An improved ant colony optimization algorithm for nonlinear resource-leveling problems
The notion of using a meta-heuristic approach to solve nonlinear resource-leveling problems has been intensively studied in recent years. Premature convergence and poor exploitation are the main obstacles for the heuristic algorithms. Analyzing the characteristics of the project topology network, this paper introduces a directional ant colony optimization (DACO) algorithm for solving nonlinear ...
متن کاملResource leveling scheduling by an ant colony-based model
In project scheduling, many problems can arise when resource fluctuations are beyond acceptable limits. To overcome this, mathematical techniques have been developed for leveling resources. However, these produce a hard and inflexible approach in scheduling projects. The authors propose a simple resource leveling approach that can be used in scheduling projects with multi-mode execution activit...
متن کاملAn Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm for Network Vulnerability Analysis
Intruders often combine exploits against multiple vulnerabilities in order to break into the system. Each attack scenario is a sequence of exploits launched by an intruder that leads to an undesirable state such as access to a database, service disruption, etc. The collection of possible attack scenarios in a computer network can be represented by a directed graph, called network attack gra...
متن کاملOptimal Distributed Generation (DG) Allocation in Distribution Networks using an Improved Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) Algorithm
Abstract: The development of distributed generation (DGs) units in recent years have created challenges in the operation of power grids, especially distribution networks. One of these issues is the optimal allocation (location and capacity) of these units in distribution networks. In this thesis, a method based on the improved ant colony optimization algorithm is presented to solve the problem ...
متن کاملAn Improved Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm for Solving TSP
The basic ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm takes on a longer computing time in the search process and is prone to fall into local optimal solutions, an improved ACO (CEULACO) algorithm is proposed in this paper. In the CEULAC algorithm, the direction guidance and real variable function are used to initialize pheromone concentration according to the path information of undirected graph. T...
