Title: Job Selection in a Network of Autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for Delivery of Goods
Description:

Based on the analysis of job selection policies, we provide decision-making support for planning and operating a networked UAV-based supply service. Similar to a dynamic vehicle routing problem, jobs arrive over time for certain locations according to a space-time stochastic process, and are addressed in real time. The delivery system’s performance is measured by customer waiting time. Key novelties: (i) analysis of interdependence between job selection policies and system infrastructure, both in terms of system cost and stability, and (ii) providing evidence that the timing of decision-making affects performance whereas the `direction' of the effect is policy-dependent.
