Robust Composition of Drone Delivery Services under Uncertainty

Abstract: We propose a novel robust composition framework for drone delivery services considering changes in the wind patterns in urban areas. The proposed framework incorporates the dynamic arrival of drone services at the recharging stations. We propose a Probabilistic Forward Search (PFS) algorithm to select and compose the best drone delivery services under uncertainty. A set of experiments with a real drone dataset is conducted to illustrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach.
