    摘要: A computer implemented method of allocating a set of communications network resources to resource consumers in a digital communications system can include generating a set of multiple allocation schemes; iteratively applying a genetic algorithm to the set of allocation schemes to generate, at each iteration, a new set of allocation schemes as a generation of allocation schemes based on a preceding generation; and, responsive to a predetermined stopping condition for the iteration, assigning resource consumers to resources in the communications system in accordance with an allocation scheme in a most recent generation determined to satisfy a ranking condition.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to predicting blockages in underground ducts. According to one aspect, there is provided a computer-implemented method of identifying one or more locations along a route for an underground duct which indicate a blockage risk, the route extending between two ends, the method including obtaining a terrain elevation profile for the route; estimating a duct elevation profile for the route based on the terrain elevation profile; and predicting one or more blockage risk locations along the route by determining where water entering the duct from each of the two ends would settle, based on the duct elevation profile.

    摘要: A computer implemented method of routing multiple resource carriers to exchange resources at multiple exchange points. The resource carriers have different quantity capacities for a resource and each exchange point has a geo-location. The method includes: iterating a genetic algorithm, having a stopping condition based on a characteristic indicative of a cost of the subset, modelling usage of proper subsets of the carriers. Each iteration of the genetic algorithm includes: defining, for each carrier in the subset, a set of exchange points based on geo-locations, an objective exchange point that the carrier must visit, and the carrier's capacity; evaluating the characteristic for the subset of carriers; and responsive to the characteristic, selecting the subset as a prospective optimal subset and determining, for each carrier in the prospective optimal subset, an optimum route through the exchange points including the objective exchange point. The prospective optimal subset is selected over multiple iterations of the genetic algorithm such that a current prospective optimal subset is selected as an optimal subset having associated an optimum route for each carrier in the optimal subset.
