The Second Chvatal Closure Can Yield Better Railway Timetables
We investigate the polyhedral structure of the Periodic Event Scheduling Problem (PESP), which is commonly used in periodic railway timetable optimization. This is the first investigation of Chvátal closures and of the Chvátal rank of PESP instances. In most detail, we first provide a PESP instance on only two events, whose Chvátal rank is very large. Second, we identify an instance for which w...
متن کاملTrans-Canada Slimeways: Slime mould imitates the Canadian transport network
Slime mould Physarum polycephalum builds up sophisticated networks to transport nutrients between distant part of its extended body. The slime mould’s protoplasmic network is optimised for maximum coverage of nutrients yet minimum energy spent on transportation of the intra-cellular material. In laboratory experiments with P. polycephalum we represent Canadian major urban areas with rolled oats...
متن کاملVariation of radon progeny concentration over a continental location
Background: The variation of the radon progeny concentration in outdoor environment and meteorological parameters at fine resolution were studied for one year at a continental location, National Atmospheric Research Laboratory, Gadanki, India. Materials and Methods: The concentrations were measured using Alpha Progeny Meter by collecting air samples at a height of 1 m above the Earth&rsqu...
متن کاملHigh vowel /i y u/ in canadian and continental French: an analysis for a TTS system
This paper deals with the treatment of high vowels /i y u/ in Canadian French Text-to-Speech system. Among significant differences in the structure of the vowel system, we focused on two aspects in which high vowels behave quite differently in the two dialects of French: 1) the tenseness rule according to which the three vowels are systematically contrasted by the tense/lax feature in Canadian ...
متن کاملThe Canadian Pacific Railway Transforms Operations by Using Models to Develop Its Operating Plans
North American railways have traditionally practiced tonnage-based dispatching, running trains only when they have enough freight. As a result, their customer service and their use of crews, fixed assets, locomotives, and railcars are poor. Canadian Pacific Railway is using new decision-support tools developed in-house and by MultiModal Applied Systems to create a scheduled railway. These tools...
