The growing awareness of global warming promotes great interest in investigating the magnitude, spatial, and temporal patterns of the major greenhouse gas (CO2, CH4, and N2O) emissions in the earth systems. The Greenhous ...
Gregarious Path Decomposition of Some Graphs
(2011-07-21)
Let G be a simple graph and f(v) a positive integer for each vertex v of G. Form G^f by replacing each v by a set F(v) of f(v) vertices, and each edge uv by complete bipartite
graph on bipartition (F(u); F(v)). Can we ...
GridPick: A High Density Puzzle Based Order Picking System with Decentralized Control
(2014-01-09)
We develop a novel semi-automated order picking system called GridPick that enables high levels of throughput, space usage, and flexibility. The system uses unit sized conveyor modules in grid architecture to bring requested ...
