1. 1. Introduction of UXV assets into naval fleet architectures through an MILP based fleet modelling tool

   University essay from KTH/Marina system

   Author : Sjoerd Jan Sinnema; [2021]
   Keywords : Numerical cost optimization; Naval fleet modelling; UXV integration; MILP programming; Maritime engineering; Numerisk kostnadsoptimering; flottmodellering; UXV -integration; MILP -programmering; sjöfartsteknik;

   Abstract : The problem of fleet design and fleet modelling; for decades problems regarding determining fleet sizes and optimized routing problems have formed the groundwork into the fleet design and fleet optimization for a wide range of business sectors. In most of these problems only single entities or fixed design resources are optimized for a certain route and delivery objective based on minimizing operational costs. READ MORE

3. 2. A column generation approach to scheduling of parallel identical machines

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Matematiska institutionen

   Author : Julia Jobson; [2019]
   Keywords : Scheduling; Parallel Identical Machines; Column Generation; Large Neighbourhood Search; Mixed Integer Programming; GCG;

   Abstract : This thesis aims to implement a combination of Linear Programming Column Generation and a Large Neighbourhood Search heuristic to solve scheduling problems. The resulting method is named Integer Programming Column Search (IPCS). READ MORE

4. 3. Construction and theoretical study of a ball balancing platform : Limitations when stabilizing dynamic systems through implementation of automatic control theory

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Abstract : Control theory and its applications are crucial when operating within the area of dynamic systems. Compensating for disturbances and external actions imposed on a given system being inherently unstable or semi-stable. READ MORE

5. 4. Power Plant Operation Optimization : Unit Commitment of Combined Cycle Power Plants Using Machine Learning and MILP

   University essay from

   Author : Mohamed Elhafiz Hassan; [2019]
   Keywords : Unit Commitment; Economic Dispatch; Forecasting; Machine Learning; Mixed Integer Linear Programming; Optimization; Electricity prices; Electricity markets; Time series;

   Abstract : In modern days electric power systems, the penetration of renewable resources and the introduction of free market principles have led to new challenges facing the power producers and regulators. Renewable production is intermittent which leads to fluctuations in the grid and requires more control for regulators, and the free market principle raises the challenge for power plant producers to operate their plants in the most profitable way given the fluctuating prices.

6. 5. An Evaluation of TensorFlow as a Programming Framework for HPC Applications

   University essay from KTH/Beräkningsvetenskap och beräkningsteknik (CST); KTH/Parallelldatorcentrum, PDC

   Author : Wei Der Chien; [2018]
   Keywords : HPC; GPU; TensorFlow;

   Abstract : In recent years, deep-learning, a branch of machine learning gained increasing popularity due to their extensive applications and performance. At the core of these application is dense matrix-matrix multiplication. Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) are commonly used in the training process due to their massively parallel computation capabilities. READ MORE
