An efficient assignment and scheduling of tasks is one of the key elements in effective utilization of heterogeneous multiprocessor systems. The task scheduling problem has been proven to be NP-hard is the reason why we used meta-heuristic methods for finding a suboptimal schedule. In this paper we proposed a new approach using TRIZ (specially 40 inventive principles). The basic idea of thi...

The evolution scheme phase, in which the genetic algorithms select individuals that will form new population, had an important impact on these algorithms. Many approaches exist literature. However, consider only value of fitness function to differenciate best solutions from worst ones. This article introduces parenting fitness, a novel parameter, defines capacity individual produce fittest offs...

This paper describes a Genetic Algorithms approach to amanpower-scheduling problem arising at a Petrochemical Company. AlthoughGenetic Algorithms have been successfully used for similar problemsin the past, they always had to overcome the limitations of theclassical Genetic Algorithms paradigm in handling the conflict betweenobjectives and constraints. The approach taken here is to use an indir...

in this paper, we study wsn design, as a multi-objective optimization problem using ga technique. we study the effects of ga parameters including population size, selection and crossover method and mutation probability on the design. choosing suitable parameters is a trade-off between different network criteria and characteristics. type of deployment, effect of network size, radio communication...

Reactive power dispatch for voltage profile modification has been of interest Abstract to powerr utilities. Usually local bus voltages can be altered by changing generator voltages, reactive shunts, ULTC transformers and SVCs. Determination of optimum values for control parameters, however, is not simple for modern power system networks. Heuristic and rather intelligent algorithms have to be so...

in this study, we present a mrcpsp/max (multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem with minimum and maximum time lags) model with minimization tardiness costs and maximization earliness rewards of activities as objective. the proposed model is nearby to real-world problems and has wide applications in various projects. this problem is not available in the literature exactly and ...
