Fixed-Haven Reservation for Online Multi-Agent Pickup and Delivery in Dense Warehouses

Dense warehouses often contain single-lane aisles, dead ends, and tree-like guidepaths that leave little room for idle agents to wait without blocking others. Existing Multi-Agent Pickup and Delivery (MAPD) guarantees for completing all finitely released tasks typically rely on extra waiting endpoints that planned paths can avoid, or on biconnected topology; these assumptions may fail in such layouts. We study fixed-Haven reservation for online MAPD, where pickup-delivery tasks are released over time. Each agent owns a fixed Safe Haven (Haven for short), usually its start cell, that only the owner may occupy and that other agents treat as blocked. For finite task releases, we prove that this fixed-Haven contract completes all released tasks under Haven-Reachability and explicit planning/progress assumptions. We implement the contract in SHARP, a Safe-Haven Retreat Planner that keeps every busy or retreating agent on a collision-free reserved route ending at its Haven. We compare SHARP with representative TP and PIBT-family MAPD baselines: Token Passing (TP), Priority Inheritance with Backtracking (PIBT), and PIBT with Temporary Priority and Temporary Avoidance (PIBTTP-TA) for biconnected main areas with attached trees. In the robustness sweep, SHARP is the only method with 100% success on all tested configurations, at substantially higher centralized planning cost on tree-like layouts. A TP-style fixed-home-return counterfactual with full-route validation also recovers robustness on tested tree-like layouts, suggesting that fixed return is a central robustness mechanism there. A no-overwrite variant shows that disabling mid-retreat reassignment worsens service time (release-to-delivery latency) by 1.89 times and makespan by 1.53 times in the tested high-load tree condition.

Dynamic Haven Selection for Multi-Agent Pickup and Delivery in Constrained Warehouses

Space-efficient warehouse layouts often contain single-agent-width aisles and dead-end workstations where robots have few places to wait without blocking others. In Multi-Agent Pickup and Delivery (MAPD) on such constrained layouts, robots must accept online pickup-delivery tasks while preserving protected waiting locations called Havens. The Safe HAven Retreat Planner (SHARP) introduced a mechanism that extends each committed task path with a validated retreat to the agent's dedicated initial Haven, but fixed-Haven commitments can send agents toward distant Havens after deliveries. We present A-sharp (Adaptive SHARP), which changes an agent's retreat target at task assignment time. A naive switch can cause two agents to rely on the same waiting location or let another committed path pass through a location that is still occupied or reserved. A-sharp prevents these failures with an availability test for candidate Havens and a pending-release rule that keeps the previous Haven protected until the agent departs. Under explicit Haven-structure and Safe Interval Path Planning (SIPP) assumptions, we prove invariant preservation and finite-release completeness: every task in any finite release sequence is delivered in finite time. Across 72,000 runs on 14,400 paired map-agent-count-rate-seed cases over four maps, both SHARP and A-sharp complete their respective 14,400 runs. For makespan (final delivery time), a prespecified paired comparison with Holm correction over all 138 configurations with more Havens than agents finds A-sharp significantly better in 107 configurations and never significantly worse than SHARP; on the tested tree map, the median reduction is 16.7%.

ROIX-Comp: Optimizing X-ray Computed Tomography Imaging Strategy for Data Reduction and Reconstruction

In high-performance computing (HPC) environments, particularly in synchrotron radiation facilities, vast amounts of X-ray images are generated. Processing large-scale X-ray Computed Tomography (X-CT) datasets presents significant computational and storage challenges due to their high dimensionality and data volume. Traditional approaches often require extensive storage capacity and high transmission bandwidth, limiting real-time processing capabilities and workflow efficiency. To address these constraints, we introduce a region-of-interest (ROI)-driven extraction framework (ROIX-Comp) that intelligently compresses X-CT data by identifying and retaining only essential features. Our work reduces data volume while preserving critical information for downstream processing tasks. At pre-processing stage, we utilize error-bounded quantization to reduce the amount of data to be processed and therefore improve computational efficiencies. At the compression stage, our methodology combines object extraction with multiple state-of-the-art lossless and lossy compressors, resulting in significantly improved compression ratios. We evaluated this framework against seven X-CT datasets and observed a relative compression ratio improvement of 12.34x compared to the standard compression.

Steenrod-Cech homology-cohomology theories associated with bivariant functors

Let NG0 denote the category of all pointed numerically generated spaces and continuous maps preserving base-points. In [SYH], we described a passage from bivariant functors to generalized homology and cohomology theories. In this paper, we construct a bivariant functor such that the associated cohomology is the Cech cohomology and the homology is the Steenrod homology (at least for compact metric spaces).

Simulation Study of FPCCD Vertex Detector

We are developing the vertex detector with a fine pixel CCD (FPCCD) for the international linear collider (ILC), whose pixel size is $5 \times 5$ $μ$m$^{2}$. To evaluate the performance of the FPCCD vertex detector and optimize its design, development of the software dedicated for the FPCCD is necessary. We, therefore, started to develop the software for FPCCD. In this article, the status of the study is reported.

Measurement of Higgs Branching Ratio at ILC

Measurement of Higgs branching ratio is necessary to investigate Higgs coupling to particle masses. Especially, it is the most important program to measure the branching ratio of H->bb and H->cc at the international linear collider (ILC). We have studied the measurement accuracy of Higgs branching ratio at ILC with Sqrt(s) = 250 GeV by using ZH->vvH events. We obtained the Higgs branching ratio with 1.1% and 13.7% accuracy for H->bb and H->cc, respectively.
