The New York Times

Summary

The New York Times (NYT) is a daily newspaper based in New York City with a worldwide readership reported in 2022 to comprise 740,000 paid print subscribers, and 8.6 million paid digital subscribers. Founded in 1851 as the New-York Daily Times, it is published by The New York Times Company. The Times has won 132 Pulitzer Prizes, the most of any newspaper, and has long been regarded as a national "newspaper of record". For print, it is ranked 17th in the world by circulation and 3rd in the United States. The newspaper is headquartered at The New York Times Building near Times Square, Manhattan. The New York Times Company, which is publicly traded, has been governed by the Sulzberger family since 1896, through a dual-class share structure. A. G. Sulzberger, the paper's publisher and the company's chairman, is the fifth generation of the family to head the paper. Since the mid-1970s, The New York Times has expanded its layout and organization, adding special weekly sections on various t

A link partitioning approach for real-time control of queue spillbacks on congested arterials

Nicolas Marie Daniel Bernadette De Lamberterie, Nikolaos Geroliminis, Mohsen Ramezani Ghalenoei

In oversaturated urban traffic conditions when traffic demand exceeds capacity at signalised intersections, queues fail to clear during the allocated green times. Once a queue reaches the upstream intersection in an arterial, a queue spillback occurs that reduces the upstream link capacity. To mitigate the negative impacts of spillbacks, this article introduces a real-time adaptive traffic signal control method for global management of spillbacks along signalised arterials. The key idea of the proposed method is to implement a real-time partitioning of the arterial to detect critical cluster(s) of consecutive links with oversaturated traffic conditions. The partitioning approach enables to develop locally smaller-sized decentralised signal control strategies operating on the most upstream and downstream intersections of each cluster. Micro-simulation investigations on a real-world arterial site demonstrate the benefits of the proposed approach compared to an existing pre-timed signal control strategy and a classical decentralised green extension strategy. Utilising an advanced queue length detection method and specific focus on queue spillbacks prevention, the control strategy leads to significant reduction of congestion, and arterial total delay.

In this work, we study the single machine scheduling problem with uncertain release times and processing times of jobs. We adopt a robust scheduling approach, in which the measure of robustness to be minimized for a given sequence of jobs is the worst-case objective function value of the set of all possible realizations of release and processing times. The objective function value is the total flow time of all jobs. We discuss some important properties of robust schedules for zero and non-zero release times, and illustrate the added complexity in robust scheduling given non-zero release times. We propose heuristics based on variable neighborhood search and iterated local search to solve the problem and generate robust schedules. The algorithms are tested and their solution performance is compared with optimal solutions or lower bounds through numerical experiments based on synthetic data.
