Managing mixed traffic with autonomous vehicles – a day-to-day routing allocation scheme by Guo, Zhihong, Wang, David Zhi Wei, Wang, Danwei

“…Specifically, we assume that all travelers are bounded rational and AV users are willing to accept route allocation with route travel cost not exceeding HV users’ indifference band. Therefore, the best-case bounded rationality user equilibrium (BRUE) flow pattern is in principle the most desirable traffic state out of all the BRUE solutions. …”

Free field realisation of boundary vertex algebras for Abelian gauge theories in three dimensions by Beem, C, Ferrari, AEV

“…We derive the free field realisations by bosonising the elementary symplectic bosons and free fermions and then calculating the relevant semi-infinite cohomology, which can be done systematically. An interesting feature of our construction is that for certain preferred free field realisations, the outer automorphism symmetry of the vertex algebras in question (which are identified with the symmetries of the Coulomb branch in the infrared) are made manifest.…”

Examine the usage of the mechanism of ATM to implement the new features offered by IPv6 by Shanmugam Sakthivel Shanmugam.

“…This dissertation describes a mechanism for adapting IPv6 multicast feature and its base protocols to ATM networks while maintaining the complete functionality and semantics of the IPv6 protocol. This is done by defining an IPv6-ATM convergence layer which posses functionality to preserve all the IPv6 multicast concepts and functionality while still taking advantage of the unique capabilities of ATM.…”
