Scatter search based interactive multi-criteria optimization of fuzzy objectives for coal production planning

چکیده

We present an interactive multi-criteria procedure that uses user defined tradeoff-cutting planes to identify promising feasible solution search space. New solutions in the promising feasible solution search space are constructed using combination of scatter and random search. The procedure of identifying tradeoff-cutting planes and scatter search continues for either a predetermined fixed number of iterations or until no solutions in the promising feasible solution search space are found. We formulate a coal production planning problem with fuzzy profit and fuzzy coal quality decision-maker utilities, and apply our procedure for additive and multiplicative decision-maker utilities. & 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

The Integrated Supply Chain of After-sales Services Model: A Multi-objective Scatter Search Optimization Approach

Abstract: In recent decades, high profits of extended warranty have caused that third-party firms consider it as a lucrative after-sales service. However, customers division in terms of risk aversion and effect of offering extended warranty on manufacturers’ basic warranty should be investigated through adjusting such services. Since risk-averse customers welcome extended warranty, while the cu...

A Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for a Possibilistic Open Shop Problem to Minimize Weighted Mean Tardiness and Weighted Mean Completion Times

We consider an open shop scheduling problem. At first, a bi-objective possibilistic mixed-integer programming formulation is developed. The inherent uncertainty in processing times and due dates as fuzzy parameters, machine-dependent setup times and removal times are the special features of this model. The considered bi-objectives are to minimize the weighted mean tardiness and weighted mean co...

Probabilistic Power Distribution Planning Using Multi-Objective Harmony Search Algorithm

In this paper, power distribution planning (PDP) considering distributed generators (DGs) is investigated as a dynamic multi-objective optimization problem. Moreover, Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is applied to handle the uncertainty in electricity price and load demand. In the proposed model, investment and operation costs, losses and purchased power from the main grid are incorporated in the f...
