    • A PSO approach for robust aircraft routing 

      Ben Ahmed, Mohamed; Mansour, Farah Zeghal; Haouari, Mohamed ( IEEE Computer Society , 2016 , Conference Paper)
      To mitigate the impact of unpredictable disruptions, airlines are seeking to proactively design schedules that incorporate some robustness features. In this paper, we propose a novel simulation-optimization approach using ...

    • Design and analysis of flexible joints for a robust 3d printed prosthetic hand 

      Alkhatib, Farah; Mahdi, Elsadig; Cabibihan, John-John ( IEEE Computer Society , 2019 , Conference Paper)
      In war-affected regions in the world, limb loss is one of the leading injuries. The need for low-cost, low-maintenance prostheses arises. The rapid developments in 3D printing allows us to investigate robotic or prosthetic ...

    • Engineering students' attitude towards engineering ethics education 

      Balakrishnan, Balamuralithara; Tarlochan, Faris ( IEEE Computer Society , 2015 , Conference Paper)
      Engineering ethics covers the scope of engineering standards and how these standards should be applied in daily engineering practice Engineering ethics combines societal, economic and environmental factors in order to ...

    • Fault tolerant tactile sensor arrays for prosthesis 

      Teja, Subrahmanya; Mekie, Joycee; Cabibihan, John-John; Thakor, Nitish V.; Kukreja, Sunil L. ( IEEE Computer Society , 2016 , Conference Paper)
      The demand for sensor networks has grown significantly over the last decade. These networks operate as a single unit, accumulating information from individual sensor nodes. Due to a matrix-like topology of these arrays, a ...

    • Robust Resource Investment Problem with Time-Dependent Resource Cost and Tardiness Penalty 

      Hattab, A.; Haouari, M. ( IEEE Computer Society , 2016 , Conference Paper)
      In this paper, the classical Resource Investment Problem (RIP) is extended to consider time-depended resource cost instead of time-independent resource cost. The problem is named as the Resource Investment Problem with ...

    • Solving a Bus Routing Problem Arising in Doha 

      Aljundi, A.; Khatib, M.A.; Kharbeche, M.; Haouari, M. ( IEEE Computer Society , 2022 , Conference Paper)
      The generic variant of the school bus routing problem requires finding a set of routes that cover a predefined set of student pickup locations in order to minimize travel time while satisfying various constraints. In this ...

    • Towards enhanced control of upper prosthetic limbs: A force-myographic approach 

      Rasouli, Mahdi; Chellamuthu, Karthik; Cabibihan, John-John; Kukreja, Sunil L. ( IEEE Computer Society , 2016 , Conference Paper)
      Reliable decoding of a user's intention is a key step to control prosthetic devices. Force myography (FMG) is often used to assess topographic force patterns resulting from volumetric changes of activated muscles. However, ...
