This chapter provides a description of multiobjective optimization software with a general overview of selected few available tools developed in the last decade. This chapter can be considered a revision of previous valid papers and chapters on nonlinear multiobjective optimization software such as the ones written by Weistroffer et al. (2005) and Miettinen (1999) that lists existing software p...

In this paper, a novel compensator based on Magnetically Controlled Reactor with Fixed Capacitor banks (FC-MCR) is introduced and then power system stability in presence of this compensator is studied using an intelligent control method. The problem of robust FC-MCR-based damping controller design is formulated as a multi-objective optimization problem. The multi-objective problem is concocted ...

This paper addresses a robust multi-objective optimization approaches for tuning Generator Excitation PSS system parameters of power systems. The objective function which is a composite of different performance indices corresponding to different disturbances and steady-state operating conditions is then posed as a multi-objective nonlinear optimization problem together with parameters from a gi...

this paper proposes per unit coding for combined economic emission load dispatch problem. in the proposed coding, it is possible to apply the percent effects of elements in any number and with high accuracy in objective function. in the proposed per unit coding, each function is transformed into per unit form based on its own maximum value and has a value from 0 to 1. in this paper, particle sw...

In this paper, a globally convergent Newton-type proximal gradient method is developed for composite multi-objective optimization problems where each objective function can be represented as the sum of smooth and nonsmooth function. The proposed deals with unconstrained convex problems. This free from any kind priori chosen parameters or ordering information functions. At every iteration method...

despite the growing use of evolutionary multi-objective optimization algorithms in different categories of science, these algorithms as a powerful tool in portfolio optimization and specially solving multi-objective portfolio optimization problem is still in its early stages. in this paper, moeas have been used for solving multi-objective portfolio optimization problem in tehran stock market. f...

Network reconfiguration is a nonlinear optimization procedure which calculates a radial structure to optimize the power losses and improve the network reliability index while meeting practical constraints. In this paper, a multi-objective framework is proposed for optimal network reconfiguration with the objective functions of minimization of power losses and improvement of reliability index. T...

in financial matters, portfolio can be interpreted as a combination or a series of investments hold by an institution or a person. portfolio optimization is one of the most important concerns of investors for maximizing the portfolio in financial markets. the formation of portfolio is a vital and critical decision for the companies.  in fact, the selection of portfolio is to specify the capital...
