چکیده

The strengths and weaknesses of agent-based approaches and mathematical optimization techniques are analyzed and compared. Their appropriateness for dynamic distributed resource allocation is evaluated. We conclude that their properties are complementary and that it seems fruitful to try to combine the approaches. Some suggestions of such hybrid systems are sketched.

Combining Agent-Based Approaches and Classical Optimization Techniques

The strengths and weaknesses of agent-based approaches and classical optimization techniques are analyzed and compared. Their appropriateness for dynamic distributed resource allocation is evaluated. We conclude that their properties are complementary and that it seems beneficial to combine the approaches. Some suggestions of hybrid systems are sketched and two of these are implemented and eval...

On the Integration of Agent-Based and Mathematical Optimization Techniques

The strengths and weaknesses of agent-based approaches and classical optimization techniques are compared. Their appropriateness for resource allocation problems were resources are distributed and demand is changing is evaluated. We conclude that their properties are complementary and that it seems beneficial to combine the approaches. Some suggestions of such hybrid systems are sketched and tw...

Advanced OR and AI Methods in Transportation TRENDS IN MODELLING SUPPLY CHAIN AND LOGISTIC NETWORKS

According to the new tendencies in marketplace, such as the growth and spread of e-commerce and e-business, Supply chains and Logistics are naturally being modeled as distributed systems. Companies are organized as Demand and Supply network and the global logistics system is performed by a large-scale world-wide network of local service enterprises. Referring to such scenario, multiagents and o...

A Robust Scenario Based Approach in an Uncertain Condition Applied to Location-Allocation Distribution Centers Problem

The paper discusses the location-allocation model for logistic networks and distribution centers through considering uncertain parameters. In real-world cases, demands and transshipment costs change over the period of the time. This may lead to large cost deviation in total cost. Scenario based robust optimization approaches are proposed where occurrence probability of each scenario is not know...

A New Fairness Index and Novel Approach for QoS-Aware Resource Allocation in LTE Networks Based on Utility Functions

Resource allocation techniques have recently appeared as a widely recognized feature in LTE networks. Most of existing approaches in resource allocation focus on maximizing network’s utility functions. The great potential of utility function in improving resource allocation and enhancing fairness and mean opinion score (MOS) indexes has attracted large efforts over the last few years. In this p...
