Optimal Release Times in Single-Stage Manufacturing Systems with Blocking: Optimal Control Perspective

This paper concerns a due-date matching problem in a single-stage manufacturing system. Given a finite sequence of jobs and their service order, and given the delivery due date of each job, the problem is to choose the jobs release (arrival) times so as to match as closely as possible their completion times to their respective due dates. The system is modelled as a deterministic single-server FIFO queue with an output buffer for storing jobs whose service is completed prior to their due dates. The output buffer has a finite capacity; when it is full, the server is being blocked. Associated with each job there is a convex cost function penalizing its earliness as well as tardiness. The due-date matching problem is cast as an optimal control problem, whose objective is to minimize the sum of the above cost functions by the choice of the jobs arrival (release) times. Time-box upper-bound and lower-bound constraints are imposed on the jobs output (delivery) times. The optimal-control setting brings to bear on the development of fast and efficient algorithms having intuitive geometric appeal and potential for online implementation.Communicated by W. B.

PARTICIPATION IN INTERNATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL AGREEMENTS: THE ROLE OF TIMING AND REGULATION

ABSTRACT. We analyze the formation of self‐enforcing international environmental agreements under the assumption that countries announce their participation either simultaneously or sequentially. It is shown that a sequential formation process opens up possibilities for strategic behavior of countries that may lead to inferior outcomes in terms of global abatement and welfare. We then analyze whether and under which conditions a regulator like an international organization, even without enforcement power, can improve upon globally suboptimal outcomes through coordination and moderation, given that recommendations must be Pareto‐improving to all parties.     

激光等离子体能量角分布及吸收定标律

主要研究激光平面靶等离子体发射能量角分布及吸收定标律。实验利用高斯型1.06μm激光脉冲,其能量为2～50J,脉冲宽度为0.3～2.2ns,靶面平均辐照强度为1.8×1013～1.1x10~(15)W/cm~2,光束以25°角入射。实验采用了Au、Ag、Ti、Al和C_8H_8等厚靶。用等离子体卡计测量靶面吸收的激光能量。用指数函数拟合实验数据,给出了吸收效率分别作为激光强度、脉冲宽度和靶材料原子序数的函数的定标关系式。这些关系式定性地与逆轫致吸收的理论关系式相一致。     

Precision of neural timing: The small ? limit

We explore the precision of neural timing in a model neural system with n identical input neurons whose firing time in response to stimulation is chosen from a density f. These input neurons stimulate a target cell which fires when it receives m hits within ? msec. We prove that the density of the firing time of the target cell converges as ?→0 to the input density f raised to the mth and normalized. We give conditions for convergence of the density in L¹, pointwise, and uniformly as well as conditions for the convergence of the standard deviations.

On timing Jitter in wavelength-division multiplexed soliton systems

Collision-induced timing shifts in a wavelength-division multiplexed soliton system are computed when damping, amplification, filtering and positive dispersion management following the loss profile are included. A statistical analysis is presented which takes into account the resulting effect of the large number of collisions occurring in the fiber. Analytic expressions are derived for the root mean square timing jitter and the maximum length of error-free transmission with an arbitrary number of channels. An extensive analysis of system performance corresponding to situations with and without filters and/or dispersion management is carried out.     

Fuzzy logic based intersection delay estimation

A fuzzy logic based delay estimation system is proposed and modelled. Conventional method of delay study involves solving static engineering equations in which only technical factors (traffic demand, roadway geometry, and signal control, etc.) are considered and the affect of nontechnical factors (such as weather or visibility) cannot be analyzed since they do not follow a predefined process. The fuzzy logic based delay estimation combines the complex technical and nontechnical factors and is adaptive to the changing driving environment. The rule base of the delay estimation system is constructed either following a mathematical model or from real-time traffic operational data. Simulation and field test of the fuzzy system have shown that fuzzy logic based modelling is a promising approach to improving intersection delay estimation.     

Real R&;D options with time-to-learn and learning-by-doing

We model R&D efforts to enhance the value of a product or technology before final development. Such efforts may be directed towards improving quality, adding new features, or adopting technological innovations. They are implemented as optional, costly and interacting control actions expected to enhance value but with uncertain outcome. We examine the interesting issues of the optimal timing of R&D, the impact of lags in the realization of the R&D outcome, and the choice between accelerated versus staged (sequential) R&D. These issues are also especially interesting since the history of decisions affects future decisions and the distributions of asset prices and induces path-dependency. We show that the existence of optional R&D efforts enhances the investment option value significantly. The impact of a dividend-like payout rate or of project volatility on optimal R&D decisions may be different with R&D timing flexibility than without. The attractiveness of sequential strategies is enhanced in the presence of learning-by-doing and decreasing marginal reversibility of capital effects.
