Classification and analysis of longwall delays
Spectacular production rates have been achieved by certain U.S. longwalls, and yet a large number of longwall operations have failed to meet anticipated production targets. This study attempts to identify the primary factors which contribute to the production shortcomings of many marginal longwall …

Characterization and prediction of air traffic delays
This thesis presents a new model for predicting delays in the National Airspace System (NAS). The proposed model uses Random Forest (RF) algorithms, considering both temporal and network delay states as explanatory variables. In addition to local delay variables that describe the arrival or …

Noise and delays in adaptive interacting oscillatory systems
In this thesis, we explore the global behavior of complex systems composed of interacting local dynamical systems, each set on a vertex of a network which characterizes the mutual interactions. We consider heterogeneous arrangements, meaning that for each vertex the local dynamics can be different. …

Effects of reinforcement delays on procrastination in pigeons
Procrastination has been defined as the choice of a larger, later work requirement over a smaller, sooner work requirement. In one experiment (Mazur, 1996), pigeons chose a later-onset work requirement over an earlier-onset work requirement when work requirements were identical and reinforcement …

The Effect of Airline Scheduling on Airport Delays
… hub airports in the United States causing many delays in the nation’s air traffic control system. Of the large hub airports in the United States a convenience sample was taken to ensure the needed data was present. Schedule data for the time period of May 2004 – June 2004 was collected and …

Consensus in multi-agent systems with time-delays
… its convergence properties with respect to time delays in the local state update are characterized. The convergenc e properties of this algorithm depend upon a tuning parameter that an be made arbitrary small to prove stability of the networked system. Simulations have been presented to …

Estimating time delays between irregularly sampled time series
… often dark, and the accurate measurement of time delays set the scale to measure distances over cosmological scales. For our purposes, this means that we have to estimate a time delay between two or more noisy and irregularly sampled time series. Estimations have been made using statistical …

Estimating the true extent of air traffic delays
Most air traffic delay measures assess delays relative to schedule. Over the past decades, however, airline schedules have been adjusted to take into account airspace congestion and yield better on-time performance. In that context, delay measures that are using scheduled times as a benchmark are …

On Reducing Delays in P2P Live Streaming Systems
… of long playback latency and long churn-induced delays. First of all, many streaming applications, such as IPTV and video conferencing, have rigorous constraints on end-to-end delays. Moreover, churn-induced delays, including delays from channel switching and streaming recovery, in current P2P …
