention particle swarm optimization–genetic algorithm(ERPSO–GA).The rural area of Baiquan County was taken as a representative case,the collection and transportation scheme of which was given,and the feasibility of the scheme was clarified by simulation experiment.

文摘Internet of things networks often suffer from early node failures and short lifespan due to energy limits.Traditional routing methods are not enough.This work proposes a new hybrid algorithm called ACOGA.It combines Ant Colony Optimization(ACO)and the Greedy Algorithm(GA).ACO finds smart paths while Greedy makes quick decisions.This improves energy use and performance.ACOGA outperforms Hybrid Energy-Efficient(HEE)and Adaptive Lossless Data Compression(ALDC)algorithms.After 500 rounds,only 5%of ACOGA’s nodes are dead,compared to 15%for HEE and 20%for ALDC.The network using ACOGA runs for 1200 rounds before the first nodes fail.HEE lasts 900 rounds and ALDC only 850.ACOGA saves at least 15%more energy by better distributing the load.It also achieves a 98%packet delivery rate.The method works well in mixed IoT networks like Smart Water Management Systems(SWMS).These systems have different power levels and communication ranges.The simulation of proposed model has been done in MATLAB simulator.The results show that that the proposed model outperform then the existing models.

文摘In the rapidly evolving landscape of Industry 4.0(I4.0),the convergence of information and operational technologies necessitates real-time communication and collaboration across cyber-physical systems and the Internet of Things(IoT).Rapid data transmission is particularly critical within enterprises(vertically)and among stakeholders(horizontally)in this complex,heterogeneous ecosystem.While current research has focused on data application,processing,and storage within the cloud-edge-device continuum,cross-edge transmission has received less attention,resulting in challenges such as suboptimal routing and excessive delays in horizontal communications.To address the above issues,this paper introduces a Connection-As-Required Scheme(CARS)specifically designed for delay-sensitive IoT and Cyber-Physical System(CPS)applications,where low-latency communication is essential for operational efficiency.CARS leverages Lyapunov optimization and backpressure algorithms to optimize traffic scheduling and routing,minimizing communication delay between entities.Benchmarking against state-of-the-art solutions,CARS reduces Round-Trip Time(RTT)to approximately 47.0%of conventional methods and decreases delay by 24.5%in TCP-based and 26.0%in UDP-based applications.These results highlight the potential of CARS to facilitate effective,low-latency collaboration in diverse I4.0 environments.
文摘The rapid transformation of Arctic maritime routes,driven by diminishing sea ice and shifting geopolitical conditions,presents both opportunities and challenges for global shipping.This study develops an integrated optimization framework for sustainable Arctic marine logistics,grounded in Agile Supply Chain Theory(ASCT),to address cost efficiency,environmental sustainability,and operational robustness under climate and policy uncertainty.A Mixed‐Integer Linear Programming(MILP)model was employed to optimize vessel routing across Arctic corridors,incorporating Energy Efficiency Operational Indicator(EEOI)and Carbon Intensity Indicator(CII)metrics directly into the objective function.Scenario analyses tested performance under varying climate conditions and policy constraints.The model was parameterized using vessel operational data from Arctic shipping logs,environmental datasets from ESA CryoSat‐2 and NSIDC,port accessibility records from Arctic port authorities,and economic data from Clarksons and the World Bank,ensuring realistic and replicable inputs for the analysis.Results demonstrate that ASCT‐based optimized routes achieved an average 14.8%reduction in operating costs,12.3%reduction in CO₂emissions,and an 11.6%improvement in EEOI,with the majority of voyages improving by at least one CII grade.Robustness analysis showed that optimized routes maintained up to 14.7 percentage points higher feasibility under severe ice scenarios and reduced cost volatility by 20–28%under carbon tax regimes.These findings confirm the value of embedding agility and resilience principles into Arctic shipping,aligning operational efficiency with International Maritime Organization(IMO)decarbonization objectives.The study extends ASCT into extreme maritime contexts,offering a replicable model for sustainable route planning in high‐risk logistics sectors.

文摘Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is efficacious in patients who have undergone Billroth II gastroenterostomies, but the success rate decreases in patients who also have experienced Braun anastomoses. There are currently no reports describing the preferred enterography route for cannulation in these patients. We first review the patient’s previous surgery records, which most often indicate that the efferent loop is at the greater curvature of the stomach. We recommend extending the duodenoscope along the greater curvature of the stomach and then advancing it through the “lower entrance” at the site of the gastrojejunal anastomosis, along the efferent loop, and through the “middle entrance” at the site of the Braun anastomosis to reach the papilla of Vater. Ten patients who had each undergone Billroth II gastroenterostomy and Braun anastomosis between January 2009 and December 2011 were included in our study. The overall success rate of enterography was 90% for the patients who had undergone Billroth II gastroenterostomy and Braun anastomosis, and the therapeutic success rate was 80%. We believe that this enterography route for ERCP is optimal for a patient who has had Billroth II gastroenterostomy and Braun anastomosis and helps to increase the success rate of the procedure.
