Interaction between intelligent agent strategies for real-time transportation planning [PDF]
In this paper we study the real-time scheduling of time-sensitive full truckload pickup-and-delivery jobs. The problem involves the allocation of jobs to a fixed set of vehicles which might belong to dfferent collaborating transportation agencies.

A disaster risk assessment model for the conservation of cultural heritage sites in Melaka Malaysia [PDF]
There exist ongoing efforts to reduce the exposure of Cultural Heritage Sites (CHSs) to Disaster Risk (DR). However, a complicated issue these efforts face is that of ‘estimation’ whereby no standardised unit exist for assessing the effects of Cultural ...

Generation of cubic graphs and snarks with large girth [PDF]
We describe two new algorithms for the generation of all non-isomorphic cubic graphs with girth at least $k\ge 5$ which are very efficient for $5\le k \le 7$ and show how these algorithms can be efficiently restricted to generate snarks with girth at ...

The benefit of complete trip information in free-floating carsharing systems
Free-floating and instant-access carsharing systems are two features of the most flexible carsharing systems. In the former, users are allowed to freely park the car in any legal parking spot within the boundaries defined by the service operator.

Path Tracking Control of a Differential-Drive Tracked Robot Based on Look-ahead Distance
Abstract In this paper, a PI path tracking controller based on look-ahead point information for a differential-drive crawler-type robot was developed. The robot is equipped with Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) antennas and a receiver module which are used as navigation sensors to obtain real-time estimates of the position and heading errors

Path tracking control of crawler mobile platform based on bang-bang control with boundary layer
In order to realize the path tracking of the on-off valve-controlled crawler mobile platform that cannot be closed-loop speed regulated, considering the low speed of the platform and the ability to turn in place, a bang-bang path tracking control ...

Mutual information-based exploration on continuous occupancy maps [PDF]
© 2015 IEEE. The problem of active perception with an autonomous robot is studied in this paper. It is proposed that the exploratory behavior of the robot be controlled using mutual information (MI) surfaces between the current map and a one-step look ...
