Capacitated Multicommodity Flow Problem for Heterogeneous Smart Electricity Metering Communications Using Column Generation

Lower bound for the capacitated multicommodity flow problem

Multicommodity Capacitated Network Design Problem

We study 0-1 reformulations of the multicommodity capacitated network design problem, which is usually modeled with general integer variables to represent, design decisions on the number of facilities to install on each arc of the network. The reformulations are based on the multiple choice model, a generic approach to represent piecewise linear costs using 0-1 variables. This model is improved...

Multicommodity Flows and Column Generation

On M2M communications standards for smart metering

The paper discusses M2M communications standards for smart metering. One of the our goals is to show the failures of ETSI standartization process for M2M communications. Our paper proposes some extesions to ETSI standards. At the first hand, it is M-Bus protocol and Open Metering System based on M-Bus. The paper shows how to estimate wireless M-bus throughput and how to avoid collisions. After ...

Model for Network Assignment Problem of Capacitated Freight with Disruptions Integer Multicommodity Flow with Recourse

mends the use of travel time values for congested periods that are 2.5 times the value of time estimates during uncongested periods (7). Kawamura investigated differences in value of time among operators and trucking industry segments; findings from Kawamura’s research show that freight carriers have a value of time that is several times higher than that of passenger vehicles and that there is ...
