  • Publication number: 20190220827
    Abstract: Techniques are described that facilitate disruption control in complex schedules comprising a plurality of interdependent tasks. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises forecasting, by a device operatively coupled to a processor, probability distributions of time delays added to respective tasks of a complex schedule using a stochastic model for the respective tasks, current delay information associated with the respective tasks, and one or more defined mitigating actions that reduce or eliminate time delay attributed to a delay component of the stochastic model. The method further comprises, determining, by the device, loss information regarding losses, wherein losses can include costs attributed to the time delays and costs related to the one or more defined mitigating actions. The method can further comprise determining, by the device, a recommendation regarding implementation of the one or more defined mitigating actions based on the loss information.

  • Patent number: 10155500
    Abstract: A local area security system interfaces with one or more vehicles to provide enhanced security. The vehicles have vehicle sensors which may further help determine a presence of potential threat within a vicinity of the local area security system. The multiple vehicle network may communicate with each other to expand the vicinity of the local area security system, share equipment, computing resources, and information in the determination of the presence of the potential threat. The battery powered vehicle may employ various methods to conserve battery power while coupled to the local area security system.
