School Bus Routing By Integer Programming, Dynamic Programming, And Composite Algorithms, Harvey M. Salkin, Patrice Breining Aug 1972

School Bus Routing By Integer Programming, Dynamic Programming, And Composite Algorithms, Harvey M. Salkin, Patrice Breining

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

This paper proposes several models, and outlines seemingly efficient techniques for the school bus routing problem. Given the number of schools, buses and their capacities, the number of children, their location and destination, and distances or times between stops, the problem is to design a "best" (several criteria are given) series of bus routes. An integer programming, a dynamic programming, and several composite models and algorithms are proposed. By making reasonable assumptions computer storage problems may be substantially alleviated and implementation is possible in each case. As the problem is usually enormous, emphasis is placed on producing "good" solutions to …

Crossings Of Curves By A One-Dimensional Brownian Motion Process, Douglas Yates Rowland Jun 1972

Crossings Of Curves By A One-Dimensional Brownian Motion Process, Douglas Yates Rowland

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

The following result is proved: For any given continuous function and any T > 0, the set of points between zero and T where the sample path of a standard separable Brownian motion process intersects the graph of the function is almost surely either a perfect set or a set which is perfect if the origin is removed. Sufficient conditions are given for that set to be perfect and sufficient conditions are given for it to be perfect if the origin is removed.


A Design Methodology For Automated Inspection, Donald Henrik Kylin Jun 1972

A Design Methodology For Automated Inspection, Donald Henrik Kylin

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

A class of industrial inspection problems, important because it often causes production bottlenecks, is posed as a pattern recognition problem. A typical member of this class is the inspection of surface quality in flat-rolled steel. Varying inspection requirements, the limitations of manual visual inspection, and the production potential of modern plants motivate research into automatic inspection. Operations research methodologies are applied to three outstanding problems in applied pattern recognition in the context of the automatic inspection system design problem. The design methodology for the inspection system, as proposed in block diagram form, is based on the solutions to these three …
