To meet the efficiency and economy requirements of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) inspection for large watershed, long-distance and multi-measurement-point reservoirs, this paper focuses on the optimal allocation problem of heterogeneous UAV swarms for reservoir inspection with task decomposition. Firstly, the four decomposable dimensions of reservoir inspection tasks (spatial decomposition, time decomposition, measurement point decomposition, and data accuracy decomposition) are clarified, and the performance metrics and constraints of heterogeneous UAV swarms are defined. Secondly, inspection success models and inspection cost models are constructed to form a dual-objective optimization mod... More >

Large-scale computing systems, such as cloud data centers, grid infrastructures, and high-performance computing clusters, are the backbone of modern information technology ecosystems. These systems typically consist of numerous heterogeneous, multi-state computing nodes that exhibit varying performance levels due to component failures, degradation, or dynamic resource allocation. Performability analysis, which integrates both system reliability and performance evaluations to quantify the probability of the system operating at a specified performance level, is critical for ensuring the efficient, reliable, and cost-effective operation of these complex systems. This paper presents a comprehens... More >
