Abstract Hybrid Routing Models Utilizing Trucks Or ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: HYBRID ROUTING MODELS UTILIZING TRUCKS OR SHIPS TO LAUNCH DRONES Stefan Poikonen Doctor of Philosophy, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Bruce Golden R.H. Smith School of Business Technological advances for unmanned aerial vehicles, commonly referred to as drones, have opened the door to a number of new and interesting applications in areas including military, healthcare, communications, cinematography, emergency response, and logistics. However, limitations due to battery capacity, maximum take-off weight, finite range of wireless communications, and legal regulations have restricted the effective operational range of drones in many practical applications. Several hybrid operational models involving one or more drones launching from a larger vehicle, which may be a ship, truck, or airplane, have emerged to help mitigate these range limitations. In particular, the drones utilize the larger vehicle as both a mobile depot and a recharging or refueling platform. In this dissertation, we describe routing models that leverage the tandem of one or more drones with a larger vehicle. In these models, there is generally a set of targets that should be visited in an efficient (usually time-minimizing) manner. By using multiple vehicles, these targets may be visited in parallel thereby reducing the total time to visit all targets. The vehicle routing problem with drones (VRPD) and traveling salesman prob- lem with a drone (TSP-D) consider hybrid truck-and-drone models of delivery, where the goal is to minimize the time required to deliver a set of packages to their re- spective customers and return the truck(s) and drone(s) to the origin depot. In both problems, the drone can carry one homogeneous package at a time. Theoreti- cal analysis, exact solution methods, heuristic solution methods, and computational results are presented. In the mothership and drone routing problem (MDRP), we consider the case where the larger launch vehicle is free to move in Euclidean space (the open seas) and launch a drone to visit one target location at a time, before returning to the ship to pick up new cargo or refuel. The mothership and high capacity drone routing problem (MDRP-HC) is a generalization of the mothership and drone routing problem, which allows the drone to visit multiple targets con- secutively before returning to the ship. MDRP and MDRP-HC contain elements of both combinatorial optimization and continuous optimization. In the multi-visit drone routing problem (MVDRP), a drone can visit multiple targets consecutively before returning to the truck, subject to energy constraints that take into account the weight of packages carried by the drone.

His guid- ance has spanned from granular details of papers to strategic and life advice. He helped me to see the light at the end of the long graduate school tunnel when I was still finding myself as a student. It seems just yesterday I was in BMGT831. I hope for many more papers together and four mile walks. I also owe special thanks to Professor Edward Wasil who has worked closely with me on multiple projects. His careful eye and advice have been invaluable, and I deeply appreciate all he has done along the way. I hope to continue collaborating over the coming years. To Rui Zhang, thank you for your sound advice, especially during the job application process. You gave me a more concrete sense of what to expect in the interviewing process, which was extremely helpful. We have worked together on one project so far, but I hope our future proximity in Colorado will lead to others. To Xingyin Wang, I appreciate the time we had to work on a couple projects together and the chances we have had to meet at conferences. Hopefully we can have a chance to meet and collaborate in the future. To other friends in the Saturday research group who have been supportive in a number of ways, thank you. I especially wish to mention Debdatta Sinha Roy, who has been a supportive friend and classmate. To all of you who have helped make this possible through your love, support, and encouragement, thank you. I wish to especially mention my family who have iii consistently supported me in a variety of ways.

  • Kyoobur9000 Interview -- How Did You Come to Logo Editing? I Joined Youtube Back in 2010 and I Was Always Fasc
    Kyoobur9000 interview -- How did you come to logo editing? I joined YouTube back in 2010 and I was always fascinated by these videos where people would take their video programs and apply it, plug-in after plug-in after plug-in basically to make it unrecognizable. And that’s initially what I planned on having my channel be but I actually discovered that there were some pretty cool things I could do without, you know, tearing the video apart. So, I just kinda started by trying certain plug-ins or combinations of plug-ins and figured, hey this might sound cool or this might look cool and you know, it just worked out. What was going on at the time when you joined YouTube. You were seeing other production company idents or flips of other sources? What were you seeing and what were your inspirations?.. searching around on YouTube? Yes, there were other YouTube channels that did some work, you know there’s an audio effect called G-Major and um, people would apply that to idents and logos. So that’s what kinda got me attracted to logo editing. And the plug-ins really came from me playing with the video programs I had at my disposal. Even though it wasn’t my initial plan it was mainly that exposure to logos from G-Major that made it the point of my channel. Because you were quite young when you started, right? I was, actually I was just about to start high-school. So how did you come to picking your sources?.

    Daniel Bunting Street Performers on the Information Superhighway: A Secondary Liability Theory for Mediashare on Twitch I. INTRODUCTION Perhaps no industry has had more trouble coping with emerging technologies than the music industry. In a field once dominated by sales of records and CDs, the ease with which the Internet allows potential customers to access files free of cost has fundamentally altered the relationship between musicians and consumers. In some cases, musicians can ally themselves with emergent technology and seek some share of the benefits. The industry has done a marvelous job doing this with YouTube, for example. 1 In other cases, such as Napster, the music industry has had to seek legal remedies to protect its interests. 2 Every time a new technology potentially infringes the rights of copyright holders, those copyright holders have a spectrum of legal and business options to deal with the threat; the above examples represent the poles of this spectrum. The decision on how to proceed with any given technology is driven by a variety of legal and business considerations including what the legal options actually are, how much economic benefit there is to any one option, and whether that solution is going to be a permanent fix to a problem to name only a few. This paper deals with this question of copyright holders’ options in the context of StreamLabs’ mediashare program for use on the multimedia platform Twitch. The first part of this analysis breaks down the parties involved and explain the role they play in the analysis. The second part of this analysis outlines the legal theories which form the 1 Robert Elder, YouTube Distributed Over $1 Billion in Ad Revenue to the Music Industry This Year, Business Insider, http://www.businessinsider.com/youtube-pays-out-1-billion-to-music-industry-2016-12.

    TIMOTHY S. CHUNG, FAIR USE QUOTATION LICENSES: A PRIVATE SECTOR SOLUTION, 44 COLUM. J.L. & ARTS 69 (2020) Fair Use Quotation Licenses: A Private Sector Solution To DMCA Takedown Abuse on YouTube Timothy S. Chung* INTRODUCTION In 2019, YouTube logged two billion users a month and received over 500 hours of content uploads every minute.1 With over 4.5 billion people using the internet every day, it may come as no surprise that internet users congregate on the world’s largest video-hosting platform to view, create, and share videos based on their common interests.2 The owners and creators of such content range from widely recognized figures, like musician Justin Bieber—whose channel has over 57 million subscribers—to more idiosyncratic individuals, like Steve1989MREInfo—who eats and reviews military rations for his fiercely loyal viewers.3 The vast and varied selection of content makes YouTube a particularly attractive hub of creativity and entertainment. Yet the same abundance of creative work also gives rise to countless opportunities for copyright infringement—an issue that YouTube has long grappled with.4 Although the rights given to copyright owners by the U.S. copyright statute can be exercised or transferred independently of each other, it is often the case that a * J.D.

  • The “Golden Age” of Youtube Has Passed
    The “Golden Age” of YouTube has passed YouTube, one of the most downloaded apps in the world, is losing its touch. Many would argue that the “Golden Age” of Youtube has passed and that the app is spiraling downward. In recent reviews, there are several complaints regarding unskippable ads, unnecessary censorship, and views getting deleted. Despite YouTube’s endless amount of updates and changes to its algorithm, many users are still left unsatisfied with its current version. An infamous new trend seemed to evolve with the shift of the platform’s original purpose: cycles of YouTubers rise to fame, peak at a certain point, and then decide to take a break from the app. The safe haven for uncontained creativity has transformed into a large money-making corporation. graphic by Emily Qian Several of YouTube’s original content creators have opened up about their discontent with the website, among whom is Ryan Higa. Kicking off his Youtube journey with lip-sync videos and later writing his own songs and comedy sketches, Higa’s channel, NigaHiga, became the most subscribed channel in 2009 and remained so for 677 days. But as Youtube progressed towards its monetization policy, Higa’s content shifted in order for his channel to stay afloat. In his video “Why I haven’t been posting recently…,” Higa describes how in the beginning of his career his sole focus when making videos was to maximize quality. “I started in a time where you could not make money off of YouTube and the videos, so the fun part was always trying to get better than the last video and just keep improving because the better your content was the more YouTube would promote it,” Higa said.

  • How to Realign Our Rhetorical Judgments for the Post-Postmodern, Digital Media Age
    Fear and Loathing in the New Media Era: How to Realign Our Rhetorical Judgments for the Post-Postmodern, Digital Media Age DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Aaron McKain Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: James Phelan, Advisor Cynthia Selfe Wendy Hesford Copyright by Aaron McKain 2012 Abstract This dissertation begins with a question that sits – obstinately – at the crossroads of 21st century American politics and 21st century scholarship in rhetoric and composition: How do we make judgments about rhetoric when new media (social-networking, web 2.0, ease of audio/visual production) have rendered our long-standing public norms of ethos untenable? This is the dilemma lurking behind the daily parade of new media acts that we, as citizens, are expected to judge: From co-workers caught mid-kegstand on Facebook to politicians trapped in the YouTube minefield of decontextualized and mashed-up gaffes. But ethos points to a larger concern as well: At the precise moment where technology has given us, as a citizens, unparalleled power to act as rhetorical critics -- when anyone with a laptop and dial-up connection can effortlessly remediate, remix, and repurpose rhetorical acts from one context to another – we are uncertain about what the new rules of rhetoric are? How do we rethink ethos – in terms of character -- for a heavily surveilled, socially-networked age, where the distinctions between public and private are nebulous and all of our previous public performances are always only a Google search away? Concerned that our current, mass media age, standards for judging ethos as character (e.g., as authenticity, as the search for the “real” person) are both deadlocking our politics and providing no vocabulary of resistance to the new media era’s twin industries of information- gathering and surveillance, this dissertation proceeds in three stages in order to present a solution.
