Assembly Planning by Subassembly Decomposition Using Blocking Reduction

Solving railway line planning problems using a decomposition algorithm

The passenger line planning is a process of strategic long-term decision-making problem in the field of railway passenger planning. A line is a route between starting point and destination with certain stops, which has a certain frequency of train schedule. A new solution based on decomposition algorithm has been proposed in this paper, which is defined in a master problem and two sub problems....

Accelerating the Composite Power System Planning by Benders Decomposition

This paper presents an application of Benders decomposition to deal with the complexities in the simultaneous Generation Expansion Planning (GEP) and Transmission Expansion Planning (TEP). Unlike the power system operation fields of study, the power system planning methods are not expected to be fast. However, it is always preferable to speed up computations to provide more analysis options for...

Factored Planning using Decomposition Trees

Improving AI planning algorithms relies on the ability to exploit the structure of the problem at hand. A promising direction is that of factored planning, where the domain is partitioned into subdomains with as little interaction as possible. Recent work in this field has led to an detailed theoretical analysis of such approaches and to a couple of high level planning algorithms, but with no p...
