in this study, under the constraint of resource-saving and environment-friendliness objective, based on multi-agent genetic algorithm, multi-objective spatial optimization (moso) model for land use allocation was developed from the view of simulating the biological autonomous adaptability to environment and the competitive-cooperative relationship. the model was applied to solve the practical m...

Received Jun 19, 2017 Revised Aug 15, 2017 Accepted Sep 7, 2017 This manuscript presents a feeder reconfiguration in primary distribution networks with an objective of minimizing the real power loss or maximization of power loss reduction. An optimal switching for the network reconfiguration problem is introduced in this article based on step by step switching and simultaneous switching. This p...

Adaptivity is one of the most critical issues related to System-on-Chip (SoC) design. In order to be runtime adaptive, SoC have to take into account changes related to user preferences and environment at runtime. Dynamically reconfigurable SoC, such as those implemented on Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), are a good solution for runtime adaptivity. Dynamic reconfiguration allows FPGAs to...

one main group of a transportation network is a discrete hub covering problem that seeks to minimize the total transportation cost. this paper presents a multi-product and multi-mode hub covering model, in which the transportation time depends on travelling mode between each pair of hubs. indeed, the nature of products is considered different and hub capacity constraint is also applied. due to ...

In this paper, a technique to systematically design analog reconfigurable integrated circuits is presented. The methodology is based on a simulation-based optimization process that uses an evolutionary multi-objective algorithm. As it is well known, this kind of algorithms relies in the concept of Paretobased dominance. To cope with the complexity of reconfiguration in analog circuits, this con...

this paper studies a new multi-objective fuzzy optimization prob- lem. the objective function of this study has dierent levels. therefore, a suitable optimized solution for this problem would be an optimized solution with preemptive priority. since, the feasible domain is non-convex; the tra- ditional methods cannot be applied. we study this problem and determine some special structures related...

This manuscript explores feeder reconfiguration in distribution networks and presents an efficient method to optimize the radial distribution system by means of simultaneous reconfiguration. Network Reconfiguration of radial distribution system is a significant way of altering the power flow through the lines. This assessment presents a modern method to solve the network reconfiguration problem...

Market-oriented production systems generally have the characteristics of multi-product and small-batch production. Dynamic virtual cellular manufacturing create cells periodically in a planning horizon to respond changing demands flexibly quickly, thus are suitable for problems market-oriented systems. In current research, we propose dynamic cell reconfiguration framework under environment with...
