The use of timber or wood raw material in Germany has in- creased during the last years. Due to a changing market with more competitors in the same sector and higher logistics costs for raw material supply the involved parties in the timber logis- tics supply chain are facing new challenges to stay competitive on the market. To meet the challenges of the new market the information and material flow processes in the timber logistics supply chain need to be improved. To optimize the timber logis- tics supply chain from forest to production site a platform for order planning and information \"Holz-Opera\" has been devel- oped by the University of Applied Sciences Wildau. The plat- form offers a low-budget solution for a prompt exchange of information between all parties from the timber logistics supply chain achieving efficient information and material flow proc- esses. For timber carriers the use of the platform enables an optimization of transport tours and a reduction of empty runs. The following article gives an overview about the role of logistics processes in the raw material supply and the use of information technology in timber logistics and focuses on the development and the functionality of the platform \"Holz-Opera\".","PeriodicalId":306564,"journal":{"name":"2009 2nd International Symposium on Logistics and Industrial Informatics","volume":"118 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125035878","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objetive of this process is to find a combination of aero-generators that maximizes the annual profit obtained from a wind farm, measured as the generated power in one year. Simulated annealing (SA) is a metaheuristic for global optimization that we will use here to search in the large landscape of possible solutions. Maximizing the generated power depends on the distribution of the aero-generators and the geometry of the wind farm. In this article we analyze several case studies according to different wind conditions. We will show optimal solutions and prove that they are better concerning the present best result in the literature.","PeriodicalId":306564,"journal":{"name":"2009 2nd International Symposium on Logistics and Industrial Informatics","volume":"469 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131989317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thereby unique constraint violations are possible if the client has older data or only part of the data available offline. When inserting data into the server database in an online scenario, a unique constraint violation can be recognized and corrected immediately. However, when being offline a possible later violation might go unrecognized because not all data is available to check against. Later, when synchronizing or merging an offline database with the server database, a violation will occur and the synchronization process will have to handle it. Many synchronization and optimistic data replication ap- proaches treat a unique constraint violation as a conflict. The advantage of this treatment is that the same logic can be used for resolving conflicts and unique constraint violations. However, sometimes conflict resolution can only resolve a violation by overwriting an existing version, or it is not able to resolve the violation at all. By implementing a discrete unique constraint violation resolution, the available information is utilized and overwriting data can be avoided. In most cases the violation can even be resolved automatically. This paper identifies two classes of unique constraint violations and provides a resolution approach for each class. The classifica- tion is based on the experiences collected in a project for a social insurance company in which such violations occurred during the synchronization process. These violations were examined in detail and are presented in this paper.","PeriodicalId":306564,"journal":{"name":"2009 2nd International Symposium on Logistics and Industrial Informatics","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124601733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The most widely used methods are continuous synchronization schemes. In a continuous synchronization scheme, chaotic systems are coupled to each other continuously such that synchronization errors converge to zero. In this paper, chaos synchronization in coupled discrete- time dynamical systems is presented. Especially, practical impulsive synchronization scheme for 3 discrete time chaotic systems is shown. Simulation results finally demonstrate the effectiveness of the method. Experimental results show that chaotic and hyperchaotic systems can be synchronized by impulses sampled from one or two state variables. The impulsive synchronization can be applied to almost all chaotic and hyperchaotic systems even in the case when continuous synchronization systems fail to work. The example of data transmission based on simple discrete-time chaotic systems is also presented.","PeriodicalId":306564,"journal":{"name":"2009 2nd International Symposium on Logistics and Industrial Informatics","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126972474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In opposition to the automation and control domain, where different field bus technologies are competing, the automotive domain has identified similar problems, founded a corporate consortium and introduced a new universal bus system. This new bus system is called FlexRay and is supposed to be the successor of CAN and analog bus systems for in-car applications. Similar to the introduction of CAN within the automation domain FlexRay may become the standard for distributed automation and control applications.

The degree of temper rolling determines the mechanical properties of the steel sheet and is highly influenced by the rolling force or strip tension. Since mathematical models generate unsatisfactory results for the calculation of these two process parameters, other methods for the presetting of tempers mills must be used. The parameter presetting of temper mills is of prime importance because it reduces the effort of tuning these parameters later. Hence, the production costs are reduced by minimizing the amount of wasted material that does not fulfill the quality requirements. Genetic Programming (GP) is an evolutionary inspired and population based modeling technique and has been successfully applied in different contexts. In this paper we present first results of advanced genetic programming concepts on large datasets from a temper mill in comparison to linear regression (LR), support vector machines (SVMs) and previous analysis on the datasets. The use of GP shows an improvement compared to previous work, but is still inferior to models obtained by SVMs. A major advantage of GP compared to support vector machines is that the identified models are mathematical formulae which can be interpreted and enable knowledge generation about the temper rolling process.","PeriodicalId":306564,"journal":{"name":"2009 2nd International Symposium on Logistics and Industrial Informatics","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132805876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
