Abstract:
The use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is becoming ever more common by people or organisations who wish to get information about an area quickly and without a human presence. As a result, there has been a concerted effort to develop systems that allow the deployment of UAVs in disaster scenarios, in order to aid first responders with collecting imagery and other sensory data without putting human lives at risk. In particular, work has focused on developing autonomous systems to minimise the involvement of overstretched first responder personnel, and to ensure action can be taken by the UAV

Abstract:
Over the last decade infinite poles and zeros have been recognised as having fundamental relevance to the analysis of the dynamical behaviour of a system. Indeed even the classical theory of characteristic root loci alludes to the existence of infinite zeros without defining them as such whilst the significance of the infinite poles has more recently emerged in the study of non-proper systems.

This dissertation deals with modeling the radiative regime in vegetation canopies and the possible remote sensing applications derived by solving the forward and inverse canopy transport equation. The aim of the research is to develop a methodology (called "end-to-end problem solution") that, starting from first principles describing the interaction between light and vegetation, constructs, as the final product, a tool that analyzes remote sensing data for precision agriculture (ripeness prediction). The procedure begins by defining the equations that describe the transport of photons inside t

Abstract:
Wireless sensor networks are widely applied to many fields such as animal habitat monitoring, air traffic control, and health monitoring. One of the current problems with wireless sensor networks is the ability to overcome communication failures due to hardware failure, distributing sensors in an uneven geographic area, or unexpected obstacles between sensors. One common solution to overcome this problem is to place a minimum number of relay nodes among sensors so that the communication among sensors is guaranteed. This is called Relay Node Placement Problem (RNP). This problem has been pr

碩士<br>國立成功大學<br>工業與資訊管理學系<br>107<br>The Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) may be the only means by which to conduct coverage missions that search, monitor, or take photos from the air space over target ground areas that are too difficult to reach by ground manpower. Suppose we divided the air space into several virtual cells that cover all the target ground areas. Then, a scan mission on a target ground area can be done by a UAV flying over (i.e., covering) its corresponding virtual cell in air space for a specific period of time. In this research, we plan to route UAVs to cover all necessary vi

This thesis covers three main issues in content delivery with a focus on placement algorithms of replica servers and replica contents. In a content delivery system, the location of replicas is very important as perceived by a quotation: Closer is better. However, considering the costs incurred by replication, it is a challenge to deploy replicas in a cost-effective manner. The objective of our work is to optimally select the location of replicas which includes sites for replica server deployment, servers for replica contents hosting, and en-route caches for object caching.

碩士<br>國立中正大學<br>電機工程研究所<br>92<br>A proper capacitor placement technique can effectively enhance the power quality. This work presents a new approach for solving the capacitor placement problem and helps the dispatcher making policy decisions. To obtain the essential states of system conditions, such as bus voltages and feeder currents, this study utilizes the power flow analyses which are evaluated by a set of recursive equations to calculate the feeder currents and bus voltages. Then, a multi-objective algorithm is presented to solve the capacitor placement problem in a distribution system. T

Abstract:
Over the past few decades, there has been a significant need for the use of Uninhabited Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in both civilian and military applications. Nowadays, UAVs are becoming increasingly popular to perform hard missions that include surveillance, sensing (of, for example, chemical agents), acquiring weather data, and reconnaissance over oceanic and remote areas. Motivated by such importance of UAV missions, this thesis presents a new control methodology applied to a UAV path following problem in the longitudinal plane. This control methodology takes into account the actuator dynamics

Compared to flying traditional aircraft, the requirements of landing UAV site is low, the skill of UAV operation is ease, and UAV is capable to avoid the risk of human accident. Therefore, it is very suitable for alternative personnel to carry out a variety kinds of high-risk missions. Among these missions, aerial photography is one of the most popular application of unmanned aerial vehicles. In this paper, we investigated the uses of heterogeneous UAVs in aerial photography mis

We find that private equity offering firms had better improvement in operating performance than seasoned equity offering firms subsequent to the year of issue. Among private placement investors, insiders are familiar with the firm and are in a better position to resolve asymmetric information, so they can help firm improve the operating performance.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立交通大學<br>工業工程與管理系所<br>101<br>The quality of service (QoS) performance of wireless mesh networks (WMNs) is measured by the topology connectivity as well as the client coverage, both of which are related to the problem of router node placement (RNP), in which each mesh client is served as equal. In practice, however, mesh clients with different payments for the network services should be provided by different qualities of network connectivity and QoS. As a result, to respond to the practical requirements, this paper considers a more complicated RNP problem with service priority constraint
