This paper introduces a multi-factory scheduling problem with heterogeneous factories and parallel machines. problem, as major part of supply chain planning, includes the finding suitable factory for each job assigned jobs at factory, simultaneously. For first time, this studies multi-objective in production network which has its customers demands can be satisfied by itself or other factories. ...

Mixed-model assembly lines are increasingly accepted in many industrial environments to meet the growing trend of greater product variability, diversification of customer demands, and shorter life cycles. In this research, a new mathematical model is presented considering balancing a mixed-model U-line and human-related issues, simultaneously. The objective function consists of two separate com...

nowadays, the environmental impact of transportation project and, especially air pollution impacts, are major concerns in evaluating transportation projects. based on this concern, beside definition of traditional objective functions like total travel time and total investment cost, different type of environmental related function is considered as objective function in urban network design. in...

the present paper aims to investigate the effects of modularity and the layout of subsystems and parts of a complex system on its maintainability. for this purpose, four objective functions have been considered simultaneously: i) maximizing the level of accordance between system design and optimum modularity design,ii) maximizing the level of accessibility and the maintenance space required,iii...

In this paper multi objective optimization problem for partitioning process of VLSI circuit optimization is solved using IPO algorithm. The methodology used in this paper is based upon the dynamic of sliding motion along a frictionless inclined plane. In this work, modules and elements of the circuit are divided into two smaller parts (components) in order to minimize the cutsize and area imbal...

This paper focuses on multi-objective designing of multi-machine Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) using Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm (SPEA). The TCSC parameters designing problem is converted to an optimization problem with the multi-objective function including the desired damping factor and the desired damping ratio of the power system modes, which is solved by a SPEA ...

killifish (aphanius sophiae) of the cheshme-ali of damghan and shour river of eshteherd were studied and compared from morphological point of view. for morphometric studies, 34 truss morphometric measurements and  10 traditional  measurements  were made for each individual. nine meristic traits were counted. multi-variate analysis of variance (manova) revealed a significant different between va...

this paper explores the capabilities of multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithmin a simulation-optimization model for solving waste load allocation problems. the main goals are totaltreatment costs, violation of the water quality standards and equity. in this research, the water qualitysimulation model is coupled with a multi-objective optimization model, mopso. in order to derive...

In multi-label classification (MLC), each instance is associated with a subset of labels instead of a single class, as in conventional classification, and this generalization enables the definition of a multitude of loss functions. Indeed, a large number of losses has already been proposed and is commonly applied as performance metrics in experimental studies. However, even though these loss fu...
