One of them is the integrated team task assignment and orienteering problem (TAOP). The TAOP can be seen as an extension of the well-known team orienteering problem (TOP). In the classical TOP, a homogeneous fleet of UAVs has to select and visit a subset of customers in order to maximize, subject to a maximum travel time per route, the total reward obtained from these visits. In the TAOP, a number of different tasks (customer services) have to be assigned to a fleet of heterogeneous UAVs, while the best routing plan must also be determined to cover these services. Since factors such as weather conditions might influence travel times, these are modeled as random variables. Reliability issues are also considered, since random times might prevent a route from being successfully completed before a UAV runs out of battery.","PeriodicalId":6692,"journal":{"name":"2020 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"10 1","pages":"1324-1335"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82595717","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}

However, there are some concerns with this modeling approach. One concern is how to integrate strategic group formation, into ABM, without imposing macro-level aggregation rules. Another concern is whether the computerized agents’ behavior is reflective of actual human behavior. Collins and Frydenlund developed a hybrid modeling approach to address the first concern in 2018. The focus of our paper is on the second concern, in the context of the hybrid model. An experiment was conducted to help determine whether a person’s experiences affect their behavior and whether their behavior is similar to those generated by the hybrid model. The experimental results confirmed these two assertions. Our experiment used a standard cooperative game-theoretic game, called the glove game, as its base scenario.","PeriodicalId":6692,"journal":{"name":"2020 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"1016-1026"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83084580","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 stability constraint in the pallet loading problem is highly important due to its impact on the efficiency, security, and resulting costs of an air cargo company. In information systems that support pallet loading, physical simulations provide a realistic approximation of a pallet’s stability. However, current approaches neglect the opportunity to integrate physical simulations in underlying solvers. In this research, we propose and compare two approaches for integrating a physical simulation as a fixed component of the problem-solving heuristic and include irregular shapes. Our results achieve runtimes that meet air cargo requirements; therefore, assumptions about the cargo, e.g., shape assumptions, can be relaxed.","PeriodicalId":6692,"journal":{"name":"2020 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"20 1","pages":"1312-1323"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90323558","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}

If unforeseeable events are common, real-time decisions are necessary to maximize the performance of the manufacturing process. Pre-trained AI-based decision support offers promising opportunities for such time-critical production processes. Here, we explore the effectiveness of deep reinforcement learning for real-time decision making in a car manufacturing process. We combine a simulation model of a central production part, the line buffer, with deep reinforcement learning algorithms, in particular with deep Q-Learning and Monte Carlo tree search. We simulate two different versions of the buffer, a single-agent and a multi-agent one, to generate large amounts of data and train neural networks to represent near-optimal strategies. Our results show that deep reinforcement learning performs extremely well and the resulting strategies provide near-optimal decisions in real-time, while alternative approaches are either slow or give strategies of poor quality.","PeriodicalId":6692,"journal":{"name":"2020 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"38 1","pages":"3032-3044"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83861706","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}

Our model integrates multiple factors, including food production, food trade, population, and civil conflict, and determines their interdependencies based on shared inputs or outputs. We find that severe food price shocks, precipitated by multiple breadbasket failures, can severely impact a country’s GDP and its ability to purchase and consume a sufficient amount of food, resulting in an increase in civil conflict and related casualties. A sharp population increase, as potentially caused by an immigration surge, was found to have a similar impact, though not as strong.","PeriodicalId":6692,"journal":{"name":"2020 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"35 1","pages":"715-726"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86330172","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}

We also illustrate the positive impact of this novel approach executing a set of DEVStone synthetic benchmarks and comparing a state-of-the-art simulation engine with an updated version that implements the chained algorithm.

To that extent we propose a new data-driven discrete-event simulation model based on data from a French university hospital to predict bed and staff requirements. We propose a case study to illustrate the tool’s ability to monitor bed occupancy in the recovery unit given the admission rate of ED patients during the pandemic of Sars-Cov-2.

Complex decisions need to be made regarding how to assign assets to liabilities in such a way that the overall benefit is maximised over a time horizon. In addition, the risk of not being able to cover the liabilities at any given time must be kept under a certain threshold level. This optimisation challenge is known in the literature as the asset and liability management (ALM) problem. In this work, we propose a biased-randomized (BR) algorithm to solve a deterministic version of the ALM problem. Firstly, we outline a greedy heuristic. Secondly, we transform it into a BR algorithm by employing skewed probability distributions. The BR algorithm is then extended into a simheuristic by incorporating Monte-Carlo simulation to deal with the stochastic version of the problem.","PeriodicalId":6692,"journal":{"name":"2020 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"123 1","pages":"2093-2104"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85673879","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}

An alternative approach is to send multiple rovers, which can insure against failure of one or more rovers.

In this paper, we present an ontology-based approach to simulate a multi-rover planetary exploration mission, with a focus on resilience, adaptation, heterogeneity, and reconfigurability. We present an ontology that describes multiple rovers along with an inventory of their parts shipped with a lander. Our approach shows that having the ontology-based simulations help in complex scenarios such as to loan parts from inventory, and salvaging a damaged rover for good parts.","PeriodicalId":6692,"journal":{"name":"2020 Winter Simulation Conference (WSC)","volume":"33 1","pages":"254-265"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87921623","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}
