Reinforcement Learning for EVRP with V2GPrasant Misra
This document proposes using reinforcement learning to optimize routing for electric vehicle fleets performing last-mile deliveries. The approach models the electric vehicle routing problem as a Markov decision process to learn optimal routing policies. The model considers constraints like vehicle capacity, customer time windows, and optional energy delivery to the grid. The reinforcement learning algorithm trains a neural network to select the best vehicle-to-node assignments that minimize trip costs while satisfying constraints. An example illustrates how the algorithm may route two vehicles over time to service customers and an optional energy delivery.

An improved design of CMOS dynamic latch comparator with dual input dual output with a simple
design of three stages is represented. The basic disadvantages of latch type comparators are overcome by
producing an edge triggered comparison. The circuit is designed for a resolution of 300nV and the power
consumption is reduced to 450uW. It is designed for 1.8V DC supply voltage and 1 MHz clock frequency for
PVT variations. The simulation of the comparator is done in Cadence® Virtuoso Analog Design Environment
using 180nm technology. The error quotient is reduced less than 5% by adding a buffer stage. The delay is
brought down to 5nS. The active area appreciably is reduced. Layout of the proposed comparator has been

This tutorial teaches how to model and simulate Zener diodes in PSPICE. It shows building a circuit with two Zener diodes and a sinusoidal voltage source. When first simulated, the diodes do not break down as expected. To fix this, the user edits the diode model to add parameters describing the diodes' breakdown voltage and current. Adding these parameters of "BV=5V IBV=2mA" allows the diodes to break down at 5V in the simulation. The tutorial demonstrates that changing a model affects all diodes using that model, and separate models are needed to represent diodes with different properties.
