Comparing the performance of A*-, D*- and Floyd-Warshall-algorithm: a case study for a grid-divided intersection
Within the project the D*-algorithm and optionally the Floyd-Warshall-algorithm shall be implemented. The base scenario for the following case study is a path calculation for cars in a grid-divided intersection. The project focusses on maximizing the throughput of cars while minimizing the energy consumption via minimal holding times. The implementation shall be compared with an A*-implementation incorporating memory consumption, calculation steps and robustness against environmental changes.

Optimal Capacity Adjustment of Job Shop Systems with RMTs
This project focuses on optimizing the capacity adjustment of job shop systems with Reconfigurable Machine Tools (RMTs). First, the model of a job shop system with RMTs should be developed as a mixed integer optimization problem. Then Control Parameterization Enhancing Technique (CPET) will be implemented to optimize the capacity adjustment. Moreover, the properties of CPET shall be analysed and compared to existing techniques.

Increasing the Efficiency of a Smart Energy Cell following the Solar Altitude with a 2-Axis-Rotor
We consider a smart cell consisting of a solar cell and an accumulator controlled by a microcontroller. The smart cell shall be extended by a control mechanism for the solar cell which follows the solar altitude to increase the efficiency of the system.
