Power-of-two sampling in redundancy systems: The impact of assignment constraints

A classical sampling strategy for load balancing policies is power-of-two, where any server pair is sampled with equal probability. This does not cover practical settings with assignment constraints which force non-uniform sampling. While intuition suggests that non-uniform sampling adversely impacts performance, this was only supported through simulations, and rigorous statements have remained elusive. Building on product-form distributions for redundancy systems, we prove the stochastic dominance of uniform sampling for a four-server system as well as arbitrary-size systems in light traffic.     

Delay optimization and energy balancing algorithm for improving network lifetime in fixed wireless sensor networks

Since wireless in terms of energy-restricted processes, dispersion radii, processing power limitations, buffers, bandwidth-limited connections, active network topologies, and network stream of traffic outlines, sensor networks provide difficult design issues. The number of hops and latency are decreased if there is a relay mote because it interacts directly with relay motes that are closer to the destination mote. The tremendous intensive research in the area of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has gained a lot of significance among the technical community and research. The job of WSN is to sense the data using sensor motes, pass on the data to the destination detection mote which is associated with a processing center and can be used in multiple spans of Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Wireless sensor network has a set of sensor motes. By making use of sensor mote placement strategy all the sensor motes are spread in an area with each mote having its own exceptional location. Internet of things applications are delay sensitive those applications have a challenge of forming the complete path at a lower delay constraint. The proposal is to modify the game theory energy balancing algorithm by making use of relay motes so that overall network lifetime is increased. It has been proved that modified GTEB is better with respect to existing algorithms in terms of delay, figure of hops, energy depletion, figure of alive motes, figure of dead motes, lifespan ratio, routing overhead and throughput.

Incorporating ergonomic risks into assembly line balancing

In manufacturing, control of ergonomic risks at manual workplaces is a necessity commanded by legislation, care for health of workers and economic considerations. Methods for estimating ergonomic risks of workplaces are integrated into production routines at most firms that use the assembly-type of production. Assembly line re-balancing, i.e., re-assignment of tasks to workers, is an effective and, in case that no additional workstations are required, inexpensive method to reduce ergonomic risks. In our article, we show that even though most ergonomic risk estimation methods involve nonlinear functions, they can be integrated into assembly line balancing techniques at low additional computational cost. Our computational experiments indicate that re-balancing often leads to a substantial mitigation of ergonomic risks.     

Bi-criteria assembly line balancing by considering flexible operation times

This paper addresses a novel approach to deal with Flexible task Time Assembly Line Balancing Problem (FTALBP). In this regard, machines are considered in which operation time of each task can be between lower and upper bounds. These machines can compress the processing time of tasks, but this action may lead to higher cost due to cumulative wear, erosion, fatigue and so on. This cost is described in terms of task time via a linear function. Hence, a bi-criteria nonlinear integer programming model is developed which comprises two inconsistent objective functions: minimizing the cycle time and minimizing the machine total costs. In order to sustain these objectives concurrently, this paper applies the LP-metric method to make a combined dimensionless objective. Moreover, a genetic algorithm (GA) is presented to solve this NP-hard problem and design of experiments (DOE) method is hired to tune various parameters of our proposed algorithm. The computational results demonstrate the effectiveness of implemented procedures.
