The desire to operate chemical processes in a safe and economically optimal way has motivated the development of so-called real-time optimization (RTO) methods [1]. For continuous processes, these methods aim to compute safe and optimal steady-state set ...

Current ramps optimization study with the RAPTOR code

Olivier Sauter, Federico Alberto Alfredo Felici, Anna Teplukhina

Optimization of the plasma discharge is related to determination of the optimal time evolution of the plasma parameters to reach a specific plasma state taken into account certain physical and technical constraints. The set of plasma parameters which shoul ...

We address the problem of localizing non-collaborative WiFi devices in a large region. Our main motive is to localize humans by localizing their WiFi devices, e.g. during search-and-rescue operations after a natural disaster. We use an active sensing appro ...

The management of uncertainties is a challenging task for reliable and secure operation of power systems. The uncertainties come from multiple sources, including the forecast errors of wind power and load, the forced outage of generating units, loss of tra ...

Optimization-based Feedforward Path Following for Model Reference Adaptive Control of an Unmanned Helicopter

Timm Faulwasser

This paper addresses an optimization based approach to follow a geometrically defined path by an unmanned helicopter. In particular, this approach extends reference model following concepts. Instead of using vehicle dynamics, the optimization is based on t ...

In dynamic optimization problems, the optimal input profiles are typically obtained using models that predict the system behavior. In practice, however, process models are often inaccurate, and on-line adaptation is required for appropriate prediction and ...

While research on the design of heterogeneous concurrent systems has a long and rich history, a unified design methodology and tool support has not emerged so far, and thus the creation of such systems remains a difficult, time-consuming and error-prone pr ...

A simulation-based optimization framework for urban transportation problems

Michel Bierlaire, Carolina Osorio Pizano

This paper proposes a simulation-based optimization (SO) method that enables the efficient use of complex stochastic urban traffic simulators to address various transportation problems. It presents a metamodel that integrates information from a simulator w ...

Optimization is important in science and engineering as a way of finding ”optimal” situations, designs or operating conditions. Optimization is typically performed on the basis of a mathematical model of the process under investigation. In practice, optimi ...

Multi-path content delivery: Efficiency analysis and optimization algorithms

The paper studies the benefits of multi-path content delivery from a rate-distortion efficiency perspective. We develop an optimization framework for computing transmission schedules for streaming media packets over multiple network paths that maximize the ...
