Multi-agent Planning and Coordination for Automated Aircraft Ground Handling

Inspired by the vision of fully autonomous airside operations at Schiphol airport, this study aims to contribute to the short-term goal of automated aircraft ground handling. In this research, we design and evaluate a multi-agent system for planning of automated ground handling. There are two main components in the system, task allocation...

Vertical Collaboration in a Two-Level Supply Chain: An Agent-Based Modeling Approach

Collaboration in the supply chain is nowadays seen in the scientific community as the “next best thing” in supply chain optimization (Ballot, 2015; Barratt & Oliveira, 2001; Barratt, 2004; Ireland & Bruce, 2000). Although widely investigated and often mentioned in literature, the concept of supply chain collaboration is not precisely defined ...

Lucrative Promenades

The design proposal investigates the generation of a possible social and physical structure within the area of the former army campus of Kodra;thus a communal flexible space for people to meet, act, produce and socialize. The general result of this process was to investigate the implementation of computational techniques to generate a building...
