Optimisation énergétique du flux de production de lignes de traitement thermique intégrées

Rolle: Partner/in

Requérant(e)s: Roger Alinovi, Codere, Route de Miécourt 12 CH-2942 Alle

Description du projet :

Le but est une approche algorithmique permettant de trouver des ordonnancements optimaux ou quasi-optimaux des différentes tâches de leur processus de production, basée sur des algorithmes mathématiques de recherche opérationnelle.

Spécifiquement, le problème d’ordonnancement en question consiste à associer, à chaque cycle (tâche) de la recette (succession de cycles) de chaque charge (ensemble de pièces à traiter), son heure d’exécution ainsi que le module (four, bac ou lavage) utilisé, de manière à minimiser une quantité qui peut être (selon les besoins clients), les temps morts sur les modules, la consommation d’énergie, la consommation maximale d’énergie ou encore le coût total de production.

Les contraintes à respecter comprennent: le non-chevauchement de deux cycles sur un module, le respect de la recette, les impossibilités de certaines successions four-bac, les indisponibilités temporaires de certains modules (maintenance), les dates de sorties au plus tard de certaines charges, les temps de déplacement et de manipulation des charges, de réchauffement/refroidissement des fours entre deux cycles.

Projet d'optimisation des transports en temps réel - Etude préliminaire / chèque InnoSuisse. Projet n° 31994.1 Inno-SBM
AGP

Rolle: Mitgesuchsteller/in

Requérant(e)s: VS - Institut Tourisme, Loubier Jean-Christophe, VS - Institut Tourisme

Financement: CTI

Description du projet : Le transport de marchandises est une activité incontournable et indispensable au bon fonctionnement de l'ensemble de l'économie. Pourtant, aujourd'hui, les petites et moyennes structures se retrouvent avec des marges de plus en plus faible. Les prix des transports ne cessant de baisser et les coûts, eux, ne faisant qu'augmenter, il devient difficile d'évoluer sereinement dans ce secteur. La solution, pour garantir l'avenir des entreprises de transports, doit se chercher du côté de l'optimisation de chaque kilomètre. Réussir à minimiser les voyages à vide est le défi auquel répond ce projet. Pour ce faire, un changement radical dans la manière de travailler, encore empirique aujourd'hui, doit être considéré et l'utilisation d'un nouvel outil informatisé, réel soutien et aide à la décision, devient indispensable. La solution proposée par ce projet est basée sur un algorithme, qui calcule, en temps réel, la meilleure décision à prendre pour chaque camion au moment T afin de minimiser au maximum les kilomètres à vide. Cette base de calcul, développée par l'institut de management et le GIS-LAB de la HES-SO Valais, permettra de répondre à la question suivante : « Où doit aller le camion en fonction des demandes et exigences des clients et selon l'emplacement et l'avancement des autres camions de la flotte ». Le but est d'avoir une vision globale sur l'ensemble des véhicules afin qu'ils soient chargés durant un maximum de kilomètres.

Nouvelles dimensions dans l'apprentissage interactif de l'anatomie radiologique
AGP

Rolle: Hauptgesuchsteller/in

Financement: 519,Economie d'entreprise; Santé; FNS-DORE; 519,Economie d'entreprise

Description du projet : En général les médecins praticiens et les professionnels de la santé ont peu accès à l'anatomie dans leur pratique clinique alors que ces notions d'anatomie deviennent de plus en plus importantes aujourd'hui étant donné la place prépondérante prise par les techniques d'imagerie. L'imagerie médicale a fait des progrès considérables ces dernières années et les diagnostics ainsi que le suivi des patients reposent de plus en plus sur ces technologies. De nos jours, tous les praticiens ont toutefois accès à l'imagerie de leurs patients. Les médecins ont appris à utiliser des outils informatiques nécessaires pour la visualisation et l'interprétation de ces images. Cependant, ils ne possèdent pas toujours toutes les notions et références indispensables à une bonne interprétation des images. Seuls les radiologues et spécialistes de l'imagerie acquièrent ces connaissances dans leurs pratiques courantes. D'autres praticiens n'ont pas l'opportunité d'acquérir cette expérience. L'apprentissage et l'accès aux notions d'anatomie peuvent faire l'objet d'outils informatiques spécialisés qui permettent non seulement de pratiquer un enseignement interactif, mais aussi d'être une assistance facilement accessible dans l'activité clinique de tous les jours. Dans ce contexte, notre projet vise à développer un outil innovateur dans l'apprentissage interactif de l'anatomie radiologique. A partir d'un logiciel d'analyse d'image existant dans le domaine publique et largement utilisé dans le monde, nous proposons de développer les outils et d'intégrer les données nécessaires permettant au professionnel de la santé ou à l'étudiant de visualiser en toute liberté l'anatomie du corps humain normal dans tous les plans de l'espace et en volume, avec sa corrélation avec les images radiologiques par résonnance magnétique (IRM) et par tomodensitométrie (TDM). S'appuyant entre autres sur l'intégration de collections d'images similaires au projet Visible Human (VHP), ce développement apportera dans la formation clinique un outil informatique professionnel simple et performant, nécessaire à l'étude autonome de l'anatomie radiologique. L'anatomie sera représentée par une série d'images numériques en couleur de section (coupe 2D) d'un corps congelé (cryosection). L'anatomie radiologique sera vue sous l'angle de l'imagerie médicale moderne et reposera sur des techniques d'imageries tomographiques comme la TDM et l'IRM. Les reconstructions informatiques 3D des coupes anatomiques et radiologiques devront nous permettre de réaliser des fusions ou « matching », c'est-à-dire une mise en correspondance point par point dans l'espace tridimensionnel de deux techniques différentes dont on fera superposer les volumes.

Integration of a human risk module into a risk management software
Wissenschaftlicher Artikel ArODES

Informatica economica,  2019, vol. 23, no. 3, pp. 5-15

Link zur Publikation

Zusammenfassung:

In the scientific literature and in practice, many questionnaires based on a myriad of measures have been designed and tested to measure and evaluate perceived work stress or employee involvement. The objective of our research is to identify the most significant elements of human risks and to combine them into a single score at the level of teams and departments. Indeed, for companies, what really matters are the stress or dissatisfaction factors that lead to harmful behavior that prevent managers and their teams from achieving their objectives. Based on this research, we are developing a module that will be incorporated into the Oxial software and will also be available as a stand-alone module. This module will collect and analyze the data to calculate a single score measuring the level of human risk. This aspect is very innovative, because no risk management software currently includes a module dedicated to human risks.

Dataset on a problem of assigning activities to children, with various optimization constraints
Wissenschaftlicher Artikel ArODES

Sacha Varone, Corentin Beffa

Data in Brief,  2019, vol. 25, pp. 1-4

Link zur Publikation

Zusammenfassung:

“Passeport Vacances”, abbreviated PV, is a set of leisure activities proposed to children to discover and enjoy during school holidays. During PV, activities are proposed several times, each one being an occurrence. This data set contains real data, collected by online registration during the summer of 2017. Children express their preferences for each available time slot. Organizers should assign activities to children by maximizing their expressed preferences, subject to several types of constraints: age limit, group size limit for each occurrence of an activity, diversification of the type of activities for each child, restrictions on costly activities, restrictions on the number of activities per period, and cost balancing. The CSV files in this data set represent the preferences of 634 children for 1121 activities over a two-week period. These data were used to develop the Morges 2017 Vacation Passport model, which is associated with the research article entitled “ “Passeport Vacances”: an assignment problem with cost balancing”.

Zusammenfassung:

Passeport Vacances is an offer for school-aged children to discover a set of activities during holidays. For more than 30 years, it has been an established social function in several countries, including Germany and Switzerland. Proposed activities might occur several times during the Passeport Vacances. The assignment of activities to children is computed in order to maximize the children’s preferences, as well as to balance each child’s incurred cost, toward an equity goal. There are several sets of constraints associated with the assignment problem: no overlapping activities assigned to the same child, minimal and maximal ages per activity, minimum number of children for opening an activity, maximal size of a group for each activity, no similar activities assigned to the same child, no already assigned ‘lifetime’-activity per child, and at most one activity per period and per child. We propose a binary linear programming model that describes the assignment problem, report CPU computation issues regarding the model implementation, and report numerical results based on a state-of-the-art MIP solver. Tests where conducted with real data from the 2016 edition of Passeport Vacances in Morges.

A unified framework for rich routing problems with stochastic demands
Wissenschaftlicher Artikel ArODES

Transportation Research Part B: Methodological,  2018, vol. 114, pp. 213-240

Link zur Publikation

Zusammenfassung:

We introduce a unified framework for rich vehicle and inventory routing problems with complex physical and temporal constraints. Demands are stochastic, can be non-stationary, and are forecast using any model that provides the expected demands and their error term distribution, which can be any theoretical or empirical distribution. We offer a detailed discussion on the modeling of demand stochasticity, focusing on the probabilities and cost effects of undesirable events, such as stock-outs, breakdowns and route failures, and their associated recourse actions. Tractability is achieved through the ability to pre-compute or at least partially pre-process the stochastic information, which is possible under mild assumptions for a general inventory policy. We integrate the stochastic aspect into a mixed integer non-linear program, illustrate applications to various problem classes, and show how to model specific problems through the lens of inventory routing. The case study is based on two sets of realistic instances, representing a waste collection inventory routing problem and a facility maintenance problem, respectively. We analyze the effects of our assumptions on modeling realism and tractability, and demonstrate that our framework significantly outperforms deterministic policies in its ability to limit the number of undesirable events for the same routing cost.

Link zur Publikation

Zusammenfassung:

We propose a new aspect of mobility that combines in a same journey and in real time a carpooling service and a traditional multi-modal transportation. This mix allows to improve and complete both services. The main idea of our approach is based on the traditional multi-modal path, in which we try to sequentially substitute some subpaths of traditional multi-modal transportation to carpooling, in order to decrease the rider's arrival time at his destination. For this purpose, we first defne a closeness estimation between the user's itinerary and available drivers. This allows to select a subset of potential drivers. We then compute sets of driving quickest paths, and design a substitution process. Finally, among all admissible solutions, we select a best one based on the earliest arrival time. We provide numerical results using geographical maps, real data and public transportation timetabling. Our numerical results show the effectiveness of our system, which improves rider's arrival time compared to the traditional multi-modal path. The running time of our approach remains reasonable to use real-time transportation application.

Integrating a heterogeneous fixed fleet and a exible assignment of destination depots in the waste collection VRP with intermediate facilities
Wissenschaftlicher Artikel ArODES

Iliya Markov, Sacha Varone, Michel Bierlaire

Transportation research part B: methodological,  February 2016, vol. 85, pp. 256-273

Link zur Publikation

Zusammenfassung:

We consider a complex recyclable waste collection problem that extends the class of vehicle routing problems with intermediate facilities by integrating a heterogeneous fixed fleet and a flexible assignment of destination depots. Several additional side constraints, such as a mandated break period contingent on tour start time, multiple vehicle capacities, and site dependencies are also included. This specific problem was inspired by a real-world application and does not appear in the literature. It is modeled as an MILP which is enhanced with several valid inequalities. Due to the rich nature of the problem, state-of-the-art solvers are only able to tackle instances of small to medium size. To solve realistic instances, we propose a multiple neighborhood search heuristic capable of systematically treating all problem features and general enough to respond to the varying characteristics of the case study regions for which it is intended. The results show that the heuristic achieves optimality on small instances, exhibits competitive performance in comparison to state-of-the-art solution methods for special cases of our problem, and leads to important savings in the state of practice. Moreover, it highlights and quantifies the savings from allowing a flexible depot assignment. The data from the state of practice comes from a company in the waste collection industry in Geneva, Switzerland.

Link zur Konferenz

Zusammenfassung:

We study a production scheduling problem, which adresses on the one hand the usual operational constraints such as the precedence of operations, time windows, delays, uniqueness of treatment, availability of resources, and waiting times. On the other hand, the problem takes into account possible restricted movements according to production orders. This problem is a variant of a flexible job shop scheduling problem with several types of sequence-dependent constraints. We consider additional sequence-dependent setup times, as well as sequence-dependent transportation and assignment restrictions. We propose a mixed integer programming model (MIP). It is based on the MIP model of a flexible job shop scheduling problem, in which we add those sequence-dependent constraints. We solve it with a general purpose MIP solver.

Measuring real time occupational stress in organizations via a digitalized risk management app

Link zur Konferenz

Zusammenfassung:

Various studies (e.g., European Agency for Safety and Health at Work, 2007) have shown the highly detrimental effects of toxic environments on human health and organizational performance. For organizations, the implication about stress is that it leads to harmful behaviors that prevent managers and their teams from achieving goals. In the literature, many questionnaires based on a variety of metrics have been developed and tested to measure and assess the quality of work life (i.e., stress, organizational justice, etc.). The goal of our original research was to identify the most meaningful items and combine them into a unique score and an effective decision-making module. In this new paper, we report on the development of a new app that we developed and used for the first time to regularly take a kind of temperature of job stress in two companies. A long process of trial and error was necessary to be able to collect very confidential information from employees, both anonymously and longitudinally, to measure human risk in the workplace objectively and globally. As a next step, our goal is for the organization to be able to provide a preventive risk response in case of identification of deterioration of occupational stress.

Digitized governance to mitigate human-related risks

Proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Informatics in Economy

Link zur Konferenz

Zusammenfassung:

Human workplace risk can be addressed as a business management risk and not only as a medical problem. According to Enterprise Risk Management (ERM), risk is what prevents the achievement of a business objective. The most famous ERM standards are COSO ERM and ISO 31000 and include all kinds of risk categories. However, no category specifically focuses on human risk as a business risk. Even though these risks are recognized by experts as significant risks, their identification at the global level of the company and especially their evaluation remain very complex. In this paper, we propose a brief literature review of models and questionnaires that make it possible to identify and probe these human risks at work. Our goal is to use proven scientific knowledge to create a regular, fast and ergonomic bottom-up data collection system to achieve an overall human risk score for companies. This score can then be integrated into an enterprise risk mapping and allow for better governance that also integrates human risks alongside more traditional risk categories such as operational, financial, strategic and compliance risks. The challenges of our research lie mainly in the relevant and simplified collection of company data and in the definition of an overall human risk score that will be based in a further research on advanced statistical methods.

Proceedings of the 17th Swiss Transport Research Conference

Link zur Konferenz

Zusammenfassung:

We introduce a unified modeling and solution framework for various classes of rich vehicle and inventory routing problems as well as other probability-based routing problems with a time-horizon dimension. Demand is assumed to be stochastic and non-stationary, and is forecast using any forecasting model that provides expected demands over the planning horizon, with error terms from any empirical distribution. We discuss possible applications to various problems from the literature and practice: from health care, waste collection, and maritime inventory routing, to routing problems based on event probabilities, such as facility maintenance where the breakdown probability of a facility increases with time. We provide a detailed discussion on the effects of the stochastic dimension on modeling and the solution methodology. We develop a mixed integer non-linear model, provide examples of how it can be reduced and adapted to specific problem classes, and demonstrate that probability-based routing problems over a planning horizon can be seen through the lens of inventory routing. The optimization methodology is heuristic, based on Adaptive Large Neighborhood Search. The case study is based on waste collection and facility maintenance instances derived from real data. We analyze the cost benefits of open tours and the availability of better forecasting methodologies. We demonstrate that relaxing the distributional assumptions on the error terms and calculating probabilities using simulation information has only a minor impact on computation time. Simulating the error terms on the final solution further allows us to verify the low level of occurrence of undesirable events, such as stock-outs, overflows or breakdowns, with a moderate impact on the routing cost compared to alternative realistic policies. What is more, simulating the objective of the final solution shows that it is an excellent representation of the real cost.

Link zur Konferenz

Zusammenfassung:

We consider a mix transportation problem, which allows to combine a multi-modal public and a ride-sharing transports, in a dynamic environment. The main idea of our approach consists in labelling interesting nodes of a geographical map with information about either riders or drivers, in so-called buckets. Based on the information contained in these buckets, we compute admissible ride-sharing possibilities. To restrict the needed amount of memory, among the different stops along a public transportation path, we only consider the transshipment nodes, where travellers have to make a change between two modes. Each of those stops are potential pick-up or drop-off stops for ride-sharing. We consider a drivers’ maximal waiting time, as well as the maximal driving detour time depending on the actual drive. Each new drive activates a search for new ride-sharing of existing riders. Each new ride activates another process which searches for potential drivers. Among all admissible ride-sharing possibilities, only those which best improve the earliest arrival time are selected. We provide numerical results using real road network of the Lorraine region (FR) and real data provided by a local company. Our numerical experiment shows a running time of a few seconds, suitable for a new real-time transportation application.

Zusammenfassung:

This article describes a multi-modal routing problem, which occurs each time a user wants to travel from a point A to a point B, using either ride-sharing or public transportation. The main idea is to start from an itinerary using public transportation, and then substitute part of this itinerary by ride-sharing. We first define a closeness estimation between the user’s itinerary and available drivers. This allows to select a subset of potential drivers. We then compute sets of driving quickest paths, and design a substitution process. Finally, among all admissible solutions, we select the best one based on the earliest arrival time. We provide numerical results using benchmarks based on geographical maps, public transportation timetabling and simulated requests and driving paths. Our numerical experiment shows a running time of a few seconds, suitable for a new real-time transportation application.

It is based on a discrete mixture of count data models representing populations depositing dierent quantities in the containers, thus reflecting a realistic underlying behavior. It is tested on real data coming from ultrasound sensors mounted inside the containers and exhibits better in- and out-of-sample performance compared to a simple count data model assuming only one deposit quantity. The purpose of the mixture model is to forecast container waste levels at a future date when collection will take place. It thus becomes the first-step ingredient in a framework for ecient waste collection optimization.
