Embodiment
First, for ease of understanding, to RTS (the Real Time used as the distribution control mode of elevator Scheduling, real-time schedule table) illustrated with A algorithm.
(RTS)
RTS be set the ladder riding hall calling for approx representing to produce in the future imaginary ladder riding hall calling (imagination calling), Except traffic control off-balancesheet also evaluates the mode of the response for imagination calling.In this case, it is necessary to from not only for Xindeng The ladder riding hall of note calls (calling that distribution requires) but also which carriage is allocated temporarily to for imagination calling is definite Rise, carry out the prediction (operation prediction) of run schedule.Therefore, there is the pattern distributed temporarily if the number of packages of imagination calling increases Numerous property.
In the case where being provided with x imagination calling for c platform carriages, interim allocation model is c(x+1)It is a.
For example, in the cluster management system with 2 carriages (A machines and B machines), imagination calling is being set to 2 In the case of, interim allocation model is 8 as shown in Figure 1.If increasing the number of units of carriage and/or the number of packages of increase imagination calling, Then pattern quantity can explosively increase.For example, if 12 groups manage and imagination calling is set to 3, then pattern quantity is 20736.
In this way, evaluated in the rts including imagination calling, if so the number of units of carriage becomes more, to definite point The time is needed untill with carriage.
(basic condition of distributive judgement)
In the rts, with do not respond allocated calling, the calling of distribution request, imagination calling all interim distribution Pattern is object, obtains the square value of non-response time predicted value, using the square value and commenting as the interim allocation model Value.
For a certain interim allocation model, having distributed calling has A parts, will distribute when not responding of i of calling for each Between predicted value be set to rai, the non-response time predicted value of the calling for distribution request is set to rn.In addition, imagination calling has F Part, r is set to by the non-response time predicted value for calling i relative to each imaginationfi
The RTS evaluations of estimate E of interim allocation model is expressed as following mathematical expression 1.
... (mathematical expression 1)
The non-response time means the time for being registered in distribution carriage and being responded from ladder riding hall calling, as follows Obtain.
■ for allocated calling, obtain from ladder riding hall calling be registered in the current elapsed time and estimate from The sum of this required time (prediction arrival time) untill responding to distribution
Callings (newly generated ladder riding hall calling) of the ■ for distribution request, obtains arriving since then of estimating to interim distribution Required time (prediction arrival time) untill responding
■ is called for imagination, and the required time untill distribution responds temporarily (is predicted and reached from estimating Time) in subtract time obtained by the value that was produced after several seconds of imagination calling
In addition, the value of RTS evaluations of estimate is lower, it is considered as better interim allocation model.
By the above method, RTS evaluations of estimate are obtained for all interim allocation models.Moreover, extraction evaluation of estimate becomes most Small interim allocation model.By the interim allocation model, practically carried out to being assigned with the carriage of calling of distribution request temporarily Distribution output.This is the basic condition of RTS.
But if merely performing this method, need more processing time.Therefore, by A algorithm described below come Cut down calculation amount.
(A algorithm)
A algorithm is one of algorithm for being used for realization RTS modes.The A algorithm passes through as the interim distribution of evaluation object Pattern tapers to promising pattern and is evaluated, so as to cut down calculation amount.In addition, " A " of " A algorithm " is without special meaning Justice.1 in the polyalgorithm that will merely A, B, C be named as ... is called " A algorithm ".
Fig. 2 is the figure for the processing step for representing to apply the A algorithm in the case of A algorithm in RTS.With with 2 carriages Exemplified by the cluster management system of (A machines and B machines).
Individually interim allocation model it will be known as " node ".For a certain node, further additional 1 calls and is faced When distribution and generate new node.New node will be generated referred to as " to be unfolded ".By setting the upper limit to the number for carrying out the expansion, The time is calculated so as to limit.Explore node as much as possible and can obtain more preferable run schedule, so being managed as group Performance is favourable.
As shown in Fig. 2, in the feelings being applied to A algorithm in the cluster management system with 2 carriages (A machines and B machines) Under condition, become following such processing step.
(1) calling (being " the ladder riding hall calling for being actually subjected to distribution " in figure) and vacation for not distributing distribution request temporarily are obtained Think the run schedule of the state of any calling of calling (being " imaginary ladder riding hall calling " in figure).It is set to " start to save Point ".
(2) in the case of the calling of distribution request is allocated temporarily to A machines and in the case of being allocated temporarily to B machines, The run schedule of A, B machine is obtained respectively.For obtained dispatch list, RTS evaluations of estimate are calculated.In addition, RTS here The computational methods of evaluation of estimate (described in detail later) different slightly from above-mentioned basic skills.
(3) in the interim allocation model for completing evaluation, the node of RTS evaluations of estimate minimum is set to expansion source node.
(4) obtain that further additional 1 imagination calls and distributing temporarily in the case of distribute temporarily from expansion source node Pattern (node expansion).Whole carriages for that can distribute imagination calling temporarily, generate child node respectively.
In the example of Fig. 2, by " allocation model 1 " is set to expansion source node.It will be exhaled from the expansion source node by the 1st imagination Making the situation for being allocated temporarily to A machines be set to, " allocation model 3 ", " allocation model is set to by the situation for being allocated temporarily to B machines 4”。
(5) the work predetermined number of times of above-mentioned steps (3) (4) repeatedly.
(6) in the time point terminated repeatedly of above-mentioned steps (5), the node of extraction RTS evaluations of estimate optimal (minimum).
(7) in the node extracted, the carriage of the interim calling for being assigned with distribution request of selection is used as " distribution carriage ".
(computational methods for applying the RTS evaluations of estimate in the case of A algorithm)
In A algorithm, the RTS evaluations of estimate of interim allocation model are compared among the nodes, are elected as evaluation of estimate is small Source node is unfolded, persistently carries out the processing of node expansion.At this time, between the node as comparison other, evaluation is become sometimes The number distributed temporarily of the object of non-response time is different.
For example, in fig. 2,2 non-response times are have rated in " start node ".In " allocation model 1 ", " distribution mould 3 non-response times are have rated in formula 2 ", " allocation model 3 ", " have rated 4 non-response times in allocation model 4 ".
The number of packages (number of packages distributed temporarily) for the non-response time that have rated is more, then RTS evaluations of estimate are bigger.Therefore, only The small node of the number of packages that distributes temporarily is chosen as expansion source node.Therefore, called for the imagination do not distributed temporarily, it is assumed that do not ring It is identical with " average non-response time " between seasonable, and corrected value is added in RTS evaluations of estimate.
Allocated calling is A parts, will be set to r for each non-response time predicted value for having distributed iai, will for point The non-response time predicted value of calling with request is set to rn.Imagination calling is F parts, the imagination that will be assigned with temporarily in the node The number of packages of calling is set to G parts, will be set to r for the non-response time predicted value of each imagination calling ifi
The RTS evaluations of estimate Ea of interim allocation model is expressed as following mathematical expression 2.
... (mathematical expression 2)
Here, P is " average compensation value ", is set to square of average non-response time.(F-G) represent imagination calling in, The number of packages that the node does not distribute temporarily.Value as obtained by the value for being somebody's turn to do (F-G) is multiplied by average compensation value P is added to RTS evaluations of estimate On, so that supplemented with the evaluation of estimate for unrated imagination calling.
In the step of A algorithm, the pattern for the midway also distributed temporarily increase is evaluated.X is being provided with to c platforms carriage In the case of a imagination calling, the sum of interim allocation model is changed into (c(x+2)- 1) ÷ (c-1) is a.
For example, in the cluster management system with 2 carriages (A machines and B machines), imagination calling is being set to 2 In the case of, interim allocation model is illustrated in figure 3 15.Compared to Figure 1, the pattern of calling is not distributed temporarily comprising a part, It is envisaged that pattern quantity increase.
In the rts, the processing repeatedly shown in above-mentioned steps (5) is limited to preassigned number.Therefore, do not estimate To the situation that all interim allocation model is evaluated.But one of the evaluation of estimate by only strictly selecting to be got well Partial mode is evaluated, so as to obtain the result close to optimal evaluation of estimate in a short time.
The number of work (execution of step (3) (4)) shown in progress above-mentioned steps (5) is defined as " node expansion Number ".In above-mentioned steps (4), the node that 1 is called and is allocated temporarily to each carriage is generated respectively.Therefore, if carrying out u times Node is unfolded, then is changed into evaluating the interim allocation model of u × c+1 parts.Here, the number of units of carriage is set to c.It is in addition, a Also the start node before start node expansion is included in number.
For example, in the case where having 4 carriages and having 3 imagination callings, if 21 minor node expansion are carried out, in A algorithm In can be evaluated in 341 patterns using 85 patterns as object.To face in contrast, there are 256 in the idea of Fig. 1 When allocation model.Therefore, by the application of A algorithm, can be cut down as the pattern of evaluation object to about 1/3rd.
(applications of the RTS to the cluster management system of elevator)
Next, the situation that RTS is applied in the cluster management system of elevator is illustrated.
The cluster management system of elevator, which has, is all together the control that group manages the overall shared disk (group's host) of control and each machine Disk.Disk is shared to be connected with can carrying out information exchange with the control panel of each machine.RTS is being applied to the elevator of such structure Cluster management system in the case of, it is contemplated that (a) centralized Control, (b) decentralised control, (c) be scattered+centralized Control (do not apply A to calculate Method), (d) it is scattered+centralized Control (applying A algorithm).
(a) centralized Control
Centralized Control is by the intensive A algorithm that RTS is individually performed in group's host, group's host of the information of each machine (carriage) Method.
The figure for the step of Fig. 4 is the centralized Control for representing RTS.Share disk 11 be group's host, information can be exchanged with it is each Control panel 12a, 12b ... the connection of number machine.
(1) access evidence is examined and seized with shared
Prior to allocation processing, share disk (group's host) 11 from control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine obtain car position and/ Or call the run schedule such as the state of registration, the prediction arrival time for reaching each floor.
(2) evaluation result examined and seized with sharing and taken Expert Rules etc.
Disk 11 is shared to transmit the generation of distribution request to control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine.The control panel of each machine 12a, 12b ... provide the evaluations such as RTS to shared disk 11 and handle required information.
The main project of information described below.
The calling of distribution request is assigned to prediction arrival time in the case of each machine, reaching each floor by ■ temporarily
The evaluation result of ■ Expert Rules
So-called Expert Rules be predict arrival time beyond control targe, comprising for example avoid crowded carriage and/or It is energy saving etc..
(3) A algorithm is performed with shared disk
Disk 11 is shared individually to perform A algorithm and carry out the postitallation evaluation of each machine.The run schedule of the present situation of each machine, The state before calling for interim distribution distribution request, can be collected by above-mentioned steps (1), for being assigned with temporarily The situation of desired calling is distributed, can be collected by above-mentioned steps (2).
While imagination calling is distributed temporarily to each machine while the A algorithm carried out, is individually performed by sharing disk 11.Calculated in A There is selection in method next by the processing of the node of expansion.In this case, can appoint from the node that whole explorations is completed The selection of meaning ground.The step of therefore, it is possible to as being illustrated in Fig. 1, performs A algorithm.
(4) distribution carriage is determined with shared disk
Share in disk 11, using the evaluation result of RTS and/or the evaluation result of Expert Rules, determine distribution carriage.Separately Outside, the evaluation result of Expert Rules obtains in above-mentioned steps (1) from control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine.
There is following such the strengths and weaknesses in the centralized Control.
(advantage)
■ is concentrated at 1 position and handled, and institute is so as to simply install RTS.
■ can apply A algorithm in the form of former state, so as to the section next to be explored of highest accuracy selection Point.
■ makes the processing load of control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine be inhibited.
(shortcoming)
■ processing, which concentrates on, shares disk 11, so cpu load memory usage amount is all very nervous.It cannot expect with 1 piece Control base board is sufficiently evaluated.
■ is when shared disk 11 is shut down, it is difficult to performs A algorithm with control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine.
(b) decentralised control
Decentralised control is the method for the A algorithm for disperseing execution RTS with the control panel of each machine.In the example of Fig. 5, in A~C Control panel 12a~12c of number machine is dispersed with the processing of A algorithm.
Control panel 12a~12c of each machine, predicts the feelings that the calling of distribution request is assigned to itself number machine temporarily first Operation under condition.At this time, the operation prediction data do not distributed temporarily to other number machine in the case of the calling of distribution request is obtained.
Herein, the starting point for the A algorithm implemented with control panel 12a~12c of each machine is set to " only distribution request Calling is assigned to the situation of itself number machine temporarily " under allocation model.Moreover, selected by A algorithm next by expansion Node, can only select to derive from from the allocation model " only the calling of distribution request is assigned to the situation of itself number machine " temporarily under The pattern gone out.
The figure for the step of Fig. 6 is the decentralised control for representing RTS.Share disk 11 be group's host, information can be exchanged with it is each Control panel 12a, 12b ... the connection of number machine.
(1) it is predetermined that operation is exchanged between the control panel of each machine
Prior to allocation processing, car position and/or calling are regularly exchanged between control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine The run schedule such as the state of registration, the prediction arrival time for reaching each floor.
(2) it is made the fortune calling of distribution request to be assigned to itself number machine temporarily in the case that in the control panel of each machine Row dispatch list
If producing distribution request, the operation of each machine is made as described below with control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine Dispatch list.
■ is made the dispatch list of itself number machine in the case of the calling of distribution request is assigned with temporarily.With interim point The prediction arrival time of timing can be calculated by existing processing.
In the case of callings of the ■ for not distributing distribution request temporarily, the dispatch list of other number machine is made.Without interim point The prediction arrival time of timing, is previously obtained by the information exchange in above-mentioned steps (1).
(3) A algorithm is implemented for object with imagination calling in the control panel of each machine
Control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine, for object, optimal pattern is explored using A algorithm only with imagination calling. Using from by exploring the RTS evaluations of estimate of evaluation of estimate that obtained optimal interim allocation model calculates as itself number machine.Into One step, control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine carry out the evaluation of Expert Rules.RTS evaluations of estimate are concentrated with Expert Rules evaluation of estimate In shared disk 11.
(4) distribution carriage is determined in shared disk
Share disk 11 to combine RTS evaluations of estimate with Expert Rules evaluation of estimate, determine that the calling of final distribution distribution request is (new Ladder riding hall call) carriage.
There is following such the strengths and weaknesses in the decentralised control.
(advantage)
The control panel and column processing A algorithm of ■ each machines, so treatment effeciency improves.
■ cannot be participated under the situation of allocation processing even in shared disk, also easily perform RTS.
(shortcoming)
■ also evaluates the run schedule distributed temporarily to other number machine in the case of imagination calling in A algorithm.Therefore, The control panel needed in each machine keeps the run schedule of whole machine, consumes more storage region.
(c)+centralized Control (not applying A algorithm) is disperseed
Scattered+centralized Control is only to evaluate all interim distribution moulds as object using itself number machine with the control panel of each machine The run schedule of formula, evaluated with shared disk whole machine whole allocation models method.Herein, without using A algorithm.
That is, above-mentioned (a), (b) method in, by using premised on A algorithm make consider.But in order to cut down calculation amount, It is also contemplated for different thinkings.The pattern count distributed temporarily seems more, this is because cluster management system to be integrally set to object, is divided Some calling is allocated temporarily to situation some carriage.
If considered so that carriage is only 1, the calling imagination calling for distribution request, there is no " to which A's machine distributes " the problem of, and the problem of only exist " whether being distributed to itself number machine ".It is therefore contemplated that after dividing situation The quantity of interim allocation model is not c(x+1)It is a but 2(x+1)It is a.
Therefore, consider that 2 will be divided into the operation prediction of imagination calling as described below.Processing 1 is decentralized processing, Processing 2 is centralized processing.
Processing 1:In the control panel of each machine, the calling imagination that distribution request is only made using itself number machine as object is exhaled The interim allocation model of whole cried, and evaluate the run schedule (operation prediction) of the interim allocation model.
Processing 2:In shared disk, using the evaluation result by the obtained each machine of above-mentioned processing 1, system is managed as group System is overall, calculates the allocation evaluation value of whole allocation models of whole machine.
The figure for the step of Fig. 7 is scattered+centralized Control (not the applying A algorithm) for representing RTS.It is group's host to share disk 11, It is connected with control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine while information can be exchanged.
(1) run schedule when the control panel of each machine is made the interim distribution of itself number machine
If produce distribution request, control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine is made receive distribution request in the case of Run schedule.In addition, receive the run schedule before distribution request, can be in advance in control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine In be ready to.
(2) the whole allocation models of amount evaluation of itself number machine are pressed in the control panel of each machine
Control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine is made expression and the calling of distribution request and imagination is called interim distribution still The interim allocation model of whole of itself number machine, evaluation and the interim corresponding traffic control of allocation model are not allocated temporarily to Table.
The idea of the interim allocation model contemplated in control panel (only itself number machine) is shown in Fig. 8.If imagination is called X parts are set to, then interim allocation model presses each's machine respectively there are 2(x+1)It is a.
Without considering the run schedule in the stage of imagination calling, completion is made in above-mentioned steps (1), so making herein Run schedule in the case of being distributed into additional imagination calling and temporarily, and evaluated.As only with itself number machine For the example of the interim allocation model of object, there are 8 as shown in Figure 9 in the case of being 2 in imagination calling.The pattern quantity The number of units of carriage is not depended on.
Control panel 12a, 12b ... of each machine will utilize the above method obtained and be commented with the corresponding distribution of all mode Value is sent to shared disk 11.
(3) evaluation result of each machine is synthesized in shared disk, and evaluates all interim allocation models
Allocation evaluation value of the disk 11 using control panel 12a, 12b ... the receiving from each machine is shared, evaluation is whole as system The interim allocation model of body.
The idea of the interim allocation model contemplated in shared disk (whole machine object) is shown in Figure 10.This is distributed temporarily Pattern is the pattern for representing to distribute to which calling which carriage, and there are c as a whole(x+1)It is a.
It it is 2 in imagination calling for example, in the cluster management system with 3 carriages (A machines, B machines, C machines) In the case of, share the interim allocation model as shown in figure 11 for evaluating 27 in disk 11.At this time, each machine can be utilized by sharing disk 11 Control panel 12a, 12b ... in the evaluation result obtained, readily calculate the evaluation of estimate of each interim allocation model.
That is, in Figure 11 " in the case of synthesis model 8 ", with reference to the independent pattern of Fig. 9.Moreover, by being combined to A machines Pattern 5, to B machines integrated mode 2 and to C machines integrated mode 3, calculate and comment while the run schedule of each machine can not be made Value.It is, the evaluation to all interim allocation models can be implemented with less calculation amount.
(4) final distribution carriage is determined in shared disk
Disk 11 is shared to combine the evaluation of estimate of above-mentioned all interim allocation model and utilize the evaluation of estimate obtained by Expert Rules, Determine the carriage of the calling (new ladder riding hall calling) of final distribution distribution request.
There is following such the strengths and weaknesses in the scattered+centralized Control.
(advantage)
■ can evaluate more interim allocation models (evaluable all mode) compared with the decentralised control of above-mentioned (b).
In the control panel of ■ each machines, the operation prediction of itself number machine is only carried out, so the consumption of storage region is less.
(shortcoming)
■ handles whole imagination callings, thus calculation amount relative to the number of packages of imagination calling by exponential function and Increase.Required number is predicted in operation, is 16 times when imagination calling is 3, is 32 times when imagination calling is 4.If Consider the computing capability of control panel, then it is it is generally acknowledged that difficult using the evaluation comparison of more than 5 imagination callings.
The synthesis that ■ needs to add interim allocation model to shared disk is handled.
■ when shared disk is shut down, in the control panel of each machine one need to undertake decentralized processing with focus on this two Side, the response for distributing output decline.
(d)+centralized Control (applying A algorithm) is disperseed
As described above, the method that combination combines decentralized processing with centralized processing, it is handled efficient, storage region Consumption is also few, and advantage is very big.But in the method for above-mentioned (c), all interim allocation models are evaluated with shared disk, so meter This two side accordingly changes greatly calculation amount with the number of units imagination calling number of packages of carriage.
For example, in 12 cluster management systems, it is necessary to obtain distribution to 20736 in the case of being 3 in imagination calling Evaluation of estimate.It is highly difficult to handle this number of packages in a short time.Therefore, A algorithm is used in the evaluation processing for sharing disk side.
First, the example of all interim allocation model with reference to shown in Figure 11, again to the control of shared disk 11 and each machine The task sharing of disk 12a, 12b ... processed illustrate.
Share disk 11 to evaluate whole synthesis models and select to evaluate most excellent synthesis model, determine actual distribution calling Carriage (distribution carriage).Herein, so-called " synthesis model " means that new calling (calling that distribution requires) such as distributes to No. A Machine, imagination calling 1 distribute to B machines like that, represent the mould which carriage to distribute the calling of the object of distribution to Formula.
A machines are being distributed into new calling, imagination calling 1 is distributed to B machines, C machines are distributed into imagination calling 2 In the case of, it is the synthesis model 6 shown in Figure 11.For the synthesis model 6, if separately considering by each machine, then it represents that it is following that The state of sample.
The new calling of ■ A machines distribution, but imagination calling 12 is not distributed.
■ B machines distribution imagination calling 1, but new calling and imagination calling 2 are not distributed.
■ C machines distribution imagination calling 2, but new calling and imagination calling 1 are not distributed.
If state set is used for Fig. 9, A machines are independent pattern 5, and B machines are independent pattern 3, and C machines are independent mould Formula 2.Herein, it is not interim that so-called " independent pattern " means to be conceived to 1 carriage, the interim distribution of such as new calling, imagination calling 1 Distribution like that, represent each calling to be distributed or is not assigned to the pattern of itself number machine.
That is, the evaluation of estimate of synthesis model 6, value, right that can be as obtained by combining for A machines by the calculating of independent pattern 5 Calculated in B machines by the value obtained by the calculating of independent pattern 3, for C machines by the value of independent pattern 2 calculating gained.In this way, close The independent pattern of each machine can be combined to evaluate by becoming the mode.
Next, illustrated for the method evaluated in shared disk 11 using A algorithm.
If as described above, using A algorithm, promising pattern is tapered to using as the interim allocation model of evaluation object And evaluated, institute is so as to cutting down calculation amount, can determining distribution carriage in a short time.
For example, in the cluster management system with 12 carriages, in the case where imagination calling is 3, Figure 11's is interim Allocation model (synthesis model) is 20736 as described below.
The carriage that ■ distribution newly calls is 12, so for 12
The carriage of ■ distribution imaginations calling 1 is also 12, so for 12
The carriage of ■ distribution imaginations calling 2 is also 12, so for 12
The carriage of ■ distribution imaginations calling 3 is also 12, so for 12
4 above-mentioned " 12 " all independent, so being as a whole 12 × 12 × 12 × 12=20736.
In above-mentioned idea, it is contemplated that such as " new calling selection A machines, 1 selection B machines of imagination calling, 2 choosing of imagination calling Select C machines, 3 selection D machines of imagination calling " like that, in the case of its carriage of whole calling selection distribution.
If using A algorithm, a part of evaluation is only carried out, so even if not evaluated all interim allocation models Result can be deduced.
That is, it is not from the conjunction for being initially ready for determining assigning them to which carriage for whole callings in A algorithm Become the mode, initially since the state that new calling imagination calling does not distribute temporarily.Moreover, with 11 as needed of one side Ground adds calling and is allocated while the mode reappraised is handled.Therefore, the synthesis model and A being illustrated in Figure 11 The pattern to be considered in algorithm differs.The synthesis model to be considered in RTS (exploration node), for part calling some not Determine the carriage of distribution.
Herein, it is described in detail with reference to Figure 12 to Figure 14.
Figure 12 to Figure 14 is the figure for representing to share the processing step of the A algorithm of disk side.Represent with 3 carriages (No. A Machine, B machines, C machines) cluster management system in, imagination calling is set to example in the case of 2.
(Na) (Nb) in figure ... (Nm) represents the state of the node in each stage.
First, the run schedule of the whole machine for the state do not distributed as new calling and imagination calling, prepares section Point (Na).
Next, with which branch machine new calling is allocated temporarily to correspondingly, ready node (Nb) (Nc) (Nd).It is right In the evaluation of estimate of the run schedule of each machine, calculated and completed by the method for Fig. 9.
Herein, illustrated by taking node (Nb) as an example.
■ contemplates the state for being assigned with to A machines and newly calling temporarily.At this time, A machines are changed into the fortune different from node (Na) Row dispatch list.B machines, the run schedule of C machines are identical with node (Na).
In A algorithm, can also the result calculated by " the independent pattern " of each machine be used to be evaluated.Because completely not The pattern that the pattern, and/or an only interim distribution part of the interim new calling of distribution and/or imaginary calling call also is contained in individually Pattern.
In the evaluation of A machines, the evaluation of estimate obtained from the independent pattern 5 of A machines is used.
In the evaluation of B machines, the evaluation of estimate obtained from the independent pattern 1 of B machines is used.
In the evaluation of C machines, the evaluation of estimate obtained from the independent pattern 1 of C machines is used.
(Nb) evaluation of estimate of node entirety becomes above-mentioned 3 evaluations of estimate and upper plus " average compensation value " × 2 The value of product gained.The reason for plus 2 times of mean compensation algorithm is that the situations that 2 imagination callings are distributed together with are compared, node (Nb) In the state of the calling that is assigned it is 2 few.It is it is, (average to mend by the evaluation of estimate for supplementing 2 average 1 call volumes Repay value) so as to supplement the evaluations of estimate of 2 amounts of deficiency.By the way that average compensation value is added in evaluation of estimate in advance, so as to then can Compared with enough evaluations of estimate with imagination to be called to the node for distributing to any's machine.
In average compensation value, the expected value for the incrementss that caused evaluation of estimate is allocated by additional 1 calling is used (average non-response time square etc.).
If " evaluation of estimate " mentioned here be described in more detail,
So-called " evaluation of estimate of the independent pattern 5 of A machines ", is to distribute to A machines and the imaginary vacation of calling 1 for new calling Think calling 2 be not assigned to A machines in the case of the single run schedule of A machines evaluation of estimate.The evaluation of estimate be for Having distributed to upper newly called plus the response of A machines of the sum of square value of predicted value of " non-response time " of the calling of A machines is The obtained value of predicted value of non-response time only.In addition, the evaluation of estimate is used as " independent pattern by the control panel 12a of A machines 5 " calculate completion.
So-called " evaluation of estimate of the independent pattern 1 of B machines " is all to be not assigned to No. B for new calling imagination calling 1,2 The evaluation of estimate of the run schedule of B machines in the case of machine.The evaluation of estimate is set to for the calling that is assigned to B machines The sum of the square value of predicted value of " non-response time ".
So-called " evaluation of estimate of the independent pattern 1 of C machines ", is all to be not assigned to No. C for new calling imagination calling 1,2 The evaluation of estimate of the run schedule of C machines in the case of machine.The evaluation of estimate is set to for the calling that is assigned to C machines The sum of the square value of predicted value of " non-response time ".
As described above, the evaluation of estimate of the node entirety of (Nb) is to distribute to not ringing for whole callings of A, B, C machine The upper obtained value of product plus average compensation value × 2 of the sum of square value between seasonable.Therefore, the evaluation of estimate of node entirety, energy Enough combinations are obtained by the evaluation of estimate that the independent pattern of Fig. 9 is obtained and average compensation value.
Other nodes also can be calculated similarly.The main points of calculating are as described below.
■ presses each node, investigates which calling which carriage distributed to.
■ which calling is distributed to the imagination (Figure 11) of which point carriage, be replaced as by each's machine by which The interim distribution of calling is not still allocated temporarily to the imagination (Figure 10) of itself number machine.
The evaluation of estimate and average compensation value that ■ combinations are obtained by the independent pattern of Fig. 9, obtain the evaluation of estimate of node entirety.
If the evaluation for node (Na) (Nb) (Nc) (Nd) terminates, " the choosing of the characteristic processing as A algorithm is carried out Select the processing for the node being next unfolded ".Exactly select the evaluation of estimate among the node evaluated before this it is optimal (value is minimum ) node, to the node again, it is contemplated that further called 1 and be allocated temporarily to the situation of a certain carriage and be made ensuing Node.
But, expansion source will not be become again by having completed the node of expansion.It is for example, complete in node (Na) (Nb) (Nc) (Nd) Into during evaluation, node (Na) will not become expansion source again.
Among node (Nb) (Nc) (Nd), if for example, the evaluation of estimate of node (Nb) is optimal, go to node (Ne) (Nf) evaluation of (Ng).Node (Ne) (Nf) (Ng) represents the 1st imagination calling being allocated temporarily to the situations of A machines respectively, The situation of B machines is allocated temporarily to, is allocated temporarily to the situation of C machines.In addition, node (Ne) (Nf) (Ng) all maintains as former state " new calling is allocated temporarily to A machines " of node (Nb) this imagination.
If the evaluation for node (Ne) (Nf) (Ng) terminates, next, finding node (Nc) (Nd) (Ne) (Nf) (Ng) the optimal node of evaluation of estimate among, is set to expansion source node.In this case, node (Nc) (Nd) does not distribute the " the 1st A imagination calling ", node (Ne) (Nf) (Ng) are assigned " the 1st imagination calling ", and the number of the calling of evaluation is different.But It is, in the evaluation of estimate of calculate node, correspondingly to adjust what average compensation value was calculated with the number of unrated calling Number, institute is so as to be mutually compared.
Herein, if for example, node (Nd) is optimal, next by node (Nh) (Ni) (Nj) expansion.If in addition, node (Nf) it is optimal, then next the node of (Nk) (Nl) (Nm) is unfolded.
Limitation is equipped with to the number of node expansion.Such as if with 4 times for condition, evaluation is as follows:
1st time:The evaluation of node (Nb) (Nc) (Nd)
2nd time:The evaluation of node (Ne) (Nf) (Ng)
3rd time:The evaluation of node (Nh) (Ni) (Nj)
The 4th:The evaluation of node (Nk) (Nl) (Nm)
If the expansion of 4 minor nodes terminates, finally, the node with optimal evaluation of estimate is found.As a result, for example, node (Nm) it is optimal.At node (Nm), new calling is assigned to A machines, so in this allocation processing, A machines are confirmed as point With carriage.
In this way, in scattered+central controlled structure, A algorithm is carried out by using group's host, and with following such excellent Point.
(advantage)
Do not wasted in the processing of evaluation of estimate of independent pattern is obtained.It is, produced in node (Nf) (Nk) (Nm) The predictions of B machines all use independent pattern 3.At node (Ni), the prediction of B machines also uses independent pattern 3.
In the decentralised control being illustrated in Figure 5, node (Nf) (Nk) (Nm) is evaluated in the control panel 12a of A machines, Node (Ni) is evaluated in the control panel 12b of C machines.Therefore, it is necessary to the control panel in the control panel 12a of A machines and C machines This two side of 12c carries out the prediction of the independent pattern 3 of B machines, wastes very much.
In contrast, in the case where using scattered+centralized Control (applying A algorithm), the independent pattern 3 of B machines is commented Valency carries out in the control panel 12b of B machines in the stage (stage of Fig. 9) of the complete individually pattern of evaluation in advance.Therefore, A calculations are carried out In the shared disk 11 of method, the evaluation of estimate for calculating the independent pattern completed only is taken out, it is not necessary to repeated as the decentralised control of Fig. 5 Evaluated.
In addition, in the above example, in order to make explanation simple, 3 carriages are set to, the expansion of 4 minor nodes is illustrated, But it is unfolded more often, can further save the repetition evaluation between each machine in the number of units and/or node of carriage Waste significantly to cut down calculation amount.
