1-07-30 Policies for Laptop Rollout and Use

چکیده

The rollout of laptop computers costing several thousands of dollars each to a work force is a major undertaking and investment. Some degree of corporate discipline and policy must be established for laptop computing. From the start, the entire rollout process should be shaped by a clear, specific set of goals directed to a quantified return on investment (ROI). The amount of dollars that can be earned, the number of hours that can be saved, and projected competitive advantage must all be known before the actual purchases are made. Therefore, the rollout process actually starts with the original needs analysis: Why a laptop? Who gets one, and when?

Solution methodologies for vehicle routing problems with stochastic demand

We present solution methodologies for vehicle routing problems (VRPs) with stochastic demand, with a specific focus on the vehicle routing problem with stochastic demand (VRPSD) and the vehicle routing problem with stochastic demand and duration limits (VRPSDL). The VRPSD and the VRPSDL are fundamental problems underlying many operational challenges in the fields of logistics and supply chain m...

Rollout Policies for Dynamic Solutions to the Multivehicle Routing Problem with Stochastic Demand and Duration Limits

We develop a family of rollout policies based on fixed routes to obtain dynamic solutions to the vehicle routing problem with stochastic demand and duration limits (VRPSDL). In addition to a traditional one-step rollout policy, we leverage the notions of the preand post-decision state to distinguish two additional rollout variants. We tailor our rollout policies by developing a dynamic decompos...

بررسی میزان شیوع اختلالات اسکلتی- عضلانی در کاربران لپ تاپ و ارتباط آن با وضعیت اتخاذی بدن در حین کار با آن

  Background : It seems that the prevalence of Musculoskeletal Disorder (MSD) in laptop users is high although relatively few studies had focus in this group. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of discomfort and pain in laptop user subjects and identifying the common adopted posture during usage of laptop.   Methods : This descriptive cross sectional study was targeted at a...

Nested Rollout Policy Adaptation for Monte Carlo Tree Search

Monte Carlo tree search (MCTS) methods have had recent success in games, planning, and optimization. MCTS uses results from rollouts to guide search; a rollout is a path that descends the tree with a randomized decision at each ply until reaching a leaf. MCTS results can be strongly influenced by the choice of appropriate policy to bias the rollouts. Most previous work on MCTS uses static unifo...
