Receiving a heart transplant is a matter of life and death for many patients. Every time a heart becomes available, a "match run" is created to generate a list of transplant candidates ranked by an ...

Online algorithms are central to solving resource allocation and matching challenges in dynamic environments where decisions must be made without complete knowledge of future events. Research in this ...

A resource allocation algorithm proposed by Luss and Gupta is extended by the introduction of a numerical method for the optimal distribution of a continous resource among preselected activities as an ...

Control allocation algorithms for quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) avoid incorporating relatively minor aerodynamic effects such as ‘blade flapping' and induced drag in order to simplify the ...

Incorporating multiple constraints such as task completion time, UAV payload capacity, and flight range into path optimization algorithms allows for more efficient search patterns.

Over the course of six months in 2016, writer James Bloodworth worked for four companies: Amazon, in one of its warehouses; a home-care provider; insurer Admiral’s call centre; and Uber. Drivers for ...
