(2012-02-14)The goal of this dissertation is to extend the state of the art in real-time scheduling algorithms to achieve energy efficiency. Currently, Pfair scheduling is one of the few scheduling frameworks which can optimally ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Battery-powered portable embedded systems have been widely used in many applications. These embedded systems have to concurrently perform a multitude of complex tasks under stringent time constraints. As these systems ...
-
(2017-07-21)In practice, the uncertainty in processing time data frequently affects the feasibility of optimal solution of the nominal production scheduling problem. Using the unit-specific event-based continuous time model for ...

Lean Resource Scheduling Algorithm with Maximized Resource Utilization Using Iterative Local Search (2018-11-29)This thesis presents a lean resource scheduling algorithm which merges traditional machine scheduling problems with Lean Manufacturing concepts to determine the resource levels, such as employee headcount or number of ...
-
(2021-06-18)Proper and effective decision-making by project owners during pre-construction phases is highly critical to the successful completion of construction projects. Due to the lack or uncertainty of project information during ...
-
(2015-11-18)This work was motivated by the study of the file fetching process in a cloud system, in particular by the recent progress in the model of transparent computing. A transparent computing system may have many clients, each ...
-
(2009-06-02)Much research in the area of process integration has focused on steady-state processes. However, there are many process units that are inherently unsteady-state or perform best when operated in an unsteady-state manner. ...
-
(2012-02-14)If renewable energy and biofuels are to attain success in the market place, each step of their production and the system as a whole must be optimized to increase material and energy efficiency, reduce production cost and ...
-
(2014-08-04)Chip multiprocessors (CMPs) are now popular design paradigm for microprocessors due to their power, performance and complexity advantages where a number of relatively simple cores are integrated on a single die. On chip ...
-
(2011-02-22)This work focused upon design and operation of biodiesel production facilities in support of the broader goal of developing a strategic approach to the development of biorefineries. Biodiesel production provided an appropriate ...
-
(2014-08-05)In this thesis, we studied the problem of designing a down link scheduling policy to serve multiple types of clients from a base station in a time-varying wireless network. An ideal scheduling policy is fair among the ...
-
(2011-08-08)The rise in demand for specialized medical services in the U.S has been recognized as one of the contributors to increased health care costs. Nuclear medicine is a specialized service that uses relatively new technologies ...
-
(2022-06-29)For Texas commercial and industrial customers, peak electrical demand charges are largely based on the highest 15-minute monthly peak. By storing energy from photovoltaic cells in batteries for use during high-demand times, ...
