چکیده

We present a constraint programming solution to the problem of generating round-robin schedules for sailing match races. Our schedules satisfy the criteria published by the International Sailing Federation (ISAF) governing body for match race pairing lists. We show that some published ISAF schedules are in fact illegal, and present corresponding legal instances and schedules that have not previously been published. Our schedules can be downloaded as blanks, then populated with actual competitors and used in match racing competitions.

Yacht match race simulation

There are many factors that can determine the winner of a yacht match race. The major factors include weather conditions observed during the race, tactical decisions made while sailing and the dynamic performance of each yacht. Weather conditions observed during the race can be modelled from actual weather data. Tactical decisions made while sailing can be modelled using logic that approximatel...

Uniform weighted round robin scheduling algorithms for input queued switches

| This paper concentrates on obtaining uniform weighted round robin schedules for input queued packet switches. The desired schedules are uniform in the sense that each connection is serviced at regularly spaced time slots, where the spacing is proportional to the inverse of the guaranteed data rate. Suitable applications include ATM networks as well as satellite switched TDMA systems that prov...

IP models for round robin tournaments

Generally speaking in sports competition a number of teams play against each other over a period of time according to a certain scheme. The round robin scheme is very popular in many team sports like soccer and basketball. In this paper we study several basic variants of round robin tournaments. Additionally, we examine real world issues that have to be considered when constructing a sports lea...

Stability Improvement of Hydraulic Turbine Regulating System Using Round-Robin Scheduling Algorithm

The sustainability of hydraulic turbines was one of the most important issues considered by electrical energy provider experts. Increased electromechanical oscillation damping is one of the key issues in the turbines sustainability. Electromechanical oscillations, if not quickly damp, can threaten the stability of hydraulic turbines and causes the separation of different parts of the netw...

An Analytical Study in Connectivity of Neighborhoods for Single Round Robin Tournaments

Sport scheduling is a trending research topic in operations research. Local search heuristics are among the most effective methods to construct schedules. Prior studies have investigated the connectivity of existing neighborhoods in the scheduling of single round robin tournaments and determined that they are strongly affected by how the initial schedule is constructed. In this paper we prove t...
