Two available ways for enforcing equality path constraints are presented, which can be directly incorporated into the improved CVI approach. Inequality path constraints are much more difficult to deal with, even for small scale problems, because the time intervals where the inequality path constraints are active are unknown in advance. To overcome the challenge, the ll penalty function and a novel smoothing technique are in-troduced, leading to a new effective approach. Moreover, on the basis of the relevant theorems, a numerical algo-rithm is proposed for nonlinear dynamic optimization problems with inequality path constraints. Results obtained from the classic batch reaCtor operation problem are in agreement with the literature reoorts, and the comoutational efficiency is also high.展开更多

Making use of efficient pruning policy, the algorithm reduces greatly the size of search space and the computing time. Although the proposed algorithm has exponential time complexity in the worst case, it can get the running results quickly in practical application. When the scale of network increases, the algorithm can efficiently control the size of search space by constraint conditions and prior queue. The results of simulation show that successful request ratio ( r ) of efficient algorithm for multi-constrained optimal path (EAMCOP) is better than that of heuristic algorithm for multi-constrained optimal path (H-MCOP), but average computing time ( t ) of EAMCOP is far less than that of H-MCOP. And it can be seen that the computing time of EAMCOP is only one fourth of that of H-MCOP in Advanced Research Projects Agency Network (ARPANet) topology.展开更多

Max-plus-linear representation is an approach to model and analyze a class of discrete-event systems, in which the behavior of a target system is represented by linear equations in max-plus algebra. Several types of MPL equations can be reduced to a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) for mixed integer programming. The resulting formulation is flexible and easy-to-use for project scheduling;for example, we can obtain the earliest output times, latest task-starting times, and latest input times using an MPL form. We also develop a key method for identifying critical tasks under the framework of CSP. The developed methods are validated through a numerical example.展开更多

Then it analyzes the possibility of transformation caused by the change of constraints according to the possibility of resource endowment changes and the possibility of changes in economic foundations and political cultural foundations. And finally based on the analysis of constraints,it is concluded that the development of China's future needs to focus on small-scale farmers,large-scale planting households,cooperatives and a small number of enterprises,and put forward three paths to developing modern agriculture which are large scale land operation,the professional cooperation of farmers,and the large scale production processes.展开更多

In the present work we quantize the same theory in the equal light-cone world-sheet time framework, on the hyperplanes of the light-front defined by the light-cone world-sheet time , using the standard constraint quantization techniques in the Hamiltonian and path integral formulations. The light-front theory is seen to be a constrained system in the sense of Dirac, which is in contrast to the corresponding case of the instant-form theory, where the theory remains unconstrained in the sense of Dirac. The light-front theory is seen to possess a set of twenty six primary second-class contraints. In the present work Hamiltonian and path integral quantizations of this theory are studied on the light-front.展开更多

文摘This research develops a solution method for project scheduling represented by a max-plus-linear (MPL) form. Max-plus-linear representation is an approach to model and analyze a class of discrete-event systems, in which the behavior of a target system is represented by linear equations in max-plus algebra. Several types of MPL equations can be reduced to a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) for mixed integer programming. The resulting formulation is flexible and easy-to-use for project scheduling;for example, we can obtain the earliest output times, latest task-starting times, and latest input times using an MPL form.
