Title:

The Sputnik of Servgoods: Autonomous Vehicles

Abstract:

In an earlier paper [Tien 2015], the author defined the concept of a servgood, which can be thought of as a physical good or product enveloped by a services-oriented layer that makes the good smarter or more adaptable and customizable for a particular use. Adding another layer of physical sensors could then enhance its smartness and intelligence, especially if it were to be connected with each other or with other servgoods through the Internet of Things. Such sensed servgoods are becoming the products of the future. Indeed, autonomous vehicles can be considered the exemplar servgoods of the future; it is about decision informatics and embraces the advanced technologies of sensing (i.e., Big Data), processing (i.e., real-time analytics), reacting (i.e., real-time decision-making), and learning (i.e., deep learning). Since autonomous vehicles constitute a huge quality-of-life disruption, it is also critical to consider its policy impact on privacy and security, regulations and standards, and liability and insurance. Finally, just as the Soviet Union inaugurated the space age on October 4, 1957, with the launch of Sputnik, the first man-made object to orbit the Earth, the U. S. has inaugurated an age of automata or autonomous vehicles that can be considered to be the U. S. Sputnik of servgoods, with the full support of the U. S. government, the U. S. auto industry, the U. S. electronic industry, and the U.S. higher educational enterprise.

Title: 
Deep learning applications in traffic and transportation

Abstract:

The talk is to discuss recent interesting subject in deep learning technique and its application in traffic flow prediction. Deep learning is a machine learning algorithm that attempt to learn in multiple levels, corresponding to different levels of abstraction. Alternatively, the main advantage of deep learning is about learning multiple levels of representation and abstraction. It is typically used to abstract useful information from data. The levels in these learned statistical models correspond to distinct levels of concepts, where higher-level concepts are defined from lower-level ones, and the same lower level concepts can help to define many higher-level concepts. The concepts can be applied in prediction and decision making in different areas.

Title

Order picking – A critical function in supply chain management

Abstract

Order picking is a warehouse function which deals with the retrieval of items from their storage location in order to satisfy a certain given demand. It arises because incoming articles are received and stored in (large-volume) unit loads while (internal or external) customers order small volumes (less-than-unit loads) of different articles. Order picking is critical for managing supply chains efficiently, since underperformance results in an unsatisfactory customer service (long processing and de-livery times, incorrect shipments) and high costs (labor cost, cost of additional and/or emergency shipments).

In this presentation, the author will give an overview of planning problems and corresponding methods for the reduction of cost and the improvement of customer service in picker-to-product systems. In particular, the following central planning issues will be addressed: Item location, order batching, and picker routing.

Title

Resilience and Sustainability of Container Supply Chains – a risk analysis perspective

Abstract

Risk research represents an important challenge for the resilience and sustainability of container supply chains (CSCs) due to climate change, terrorism threats and an increasing amount of economic upheaval in the past decade. Its foci are being expanded from classical safety, through security to climate adaptation areas. Addressing risks of different features requires integration across disciplines and across research methodologies. Currently, we lack the critical understanding of which kinds of risk schemes can most effectively harness science and technology for achieving long-term resilient and sustainable CSCs. This work aims at introducing a novel total risk management programme which enables the quantification, integration and communication of risk information from different areas and facilitates the movement of risk culture from a traditional reactive single dimensional scheme towards a new proactive multiple dimensional regime. The presentation is then followed by detailed risk analysis work in two research streams: 1) maritime security resilience assessment and 2) port adaptation to climate change. The work will address the significant methodological issues associated with resilience and sustainability sciences particularly with reference to risk analysis under high uncertainty.

Title

Logistics Consideration in International Trade

Abstract:

Over the past several decades, there has been a substantial increase in international trade. Firms have increasingly sourced products from foreign countries and expanded their sales into foreign markets. However, increased trade has important implications for firm performance, largely due to longer and more complex supply chains. The results of two papers are presented that highlight how increased international operations impact a key cost center for many manufacturing firms, notably inventory costs. A greater reliance on imports and exports is found to be associated with higher inventory levels. However, further findings show that the establishment of operations in emerging markets may also lead to improved performance.


 

        Lei Ji, Professor, the President of the Fourth and Fifth Chinese Society of Optimization, Overall Planning and Economic Mathematics, Director of the Emergency Management of Specialized Committee in Chinese Society of Optimization, Overall Planning and Economic Mathematics, Professor and Ph. D supervisor in Institute of Policy and Management, CAS. From 1965 to 1985, he was one of the assistants of Professor Luogeng Hua, a famous mathematician in our country, in the field of application orientation research.        

During 1960s, his research interesting include the theory and applications of Optimization and Overall Planning.  In 1980s, he applied Optimization and Overall Planning to decision theory and proposed models and methods of project systems analysis for the state's major projects and development project, which greatly improved the level of decision analysis and decision making. In 1990s, he spent major of his time in Chinese Society of Optimization, Overall Planning and Economic Mathematics and had great contribution to the society.

Recent years, professor Lei Ji led a multi-disciplinary research team to study the applications of the theory on data mining, evaluation, diagnosis, optimization on dynamic resource allocation in industries such as finance, civil aviation, electric power etc.  

Since 2003, professor Lei Ji engaged in the research on theory and applications of emergency management. He advocate and organize the Emergency Management of Specialized Committee in Chinese Society of Optimization, Overall Planning and Economic Mathematics. He put forward a new research direction of dynamic game of network technology and published a book emergency management (the book was published in 2006 by Higher Education Publishing House, and was selected as a textbook in the Graduate University of Chinese Academy of Sciences). His research group has done many works on the theory and applications of public safety and safety management. The research topics include emergency management system, emergency plan management, resource allocation and layout, scheduling, and applications of emergency management in practice. Recently, his group devoted themselves to solve the safety problem faced by civil aviation enterprises, developed a theoretic framework, some mathematical models and quantitative analysis methods to analyze the accidents occurring production, accident symptom and unsafe events. These works laid foundation for scientific and effective management of safety production. Their research has been applied gradually in a civil aviation enterprise.
