Online Resource Allocation with Stochastic Resource Consumption

Jiashuo Jiang, Jiawei Zhang · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2020

We consider an online resource allocation problem where multiple resources, each with an individual initial capacity, are available to serve random requests arriving sequentially over multiple discrete time periods. At each time period, one request arrives and its associated reward and size are drawn independently from a known distribution that could be resource-dependent. Upon its arrival and revealing itself, an online decision has to be made on whether or not to accept the request. If accepted, another online decision should also be made to specify on assigning which resource to serve the request, then a certain amount of the resource equal to the size of the request will be consumed and a reward will be collected. The objective of the decision maker is to maximize the total collected reward subject to the capacity constraints. We develop near-optimal policies for our problem under two settings separately. When the reward distribution has a finite support, we assume that given each reward realization, the size distributions for different resources are perfectly positive correlated and we propose an adaptive threshold policy. We show that with certain regularity conditions on the size distribution, our policy enjoys an optimal $O(\log T)$ regret bound, where $T$ denotes the total time periods. When the support of the reward distribution is not necessarily finite, we develop another adaptive threshold policy with a $O(\log T)$ regret bound when both the reward and the size of each request are resource-independent and the size distribution satisfies the same conditions.

Collaborative Consumption: Towards a Resource-Saving Consumption Culture

Kristin Leismann, Martina Schmitt, Holger Rohn et al. · RePEc: Research Papers in Economics

Resource efficiency in production and technological innovations are inadequate for considerably reducing the current use of natural resources. Both social innovations and a complementary and equally valued strategy of sustainable consumption are required: goods must be used longer, and services that support collaborative consumption (CC) patterns must be extended. “Using rather than owning” strategies, such as product sharing, have the potential to conserve resources. Based on the results of different German studies, this article highlights the resource-saving potentials of CC patterns and recommendations proposed for policies and further research questions. The purpose of this paper is to show that a general resource-saving potential can be realized by “use rather than own” schemes, depending on the application field and the framework for implementation. CC is suitable for making a positive contribution to achieving the Factor 10 target by playing an important role in changing consumer patterns.

Natural Resource Consumption and Lockdown

Anupam Verma, Vandana Srivastava · International Research Journal on Advanced Science Hub · 2020

Resource consumption is about the consumption of non-renewable or renewable resources. Water, oil, natural gas, environmental degradation, deforestation, resource depletion, energy consumption etc. unsustainable consumption by steadily increasing population may lead to resource depletion. Natural resource management is the management of natural resources like water, land soil, plants and animals. With a particular focus on how management focus on living styles for present and future generations. India is fast moving towards crisis of ground water(GW) overdose. National per capita annual availability of water has reduced 15% from 2001 to 2011. A common man has important role in natural resource management. Even being at home he might be consuming or conservating natural resources in terms of fuel for vehicle, gas for kitchen, water for bath, electricity for light and gadgets. Two things need to be focused one the environment in which we live and other our own body.We need to know how much we consume our natural resources daily so we consume less and conserve more, we can leave behind a healthy future for generations to come. We need to know what natural resources are and out of them what actually we daily consuming even being at home. Lockdown has increased or decreased consumption of natural resources, how much our life style depleting these natural resources and how to conserve it for future generations, is central theme of this paper. Awareness, conservation of natural resources and its consumption in home, is analyzed in the paper.

Systems with integral resource consumption

Wolfgang Halter, Jan Maximilian Montenbruck, Frank Allgöwer · 2017

Systems in which a control action can only be taken when a certain resource η is available can be found in various applications, i.e. in biological, engineering and economic sciences. In many of these applications, it is also the case that a smaller value of available resources will grant us a smaller influence on the system through the control action, i.e., the control input u will scale with the magnitude of η, thus yielding bi-linear expressions of the form ηu. Simultaneously, the resource is consumed depending on the physical type of resource and the applied input trajectories in an integral fashion. We study such systems with underlying linear dynamics in terms of their reachable set and demonstrate the connection between the shape of the reachable set and the physical type of resource, deriving explicit upper and lower approximations of the reachable set for systems with stable origin. A biological example demonstrates how these ideas can be used to extract essential mechanisms from a complex system in order to generate simple hypotheses.
