Cloud provides both software and hardware necessary to run various applications according to the needs of the user. To fulfil those needs of user internet connection is required to access the cloud. In...

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) has shown to be an efficient, robust and simple optimization algorithm. Most of the PSO studies are empirical, with only a few theoretical analyses that concentrate on understanding particle trajectories. This paper overviews current theoretical studies, and extend these studies to applications in mechatronic systems, such as identification, control gains and o...

A new promising strategy for the PSO (Particle swarm optimization) algorithm is proposed and described in this paper. This new strategy presents alternative way of assigning new velocity to each individual in particle swarm (population). This new multiple choice particle swarm optimization (MC-PSO) algorithm is tested on two different shifted test functions to show the performance on problems t...

Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is a metaheuristic optimization algorithm that owes much of its allure to its simplicity and its high effectiveness in solving sophisticated optimization problems. However, since the performance of the standard PSO is prone to being trapped in local extrema, abundant variants of PSO have been proposed by far. For instance, Fuzzy Adaptive PSO (FAPSO) algorithms ...

This paper proposes an improved approach based on conventional particle swarm optimization (PSO) for solving an economic dispatch(ED) problem with considering the generator constraints. The mutation operators of the differential evolution (DE) are used for improving diversity exploration of PSO, which called particle swarm optimization with mutation operators (PSOM). The mutation operators are ...

Standard particle swarm optimization is easy to fall into local optimum and has the problem of low precision. To solve these problems, the paper proposes an effective approach, called particle swarm optimization based on multiple swarms and opposition-based learning, which divides swarm into two subswarms. The 1st sub-swarm employs PSO evolution model in order to hold the self-learning ability;...
