  • A simulation based decision support system for resouce planning

    Creator:
    Mechling, Ann M.
    Abstract:
    The problem of resource planning has long been a topic of interest for operations managers in both production and service industries. Inputs such as raw materials, energy, and capital are limited resources; therefore, managers must make informed decisions regarding the use of these inputs. This thesis addresses the area of...

  • Characteristics of optimal buffer allocation in unbalanced serial production lines

    Creator:
    Kretz, Thomas
    Abstract:
    For many decades, production and assembly lines have played an important role in industrial manufacturing systems. In particular, they have proved to be an efficient way to organize the production of high volume products in many industries. In their effort to improve the efficiency of production lines, researchers encountered two...

  • Resource allocation methods for quality-of-service provisioning in heterogeneous wireless networks

    Creator:
    Chakchouk, Nessrine
    Abstract:
    The increased use of mobile wireless devices that we have recently been witnessing, such as smartphones, tablets, e-readers, and WiFi enabled devices in general, is driving an unprecedented increase in the amount of data traffic. This fast market adoption of the wireless technology along with the tremendous success of multimedia...

  • Resource allocation optimization in large scale distributed systems

    Creator:
    Duong-Ba, Thuan Hong
    Abstract:
    We studied the problem of resource allocation in large scale distributed applications such as Online Social Networks (OSN) and Cloud Computing. In such settings, resource allocation schemes need to efficient as well as adaptive to the time-varying environments. The abstract resource allocation problem concerns with how to optimally use resources...

  • Construction risks allocation : optimal risk allocation decision support model

    Creator:
    Alsalman, Ali Abdullah
    Abstract:
    It has been suggested that projects in the construction industry are subject to risks more than other industries. However, there is often little parity in allocation of risks in the construction industry. Usually, project participants allocate risks by aversion where owners tend to shift risks to the primary contractor, who...

  • Design and Analysis of Distributed Resource Allocation Techniques for Large-Scale Dynamic Spectrum Access Networks

    Creator:
    NoroozOliaee, MohammadJavad
    Abstract:
    The widespread use of wireless devices that we have recently been witnessing, such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and wirelessly accessible devices in general, is causing an unprecedented growth in the required amount of the wireless radio spectrum. On the other hand, the spectrum resource has, for the last several decades,...

  • Energy-Efficient Resource Management Techniques for Cloud Data Centers

    Creator:
    Dabbagh, Mehiar
    Abstract:
    Energy consumption has become a great deal for cloud service providers due to financial as well as environmental concerns. Studies show that cloud servers operate, most of the time, at only between 10% and 50% of their maximal utilizations. These same studies also show that servers that are kept ON...

  • Revenue-based spectrum management via Markov decision process

    Creator:
    Zhu, Pingan
    Abstract:
    We consider the problem of wireless spectrum management in cognitive wireless networks that maximizes the revenue for a spectrum operator. Specifically, we study the problem on how a wireless spectrum operator can optimally allocate its limited spectrum to various classes users/devices who pay differently for their spectrum per unit time....

  • Efficient heuristics for buffer allocation in closed serial production lines

    Creator:
    Vergara Arteaga, Hector A.
    Abstract:
    The optimal allocation of buffers in serial production systems is one of the oldest and most researched problems in Industrial Engineering. In general, there are three main approaches to the buffer allocation problem when the objective is to maximize throughput. The first is basically a systematic trial and error procedure...

  • Multi-channel Stochastic Resource Allocation and Dynamic Access Scheduling

    Creator:
    Wang, Qiwei
    Abstract:
    Modern communication systems often have the ability to transmit signals on multiple communication mediums (e.g., RF, visible light) or interfaces (e.g., MAC layer protocols) at the same time. While each channel has different characteristics, a centralized controller with channel condition information will be able to schedule the resource allocated to...
