In this paper, we propose a new hybrid evolutionary algorithm based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and on Simulated Annealing (SA) for reducing memory energy consumption in embedded systems. Our hybrid algorithm outperforms the Tabu Search (TS) approach. In fact, nearly from 76% up to 98% less energy consumption is recorded.

Suitable solutions for multi-objective optimization problems are investigated as a set of solutions in the literature, each of which satisfies the objectives at an acceptable level without being dominated by any other solution. The proposed algorithm in this paper is a hybrid of the particle swarm optimization algorithm [1] and a random search technique with quadratic approximation formula[2] n...

PSO/Snake hybrid algorithm is a merge of particle swarm optimization (PSO), a successful population based optimization technique, and the Snake model, a specialized image processing algorithm. In the PSO/Snake hybrid algorithm each particle in the population represents only a portion of the solution and the population, as a whole, will converge to the final complete solution. In this model ther...

A new adaptive hybrid optimization strategy, entitled squads, is proposed for complex inverse analysis of computationally intensive physics-based models. Typically, models are calibrated and model parameters are estimated by minimization of the discrepancy between model simulations characterizing the system and existing observations requiring a substantial number of model evaluations. Squads is...

Based on the research of complexity and non-linearity of aero-engine exhaust gas temperature (EGT) system, a regularization adaptive chaotic prediction model applied in short time forecasting of EGT was proposed. In this research, we develop a new hybrid particle swarm optimization (HPSO) arithmetic in order to improve the accuracy of the forecasting model. This arithmetic enhanced the ability ...

Transportation electrification has undergone major changes since the last decade. Success of the smart grid with renewable energy integration solely depends upon the large-scale penetration of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) for a sustainable and carbon-free transportation sector. One of the key performance indicators in the hybrid electric vehicle is the State-of-Charge (SoC), which n...

In consideration of capacity constraints, fuzzy defect ratio, and fuzzy transport loss ratio, this paper attempted to establish an optimized decision model for production planning and distribution of a multiphase, multiproduct reverse supply chain, which addresses defects returned to original manufacturers, and in addition, develops hybrid algorithms such as Particle Swarm Optimization-Genetic ...
