Fast Convergence in Electric Vehicle Smart Charging

We address the problem to control the charging schedules in a large population of plug-in electric vehicles, considered as heterogeneous noncooperative agents, with different strongly convex cost functions weakly coupled by a common pricing signal, convex charging constraints, e.g. plug-in times, deadlines and capacity limits. We assume a...

Game Level Design using Procedural Natural Systems

Due to an increase in scale and amount of detail needed for next gen games, the time required to design a game world has increased dramatically. Even though more advanced tools have become available, designing a game world is still largely done by hand. One area that suffers substantially from this is the design of large scale natural phenomena...
