A Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm with feasibility-based rules (FRPSO) is proposed in this paper to solve mixed-variable optimization problems. An approach to handle various ...
Scheduling is a key problem in distributed heterogeneous computing systems in order to benefit from the large computing capacity of such systems and is an NP-complete problem. In ...
This paper present a class of investment problem, in which many items could be chosen in a group decision environment. Usually there is a decision table from the board of director...
Abstract--The generalized minimum vertex-biconnected network problem plays an important role in the design of survivable backbone networks that should be fault tolerant to single c...
This paper presents a novel optimization approach using Improved Harmony Search (IHS) algorithm to solve economic power dispatch problem. The proposed methodology easily takes care...
