In this paper, multi-objective optimization of hard turning has been reported. A neural network model was developed in order to model the surface roughness and tool wear characteristics of hard turning when CBN tools are used. Objective is to obtain optimum process parameters, which satisfies given limit, tool wear and surface roughness values and maximizes the productivity at the same time. A ...

In this paper, we proposed an algorithm for solving the problem of task scheduling using particle swarm optimization algorithm, with changes in the Selection and removing the guide and also using the technique to get away from the bad, to move away from local extreme and diversity. Scheduling algorithms play an important role in grid computing, parallel tasks Scheduling and sending them to ...

This paper presents a novel approach for electrical distribution network expansion planning using multi-objective particle swarm optimization (PSO). The optimization objectives are: investment and operation cost, energy losses cost, and power congestion cost. A two-phase multi-objective PSO algorithm is employed to solve this optimization problem, which can accelerate the convergence and guaran...

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has the inherent properties of being robust to interference and frequency selective fading and is de facto the adopted multiplexing techniques for the 4 th generation wireless network systems. In wireless system, resources such as bandwidth and power are limited, intelligent allocation of these resources to users are crucial for delivering the b...

In this paper, a discrete particle swarm optimization method is proposed to solve the multi-objective task assignment problem in distributed environment. The objectives of optimization include the makespan for task execution and the budget caused by resource occupation. A two-stage approach is designed as follows. In the first stage, several artificial particles are added into the initialized s...

This paper presents an efficient and reliable Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm for solving Reactive power optimization including voltage deviation in Power System. Voltage deviation is the capability of a power system to maintain up to standard voltages at all buses in the system under standard conditions and under being subjected to a disturbance. Reactive power optimization is a co...
