Speech Title: Learning-based Intelligent Control and Management of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles

Abstract: The connected and autonomous vehicle (CAV) technology can prevent crashes, reducing property damage and injury, congestion and emissions. Among all CAV studies, the controller design and management of CAV has attracted large attention among researchers in the field of control, optimization and communication. In this talk, I will introduce several intelligent cruise control design strategies under the framework of reinforcement learning. Professional traffic simulation results show that these strategies can increase the traffic throughput and reduce the fuel usage.




Assoc. Prof. Tang Jinhuan

Shenyang Aerospace University, China

Research Area: operation of new energy vehicles and optimization of low-carbon supply chains. 

Introduction: Dr. Tang Jinhuan, born in March 1985, is an associate professor, vice dean, and master's supervisor at the School of Economics and Management, Shenyang Aerospace University. She graduated from Northeastern University with a Ph.D. in Management Science and Engineering. She is selected as a candidate of the "Hundred, Thousand, and Ten Thousand Talents Project" in Liaoning Province. Her research focuses on the operation of new energy vehicles and optimization of low-carbon supply chains. Dr. Tang has led nearly 20 projects at the provincial and ministerial levels and has been involved in 2 national natural science foundation projects and 1 national social science foundation project. She has published nearly 30 academic papers, including 14 in CSSCI journals like "Chinese Journal of Management" and "Journal of Management Science and Engineering", and over 10 in SCI/SSCI journals such as "Energy" and "Journal of Systems Science and Systems Engineering". Additionally, she has authored 2 academic monographs, is a member of the China Society of Logistics, and serves as a reviewer for journals like Energy, Energy Policy, and Industrial Engineering and Management. Dr. Tang has been awarded the second prize for scientific achievements in Natural Science in Shenyang City.

Speech Title: How to promote the value co-creation of stakeholders in the intelligent connected vehicle innovation ecosystem?

Abstract: As information and communication technology continues to advance, the concept of the "software defined vehicle" is emerging as a prevailing trend. Intelligent connected vehicles (ICVs) are steering the future of the automotive industry. However, the lack of collaborative innovation, the fragmentation of the industrial chain, and the absence of sustained and consistent partnerships present significant challenges to value co-creation in the ICV sector. To address these challenges, this study develops a value co-creation evolutionary game model for the ICV industry's innovation ecosystem, considering automotive enterprises, intelligent automotive solution providers, and the government as the key players. By applying prospect theory, the model optimizes the evolutionary game among these stakeholders, aiming to enhance value co-creation by analyzing the co-evolution mechanisms of their strategies. The findings reveal that: (1) The ideal evolutionary stable strategy involves positive cross-border cooperation between automotive enterprises and intelligent automotive solution providers, with the government gradually phasing out subsidies; (2) Government subsidies should be appropriately managed, as excessive subsidies can diminish the marginal incentive effect; (3) Higher levels of trust and resource complementarity between automotive enterprises and intelligent automotive solution providers can boost cross-border integration willingness, while penalties and opportunity losses can effectively deter negative integration behaviors; (4) Higher risk attitude and risk aversion coefficients among automotive enterprises and intelligent automotive solution providers contribute positively to the value co-creation process.

Speech Title: Managing secondary risks with optimal risk response strategy and risk-related resource scheduling

Abstract:Managing secondary risks, which emerge from the implementation of risk response plans, is critical to achieving project objectives. Despite their significance, research on effectively scheduling resources to address these risks remains limited. This presentation introduces a pioneering mixed-integer optimization model alongside a tailored meta-heuristic solution algorithm, specifically designed to determine optimal strategies for both primary and secondary risk responses. To validate our model, we developed a synthetic data generation framework capable of producing relevant scenarios based on specific metrics. By applying the model and algorithm to a comprehensive numerical experiment constructed using the synthetic data generation framework, we derive key managerial insights into secondary risks and their potential impact on project objectives. The findings of this study provide project managers withvaluable strategies for more effectively managing both primary and secondary risks, ultimately enhancing project success.
