Robust network design
As an equipment manufacturer for the mining and construction industries, Caterpillar's business is heavily impacted by the cyclicality of these two industries. To be competitive in the market while investing prudently to ensure shareholders' value, Caterpillar needs to make capacity decisions with …

Factors influencing bus network design
Bus network design and frequency setting, the highest level subproblems in the bus planning process, have long-term impacts on bus network performance. Improving network performance not only improves the attractiveness of public transport and thus ridership, but cost-effectiveness as well because …

Network design models for intermodal logistics
… explore the dynamics of intermodal hub-and-spoke networks, are presented. These models use transportation costs, fixed location costs, modal connectivity costs, modal transit times and service time requirements, for three modes of transportation: road, rail and air. The objective is to compare the …

Strategic Models in Supply Network Design
… introduce strategic modeling techniques into the network design problem. While investment in production capacity has long been approached as a critical strategic decision, the increasing need for robust, responsive supply capabilities has made it essential to take a network view, where multiple …

A Wireless Call Button Network Design
Traditional call button networks that control elevator systems utilize a wired connection for communication. The communication cables are run through the elevator shaft from one call button to another and finally to the controller on the roof. Installing this wired link is highly time consuming. In …

Information Network Design for Lean Logistics
… models are not sufficient for analyzing and designing supply chains. Models of supply chains must accurately capture their dynamic behavior, which is determined by the structure of the organization, and the policies adopted by management. System dynamics modeling provides a powerful framework …

Fairness in Communication and Computer Network Design
In communication networks, fair sharing of resources is an important issue for one main reason. The growth of network capacity is in general not matching the rapid growth of traffic. Consequently, the resources consumed by each user have to be limited. This implies that users cannot always be …

A robust optimization approach to network design
… thesis addresses the problem of logical topology design for optical backbone networks subject to traffic following a Gaussian distribution. The network design problem is broken into three tasks: traffic routing, capacity allocation, and link placement. The routing and capacity allocation problems …

Robust transportation network design under user equilibrium
We address the problem of designing a transportation network in the presence of demand uncertainty, multiple origin-destination pairs and a budget constraint for the overall construction cost, under the behavioral assumption that travelers optimize their own travel costs (i.e., the …
