  1. 1. Dynamic Optimization for Agent-Based Systems and Inverse Optimal Control

    Author : Yibei Li; Xiaoming Hu; Per Enqvist; Yishao Zhou; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Inverse optimal control; formation control; differential game; credit scoring; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Abstract : This dissertation is concerned with three problems within the field of optimization for agent--based systems. Firstly, the inverse optimal control problem is investigated for the single-agent system. Given a dynamic process, the goal is to recover the quadratic cost function from the observation of optimal control sequences. READ MORE

  2. 2. Optimization of Just-in-Time Sequencing Problems and Supply Chain Logistics

    Author : Gyan Thapa; Sergei Silvestrov; Anatoliy Malyarenko; George Fodor; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Just-in-time; JIT sequencing; apportionment; product rate variation; output rate variation; algorithms; heuristics; supply chain; logistics; queueing; non-linear integer programming; Mathematics Applied Mathematics; matematik tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : This dissertation presents a comprehensive and comparative progress in sequencing approaches of mixed-model just-in-time (JIT) sequencing problem together with discrete apportioment problem (DAP). The goal of JIT sequencing problem (JITSP) is to keep the rate of usage of parts as constant as possible along the assembly lines, and the goal of DAP is to divide a given integer number of delegates proportionally among the states or the parties according to their population or votes.

    Abstract : This dissertation is concerned with three topics within the field of optimal control and estimation in dynamical agent-based systems, with potential applications that meet both engineering and societal needs. Firstly, the inverse optimal control problem is studied. READ MORE

  4. 4. Development of an Interactive E-learning Management System (e-LMS) for Tanzanian Secondary Schools

    Author : Ellen Kalinga; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; ICT; Tanzania; Secondary Schools; e-Learning; Software Engineering; UML; OOSA D; MDA; PIM; PSM; LMS; Open Source; Customization; Replication; Mirroring; Focus Group Discussion; mode 2; Triple Helix Processes;

    Abstract : e-Learning, defined as the use of information and communications technology (ICT) for supporting the educational process, has motivated Tanzania to apply ICT in its education systems. Tanzanian secondary schools which are geographically and socially isolated face a number of problems, including a way to get learning materials. READ MORE

  5. 5. Hybrid e-learning for Rural Secondary Schools in Uganda

    Author : Peter Okidi Lating; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; e-learning; rural ICT implementation; Participatory methodology; feminist technoscience;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis is concerned with the development of appropriate tools and implementation of hybrid e-learning to support science and mathematics education of female students in typical rural advanced-level secondary schools. In Uganda few rural female students participate in technology and engineering education in tertiary institutions because they perform poorly in science and mathematics subjects at advanced secondary school level of education.
