A Concurrent Modelling to Generate Alternatives Approach Using the Firefly Algorithm
نویسندگان
چکیده
The pressure vessel design problem is a well-known design benchmark for validating bioinspired optimization algorithms. However, its global optimality is not clear and there has been no mathematical proof put forward. In this paper, a detailed mathematical analysis of this problem is provided that proves that 6059.714335048436 is the global minimum. The Lagrange multiplier method is also used as an alternative proof and this method is extended to find the global optimum of a cantilever beam design problem.

A Biologically-Inspired Metaheuristic Procedure for Modelling- to-Generate-Alternatives
In finding solutions to many “real world” engineering optimizationproblems, it is generally desirable to be able to construct several quantifiably good alternatives that provide very different perspectives to the particular problem. This is because complex decision-making situations typically involve problems riddled with incompatible performance objectives and possess competing design requirem...

In data grid, using reservation is accepted to provide scheduling and service quality. Users need to have an access to the stored data in geographical environment, which can be solved by using replication, and an action taken to reach certainty. As a result, users are directed toward the nearest version to access information. The most important point is to know in which sites and distributed sy...
متن کاملA Hybrid Algorithm using Firefly, Genetic, and Local Search Algorithms
In this paper, a hybrid multi-objective algorithm consisting of features of genetic and firefly algorithms is presented. The algorithm starts with a set of fireflies (particles) that are randomly distributed in the solution space; these particles converge to the optimal solution of the problem during the evolutionary stages. Then, a local search plan is presented and implemented for searching s...
