چکیده

Following Karp's discrete Dynamic Programming (DP) approach, this work extends the sequential model for monadic DP to the parallel case. We propose general parallel DP algorithms for pipeline and ring networks. The study of the optimality of these algorithms leads us to the introduction of new classes of multistage automata. However, the important class of Polyadic Dynamic Problems is out of the scope of this theory. Based on the concept of tree automaton, a new theory covering both Sequential and Parallel Dynamic Programming Polyadic Programs is presented. Monadic Programs appear as a particular case of this new theory. A large number of experiments have proved that the schemes proposed in this work lead to ecient implementations.

Improving the Energy Management of Parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle by Dynamic Programming Using Electro-Thermal Model of Battery

In this paper, an offline energy management system (EMS) is proposed for parallel hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). The proper energy management system is necessary for dividing torque between electrical motor and Internal Combustion Engine (ICE). The battery is a crucial component of hybrid electric vehicles and affects significantly the cost and the performance of the whole vehicle. The primar...

Adding Syntax to Dynamic Programming for Aligning Comparable Texts for the Generation of Paraphrases

Multiple sequence alignment techniques have recently gained popularity in the Natural Language community, especially for tasks such as machine translation, text generation, and paraphrase identification. Prior work falls into two categories, depending on the type of input used: (a) parallel corpora (e.g., multiple translations of the same text) or (b) comparable texts (non-parallel but on the s...

A fuzzy mixed-integer goal programming model for a parallel machine scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup times and release dates

This paper presents a new mixed-integer goal programming (MIGP) model for a parallel machine scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup times and release dates. Two objectives are considered in the model to minimize the total weighted flow time and the total weighted tardiness simultaneously. Due to the com-plexity of the above model and uncertainty involved in real-world scheduling probl...

Fast Cellular Automata Implementation on Graphic Processor Unit (GPU) for Salt and Pepper Noise Removal

Noise removal operation is commonly applied as pre-processing step before subsequent image processing tasks due to the occurrence of noise during acquisition or transmission process. A common problem in imaging systems by using CMOS or CCD sensors is appearance of  the salt and pepper noise. This paper presents Cellular Automata (CA) framework for noise removal of distorted image by the salt an...
