A CONSTRAINED SOLID TSP IN FUZZY ENVIRONMENT: TWO HEURISTIC APPROACHES

Resource Constrained Project Scheduling with Material Ordering: Two Hybridized Meta-Heuristic Approaches (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Resource constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) is mainly investigated with the objective of either minimizing project makespan or maximizing project net present value. However, when material planning plays a key role in a project, the existing models cannot help determining material ordering plans to minimize material costs. In this paper, the RCPSP incorporated with the material order...

qfd planning with cost consideration in fuzzy environment

در عصر حاضر که رقابت بین سازمان ها بسیار گسترش یافته است، مطالعه و طرحریزی سیستم های تولیدی و خدماتی به منظور بهینه سازی عملکرد آنها اجتناب ناپذیر می باشد. بخش عمده ای از رقابت پذیری سازمان ها نتیجه رضایتمندی مشتریان آنها است. میزان موفقیت سازمان های امروزی به تلاش آنها در جهت شناسایی خواسته ها و نیازهای مشتریان و ارضای این نیازها بستگی دارد. از طرفی کوتاه کردن زمان ارائه محصول/خدمات به مشتریان...

A Parallel Hybrid Heuristic for the TSP

In this paper we investigate the design of a coarse-grained parallel implementation of Cga-LK, a hybrid heuristic for the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). Cga-LK exploits a compact genetic algorithm in order to generate high-quality tours which are then refined by means of an efficient implementation of the Lin-Kernighan local search heuristic. The results of several experiments conducted on a...

A population heuristic for constrained two-dimensional non-guillotine cutting

A Grey Transportation Problem in Fuzzy Environment

In classical transport models, it is always assumed that parameters such as the distance from each supply node to each demand node or the cost of transferring goods from one node to another, as well as quantities such as supply and demand are definite and definite amounts. But in real matters, considering these assumptions is not logical. On the other hand, there may be a real problem in mathem...

A comparison of two heuristic approaches for distribution feeder

In this paper, a comprehensive comparison of two distinct heuristic search approaches to solve the distribution switchin9 problem is presented. One approach is' based on a priority list of switches of the main search path defined by the feeder tie switch upstream to the substation. The other approach uses evaluation functions to address the problem. Evaluation functions are defined based on fee...
