(author), Yorke-Smith, N. (author)Logistics planning is a complex optimization problem involving multiple decision makers. Automated scheduling systems offer support to human planners; however state-of-the-art approaches often employ a centralized control paradigm. While these approaches have shown great value, their application is hindered in dynamic settings with no central...conference paper 2022

Fransman, J.E. (author), Sijs, J. (author), Dol, H.S. (author), Theunissen, E. (author), de Schutter, B. (author)In this work, the novel algorithm Bayesian Dynamic Programming Optimization Procedure (B-DPOP) is presented to solve multi-agent problems within the Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem framework. The Bayesian optimization framework is used to prove convergence to the global optimum of the B-DPOP algorithm for Lipschitz-continuous...conference paper 2019

Fransman, J.E. (author), Sijs, J. (author), Dol, H.S. (author), Theunissen, E. (author), de Schutter, B. (author)In this paper, Mine Counter-Measures (MCM) operations with multiple cooperative Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are examined within the Distributed Constraint optimization Problem (DCOP) framework. The goal of an MCM-operation is to search for mines and mine-like objects within a predetermined area so that ships can pass the area through a...conference paper 2019

van der Weijst, R. (author), van Keulen, T. (author), Willems, F.P.T. (author)Advanced control concepts are required to maximize the fuel-efficiency of Diesel engines and to comply with emission legislation. The aim of this paper is to develop a controller that fully utilizes the fuel-path and air-path hardware, and is adaptive for real-world disturbances. The control design comprises a feedback control system, which uses...conference paper 2018

Fransman, J. (author), Sijs, J. (author), Dol, H.S. (author), Theunissen, E. (author), de Schutter, B.D. (author)DCOP (Distributed Constraint optimization Problem) is a framework for representing distributed multi- agent problems. However, it only allows discrete values for the decision variables, which limits its application for real-world problems. In this paper, an extension of DCOP is investigated to handle variables with continuous domains....conference paper 2018

van Leeuwen, C.J. (author), Pawełczak, P. (author)We propose a novel incomplete cooperative algorithm for distributed constraint optimization problems (DCOPs) denoted as Cooperative Constraint Approximation (CoCoA). The key strategy of the algorithm is to use a semi-greedy approach in which knowledge is distributed amongst neighboring agents, and assigning a value only once instead of an...conference paper 2017

van Leeuwen, C.J. (author), Yildirim, K.S. (author), Pawelczak, P. (author)Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) technologies aim at getting rid of cables used by consumer devices for energy provision. As long distance WPT is becoming mature, the health impact of WPT becomes increasingly important to consider. In this paper we look at how to maximize the wireless power transfer to remote devices, while maintaining a safe level...conference paper 2017

ter Heege, J.H. (author), de Bruin, G. (author)The sealing capacity of faults is one of the main controlling factors determining column heights of hydrocarbons in structural traps and potentially bypassed gas in undrained reservoir compartments. Limited available data in early exploration phases often hampers full incorporation of fault seal analysis and fault zone permeability in...conference paper 2015
