Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDynamic Scheduling for Cloud Reliability using Transportation ProblemS. K. Senthil Kumar, P. BalasubramanieProblem statement: Cloud is purely a dynamic environment and the existing task scheduling algorithms are mostly static and considered various parameters like time, cost, make span, speed, scalability, throughput, resource utilization, scheduling success rate and so on. Available scheduling algorithms are mostly heuristic in nature and more complex, time consuming and does not consider reliability and availability of the cloud … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 23 Aug 2012 · 8,340 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleForecasting of Energy Consumption and Pollutant Emission for Road Transportation Policies EvaluationPunravee Kongboontiam, Rungsun UdomsriProblem statement: The energy demand in Thailand has significantly increased over last ten years, particularly in transportation sector. Road transportation contributes the highest energy consumption, 38% of the total energy in the whole country, but it consumes 60% of the total energy usage in the northern region of Thailand. Various chemical pollutants emitted from the road transportation affecting to human … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 23 Jan 2012 · 7,722 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFiber Optic Sensors for Transportation Infrastructural Health MonitoringChin Chang, Rahul MehtaProblem statement: Monitoring the health of transportation infrastructures is currently reliant on transportation maintenance teams. Scheduled and periodic inspections on most of the infrastructures are performed by manual and visual operations, which are generally time consuming and costly procedures. The use of the fiber optic sensor technology makes it possible to realize continuous, real time and automatic health monitoring for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,342 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptimization Based Heuristic Approaches for Solving an Integrated One-dimensional Cutting Stock-Transportation ProblemSirirat Wongprakornkul, Peerayuth CharnsethikulIn this work, the integration of the one-dimensional cutting stock problem with multiple cutting facilities and the transportation problem was formulated mathematically as a large-scale discrete optimization problem. Benders partitioning approach and the column-generation technique with the direct method and the proposed heuristic method for solving corresponding integer programming (IP) were developed into three approaches and were used to solve … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,744 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Constrained Bottleneck Transportation ProblemPeerayuth Charnsethikul, Saeree SvetasreniTwo classes of the bottleneck transportation problem with an additional budget constraint are introduced. An exact approach was proposed to solve both problem classes with proofs of correctness and complexity. Moreover, the approach was extended to solve a class of multi-commodity transportation network with a special case of the multi-period constrained bottleneck assignment problem. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,033 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTHE USE OF DIFFERENT LEVELS OF MULTI-ROOM MODELING APPROACH-APPLICATION TO BUILDING POLLUTION TRANSPORT AND EFFICIENCY OF OFF-HOUR VENTILATIONAhmed Cherif MegriSeveral building simulation programs have been developed for design, analysis and prediction of the distribution of temperature, airflow and heat transfer between inside and outside of a building and/or between different zones of the same building. These programs are categorized as mono-zone models, multi-room models, zonal models, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models and multi-zone models.
