In an emergency situation (e.g., tsunami, chemical spill, fire) it may be necessary to displace people to safer locations. Evacuation plans must be prepared so that these movements are properly organized. Based on the ACO (ant colony optimization) meta-heuristic we design a computational model to optimize a multi-objective path-finding associated to an evacuation planning problem. The results a...

The non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II) is the most intensively used multi-objective evolutionary (MOEA) in real-world applications. However, contrast to several simple MOEAs analyzed also via mathematical means, no such study exists for NSGA-II so far. In this work, we show that runtime analyses are feasible NSGA-II. As particular results, prove with a population size larger t...

Background: The recent progress and achievements in the advanced, accurate, and rigorously evaluated algorithms has revolutionized different aspects of the predictive microbiology including bacterial growth.Objectives: In this study, attempts were made to develop a more accurate hybrid algorithm for predicting the bacterial growth curve which can also be ...

Low specific speed centrifugal pumps (LSSCP) are widely utilized in district energy systems to promote the integration of renewable energy. However, performance LSSCP becomes inefficient due harsh operating conditions resulting substantial increase consumption. Many-objective optimization is significant improving and promoting sustainability systems. Among existing methods, global methods limit...

Very recently, the first mathematical runtime analyses for NSGA-II, most common multi-objective evolutionary algorithm, have been conducted. Continuing this research direction, we prove that NSGA-II optimizes OneJumpZeroJump benchmark asymptotically faster when crossover is employed. Together with a parallel independent work by Dang, Opris, Salehi, and Sudholt, time such an advantage of proven ...

We address the no-wait k-stage flexible flowshop scheduling problem where there are m identical machines at each stage. The objectives are to schedule the available n jobs so that makespan and mean tardiness of n jobs are minimized. Sequence-dependent setup times are treated in this problem as one of the prominent practical assumptions. This problem is NP-hard, and therefore we present a new mu...

Mobile systems have limited resources such as battery life, network bandwidth, storage capacity, and CPU performance. These restrictions may be reduced by the extra-time computing: a heavy calculations and get results from server to server. Barry out a way to strengthen the capabilities of the transmission system, mobile computing is rich in computers. The main issue in this paper to obtain an ...

Multiagent systems have had a powerful impact on the real world. Many of the systems it studies (air traffic, satellite coordination, rover exploration) are inherently multi-objective, but they are often treated as single-objective problems within the research. A key concept within multiagent systems is that of credit assignment: quantifying an individual agent’s impact on the overall system pe...
