We propose a smooth path planning method for autonomous mobile robots. Due to nonholonomic constraints by obstacle avoidance, the smooth path planning is a complicated one. We generate smooth path that is considered orientation of robot under nonholonomic constraints. The proposed smooth planning method consists of two steps. Firstly, the initial path composed of straight lines is obtained from V-graph by Dijkstra's algorithm. Then the initial path is transformed by changing the curve. We apply the cardinal spline into the stage of curve generation. Simulation results show a performance of proposed smooth path planning method.

Proposed are model and its solution algorithm for determining the minimum number of high speed exits and their locations. While the previous researches on exit location aimed to minimize the average runway occuancy time (ROT) of an aircraft mix, the proposed approach is to find the minimum number of exits required to meet maximum allowable ROT. The rationale behind the approach is that the capacity of a runway increases as the ROT decreases down to some value, but not any more even though the ROT keep decreasing below the value. Hence, a maximum allowable ROT might be set up without declining the capacity. The problem is transformed into a shortest path problem on a specially constructed network and Dijkstra's labeling algorithms is employed to solve the problem A hypothetical example is provided to illustrate how the algorithms solves the problem.

We propose a new method for shortest path planning of mobile robots. The topological information of the graph is obtained by thinning method to generate the collision-free path of robot. And the travelling path is determined through hierarchical planning stages. The first stage generates an initial path by use of Dijkstra's algorithm. The second stage then generates the final path by use of dynamic programming (DP). The DP adjusts the intial path to reduce the total travelling distance of robot. Simulation results are presented to verify the performance of the proposed method.

To mitigate the performance degradation caused by performance anomaly, a number of channel assignment algorithms have been proposed for multi-rate wireless mesh networks. However, network conditions have not been fully considered for routing process in these algorithms. In this paper, a joint scheme called Multi-rate Dijkstra's Shortest path - Rate Separated (MDSRS) is proposed, combining routing metrics and channel assignment algorithm. In MDSRS, the routing metric are determined through the synthesized deliberations of link costs and rate matches; then the rate separated channel assignment is operated based on the determined routing metric. In this way, the competitions between high and low rate links are avoided, and performance anomaly problem is settled, and the network capacity is efficiently improved. Theoretical analysis and NS-3 simulation results indicate that, the proposed MDSRS can significantly improve the network throughput, and decrease the average end-to-end delay as well as packet loss probability. Performance improvements could be achieved even in the heavy load network conditions.

오랜 세월동안 위대한 이동수단을 만들어내고자 하는 인간의 끓은 오늘날 눈부신 각종 운송기구를 만들어 내는 결실을 얻고 있다. 자동차 네비게이션 시스템도 그러한 결실중의 한 예라고 할 수 있을 것이다. 지능적으로 판단하고 정보를 처리할 수 있는 자동차 네비게이션 시스템을 부착함으로써 한단계 발전한 운송수단으로 진화할 수 있을 것이다. 이러한 자동차 네비게이션 시스템의 단점이라면 한정된 리 소스만으로 여러 가지 작업을 수행해야만 하는 어려움이다. 그래서 네비게이션 시스템의 주요 작업중의 하나인 경로를 추출하는 경로추출(Route Planing) 작업은 한정된 리 소스에서도 최적의 경로를 찾을 수 있는 지능적인 방법이어야만 한다. 이러한 경로를 추출하는 작업을 하는 데 기존에 일반적으로 쓰였던 두 가지 방법에는 Dijkstra's algorithm과 A* algorithm이 있다. 이 두 방법은 최적의 경로를 찾아 낸다는 점은 있지만 경로를 찾기 위해서 알고리즘의 특성상 각각, 넓은 영역에 대하여 탐색작업을 해야하고 또한 수행시간이 많이 걸린다는 단점과 또한 경로를 계산하기 위해서 Heuristic function을 추가적인 정보로 계산을 해야 한다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 적은 탐색 영역을 가지면서 또한 최적의 경로를 추출하는 데 드는 수행시간은 작으며 나아가 동적인 교통환경에서도 최적의 경로를 추출할 수 있는 최적 경로 추출방법을 강화학습의 일종인 Q- Learning을 이용하여 구현해 보고자 한다.

This study developed searching network reduction algorithm for reduce shortest path searching time. Developed algorithm is searching nodes that have the including possibility of less weights path than temporal path that consists minimum number of nodes and minimum sum of the straight line distances. The node that has the including possibility of shortest path is the node that the sum of straight line distance from start node and straight line distance to target node is less than the value that temporary path's weights divided by minimum weights units. If searching network reconstitutes only these nodes, the time of shortest path searching will be reduced. This developed algorithm has much effectiveness that start node and target node is close in large network.

In this paper, several network algorithms were tested to find an optimal one for telecommunication network design. Algorithms such as Dijkstra's shortest path algorithm, Ford-Bellman's shortest path algorithm, Prim's minimum spanning tree algorithm, and Kruscal's minimum spanning tree algorithm were reviewed and compared in terms of feasibility and resulted network construction cost. Then an optimal algorithm that is most suitable for telecommunication network design was selected. For more specific and quantitative analysis of the selected algorithm, it was implemented to a real telecommunication network construction site. The analyzed results showed that the suggested design method when compared with the conventional one, reduced the network construction cost considerably. The total network length estimated by the conventional method were 5267 meters while the suggested method resulted in 4807 meters. Thus the new method reduced the total network length by 8.7 percent which is equivalent to 97,469,000 Won of construction cost. Considering the frequent telecommunication network constructions, due to new urban developments in the nation, the economic benefit of the suggested telecommunication network design method will be significant. In addition to the construction cost savings, the suggested telecommunication network design procedure possesses several other economic benefits. Since the design procedure can be standardized and automatized, it can reduce the design cost itself and the skill acquirement periods required for new or inapt design crews. Further, due to the standardized and automatized design procedure, any telecommunication network design results can accessed more objectively.

With the progress of IT and mobile positioning technologies, various types of location-based services (LBS) have been proposed and implemented. Finding a shortest path between two nodes is one of the most fundamental tasks in many LBS related applications. So far, there have been many research efforts on the shortest path finding problem. For instance, $A^*$ algorithm estimates neighboring nodes using a heuristic function and selects minimum cost node as the closest one to the destination. Pruning method, which is known to outperform the A* algorithm, improves its routing performance by avoiding unnecessary exploration in the search space. For pruning, shortest paths for all node pairs in a map need to be pre-computed, from which a shortest path container is generated for each edge. The container for an edge consists of all the destination nodes whose shortest path passes through the edge and possibly some unnecessary nodes. These containers are used during routing to prune unnecessary node visits. However, this method shows poor performance as the number of unnecessary nodes included in the container increases. In this paper, we focus on this problem and propose a new border line-based pruning scheme for path routing which can reduce the number of unnecessary node visits significantly. Through extensive experiments on randomly-generated, various complexity of maps, we empirically find out optimal number of border lines for clipping containers and compare its performance with other methods.

The rapid change of industrial structure causes to increase distribution cost and requires necessity of physical distribution system urgently. Traffic situation is getting extremely worse and traffic jam has led to increasing expense of physical distribution delivery which dominates 20% of distribution cost. In this situation, the shortest and most suitable path search system is required by modern people who must waste a lot of time for moving with a car or on the street as well as many companies. for these reasons, we developed the shortest-path-searching system applying the dijkstra algorithm which is one of the effective shortest path algorithm to GIS, and it was constructed by considering realistic urban traffic and the pattern of street in a physical situation. Also, this system was developed to be updated weight data automatically, considering the dynamic change of traffic situation such as a traffic information service which will be served in real time. Finally, we designed this system to serve on web by using MapObjects IMS.
