Optimal 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 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 کاملUsing Ant Colony Optimization for Infrastructure Maintenance Scheduling
For the optimal planning of maintenance schedules for infrastructural buildings (bridges, tunnels, etc) in urban road systems not only the budget has to be considered but also the impact on traffic to avoid unnecessary traffic jams. In a current research project we develop an optimization tool for this multiobjective problem based on ant colony optimization. In each iteration, the ants produce ...
متن کاملA mathematical model for designing optimal urban gas networks, an ant colony algorithm and a case study
Considering the high costs of the implementation and maintenance of gas distribution networks in urban areas, optimal design of such networks is vital. Today, urban gas networks are implemented within a tree structure. These networks receive gas from City Gate Stations (CGS) and deliver it to the consumers. This study presents a comprehensive model based on Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming (...
متن کاملAnt Colony Algorithm for Surgery Scheduling Problem
Considering the complete process of surgery including the preoperative and postoperative stages, multiple resource constraints involved and the integration of surgical upstream and downstream resources, surgery scheduling was described as an extended multi-resource constrained flexible job-shop scheduling problem and an optimization approach was proposed based on an improved ant colony algorith...
