I. Proposed Research Topic

The research of system simulation and its application.

II. Introduction
The simulation course not only provides students with the knowledge required to
effectively use simulation in the design and analysis process but also, through the use
of projects, gives students needed experience in proposal preparation and in research
management. A number of MATLAB-based examples, demonstrations and analysis
programs are being developed as a part of this effort.

Simulation is a way of imitating, and possibly predicting the behavior of a real world
system over time. Simulation is often used in modeling manufacturing systems, air
traffic control, telecommunication networks, and VLSI circuits. There are many
different types of simulation, discrete event simulation is one of the primary methods
for modeling a system as it evolves over time.

Over the past twenty years there has been considerable research and development of
simulation algorithms that execute efficiently in parallel. There are some distributed
simulation algorithms which can be executed over a heterogeneous network of
workstations, but most (parallel) algorithms have been developed for special
multiprocessor machines. Shared memory parallel computers are very expensive, a
4-processor shared memory multiprocessor may cost ten to twenty times as much as a
single processor desktop and will never result in more than a 4 times speedup over
sequential execution. In general, it is not possible to achieve more than an n-fold
speedup on n-processors. Often speedup is logarithmic in the number of processors
due to the increasing cost of communication between processors.
Simulation is a tool that can be used to help make decisions. For example, a scientist
might use simulation to decide whether a particular modification to the TCP protocol
will improve network throughput. This will require running multiple simulation
experiments since both protocols must be tested and compared under varied network
conditions.

So we must to find appropriate simulation algorithm and structure to imitate the real
world system and to show the process of system to the students directly.

III. Literature Review

Discrete Event Simulation

There are two books [1, 2] which have provided my primary background reading in
discrete event simulation. These were followed by a third book specific to the
implementation of parallel and distributed simulation systems [3]. In general, it is
desirable for simulations to execute as fast as possible, however; there may be some
situations, e.g. emulation [4], in which executing just fast enough to keep up with
real-time is adequate. My research focuses primarily on as fast as possible simulation.

Central Event List Algorithm

The central event list (CEL) algorithm is probably the most common sequential
synchronization algorithm. This algorithm maintains causal relationships by using a
single (global) priority queue to order the execution of all events. The smallest
timestamped event is removed from the central event list, simulation time is updated
to the timestamp of that event, and then the event is executed. Processing of an event
with timestamp t can only result in scheduling of new events with timestamps greater
than or equal to t. This guarantees that no causal relationships will be violated.

Parallel Discrete Event Simulation

The main challenge in writing a parallel simulation kernel is guaranteeing casual
correctness. Fujimoto [5] describes the local causality constraint (LCC) as follows.
A discrete-event simulation, consisting of logical processes (LPs) that interact
exclusively by exchanging timestamped messages obeys the local causality
constraint if and only if each LP processes events in non-decreasing timestamp
order.
The above condition is sufficient but not necessary to guarantee that no causality
errors occur. If two events are independent then it is not necessary to execute these
events in time stamp order. In a parallel simulation a synchronization mechanism is
required to ensure causal correctness for concurrently executed events. Reynolds [6]
introduced the terms risk and aggression to help classify the different synchronization
algorithms. Aggression is a property of synchronization algorithms which execute
events before causal ordering is guaranteed. Risk is a property of synchronization
algorithms which dispatch events before the causal order of the generating event is
guaranteed. Without aggression, there can be no risk.

Conservative Synchronization
Conservative synchronization algorithms strictly avoid causality errors by adhering to
the local causality constraint. The optimistic algorithms exhibit aggression and risk to
varying degrees, this requires that they detect and recover from any causality errors
that might occur. There are two main classes of conservative synchronization,
asynchronous and synchronous. Asynchronous algorithms must address the issue of
deadlock; synchronous algorithms avoid it by repeatedly starting and stopping the
simulation.

Deadlock Avoidance (Asynchronous)

Chandy, Misra [7], and independently Bryant [8] developed some of the first
conservative synchronization algorithms. These algorithms assume a static
specification of channels (the logical connections between communicating LPs). They
also assume that events are sent down a channel in non-decreasing timestamp order
(this allows an LP to determine a lower bound on the timestamp of the next event to
arrive on that channel). The channel clock is defined to be the timestamp of the first
event in the queue, or the timestamp of the last processed event if the channel is
empty.

Deadlock Detection & Recovery (Asynchronous)

Chandy and Misra presented an algorithm based on detection and recovery in [9],
again there was a lot of emphasis on the correctness of this algorithm and an
interesting property that the memory requirement was bounded and would be no
greater than for the corresponding sequential simulation.

Fujimoto [3] presents a version of the Dijkstra/Scholton algorithm for deadlock

detection. This algorithm assumes that there is a “controller LP” capable of
recognizing a deadlock situation. Given that all LPs are blocked (ie. no new events are
being generated) it is always safe to process the event in the system with the smallest
timestamp. The controller LP broadcasts a message asking each LP to report their
minimum timestamped event. Once the controller has this information it determines
the events which are safe to process, and instructs the corresponding LPs to begin
executing.

Synchronous
A synchronous simulation protocol cycles through two phases of execution. During
the global synchronization phase, each LP is able to determine which events are safe
to process. This is accomplished via a barrier synchronization operation, which
basically waits for all LPs to stop executing. During the event processing phase each
LP executes all of its “safe" events.

It might seem strange to keep starting and stopping the LPs, but this has an advantage
over certain asynchronous protocols. For example, a deadlock recovery/detection
algorithm (such as the one presented in the previous section) can degenerate into a
sequential computation if it takes a long time for the deadlock to finally occur. It is
possible that most of the simulation is deadlocked while a small portion continues to
make progress. A situation like this can drastically degrade simulator performance 1 .
On the other hand, a synchronous simulation protocol has more control over the
amount of computation performed during each cycle of execution.

A barrier is a construct for parallel programming that can be used to synchronize the
execution of multiple processes. Three different types of barriers are presented in [3]:
centralized barriers, tree barriers, and butter barriers. Centralized barriers require a
central controller (LP) and the technique does not scale well to a large number of LPs.
Tree barriers solve the scalability issue but still require broadcasting a message to
indicate when global synchronization has been achieved. The butter barrier is nice

because there is no need for a central controller. After each LP has performed log 2 N

pair wise barrier synchronizations global synchronization has been achieved.

The majority of my reading has been focused on discrete event simulation (DES) and
associated algorithms for its efficient parallel execution. I recognize that my survey is
still incomplete, I have not reviewed much of the literature specific to sequential
simulation algorithms. I will endeavor to correct this before proceeding further with
my research.

TOPIC:
LOCAL PATH PLANNING METHOD FOR MOBILE ROBOT
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND
Path planning is a key issue to successful applications of mobile robot systems. It is a
method for mobile robot to find a safe path to the target position even though there are many
obstacles. If there is no any prior knowledge about the environment, then the path planning
method for the mobile robot is called local path planning. Besides, there is also a global path
planning, which is used when information about the environment (like a map) has been given
priorly.
Obviously local path planning is much more difficult because the robot should try to get
the knowledge of the environment through the sensor data which is acquired in real-time and
often noisy. But this situation is often the one we faced in applying the mobile robot systems.
Many researchers have studied this problem and proposed many different approaches. In
1985, Khatib presented the concept of artificial potential fields, which was the first real-time
local path planning algorithm for mobile robots as well as for manipulators. How ever it has
many shortcomings like local minima problem and unstable motion under narrow
environment. In order to overcome these shortcomings, Borenstein then developed the Vector
Field Histogram (VFH), a method that looks for gaps in locally constructed polar
histograms .VFH was less likely to get trapped in local minima and allowed robots to travel
at faster speeds without becoming unstable. Due to its advantages, VFH became a popular
local path planning algorithm. However, many shortcomings has also been discovered later,
then they developes two improved version VFH+ and VFH* method. The underlying
problem is that purely local systems only consider the immediate effects of their selected
trajectory so it may lead to a undesirable trajectory. The VFH* method that uses look-ahead
verification to consider more than the robot's immediate surrounding may dealing with such
problematic situations. How ever it needs the map of the environment.
WHY I CHOSE THIS TOPIC
From Dec.2005, I become a member of soccer robot team of NPU and responsible for
path planning & obstacle avoidance model while the soccer robot competition is exactly
processed in a unkonwn and dynamic environment. So I chose this topic in order to develop a
local path planning algorithm that doesn’t need the map.

Bachelor Thesis “Dynamic Scheduling Oriented Artificial Immune System”

• The paper presents a Dynamic Scheduling Oriented Artificial Immune System
(DSO-AIS) on the analysis of the biology metaphors of AIS and various kinds of
AIS models and algorithms in several research fields. DSO-AIS is applied to
dynamic scheduling problems with typical manufacturing uncertainties including
fuzzy scheduling, task alteration, and machine breakdown. The procedures and
numerical examples prove the efficiency of DSO-AIS for solving dynamic
scheduling problems.

PROJECT: • Research Fund for the Doctoral Program of State Education Ministry:
Study on artificial immune based workshop scheduling
The project focuses on an immune based workshop scheduling and controlling
system, by applying natural immune principle into production and studying on
dynamic adapting scheduling algorithms. The research consists of enterprise
 manufacturing modeling, scheduling strategy and technology, immune principle and
immune algorithm, and the techniques to implement an intelligent scheduling
system.
As a participator, I proposed an immune evolution algorithm CHIEA(Clonal
selection and hyper mutations based immune evolution algorithm) for solving
deterministic job shop scheduling problems. A random permutation operator and a
consecutive mutation method of antibodies is introduced to extend the concept of
hyper mutations. The preference list based representation and the immune evolution
operator improves searching efficiency, accelerates convergence of the algorithm
and advances solutions generated. (More details in the paper Immune evolution
algorithm for deterministic job shop scheduling)

• The National High Technology Research and Development Program of China:

A web-based and re-configurable workshop management system
The project focuses on a web-based, re-configurable and custom-built workshop
management system, which can spread in discrete manufacturing plants. The main
research consists of business process reengineering, immune-genetic based dynamic
scheduling algorithms, re-configurable module architecture of the system, etc.
As a participator, I Designed and developed 2 sub systems, i.e. the scheduling
system and the process management system.
