this paper investigates a discrete-time impatient customer queue with bernoulli-schedule vacation interruption. the  vacation times and the service times during regular busy period and during working vacation period are assumed to follow geometric distribution. we obtain the steady-state probabilities at arbitrary and outside observer's observation epochs using recursive technique. cost an...

A new hybrid algorithm of Particle Swarm Optimization and Genetic Algorithm (PSOGA) is presented to get the optimum design of truss structures with discrete design variables. The objective function chosen in this paper is the total weight of the truss structure, which depends on upper and lower bounds in the form of stress and displacement limits. The Particle Swarm Optimization basically model...

Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) has been widely used to solve various types of optimization problems. An efficient algorithm must have symmetry information between participating entities. Enhancing efficiency relative the symmetric concept is a critical challenge in field security. PSO also becomes trapped into local optima similarly other nature-inspired algorithms. The literature depicts th...

The purpose of this research is predicting the stock prices using the Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm and Box-Jenkins method. In this way, the information of 165 corporations is collected from 2001 to 2016. Then, this research considers price to earnings per share and earnings per share as main variables. The relevant regression equation was created using two variables of earnings per sha...

Presented a new hybrid particle swarm algorithm based on P systems, through analyzing the working principle and improved strategy of the elementary particle swarm algorithm. Used the particles algorithm combined with the membrane to form a community, particles use wheel-type structure to communicate the current best particle within the community. The best particles, as Representative, compete f...

In this study, we set the average taxi time of flight as the objective of the gate and runway assignment problem. We present a gate and runway combinatorial optimization model with several restrictions such as restrictions of gate and runway time, type of aircraft and service. We design a Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization (DPSO) algorithm to solve this problem. Inspired by the genetic algori...

In this paper the Discrete Frequency Coded Waveforms (DFCWs) with good correlation properties are numerically designed utilizing Accelerated Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for MIMO Radar. To achieve this object the cost function was intended based on Peak Side lobe level Ratio (PSLR) and Integrated Side lobe Level Ratio (ISLR). The simulation results show that the DFCWs signal utilized i...

The particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) has two typical problems as in other adaptive evolutionary algorithms, which are based on swarm intelligence search. To deal with the problems of the slow convergence rate and the tendency to trap into premature, an improved particle swarm optimization with decline disturbance index (DDPSO) is presented in this paper. The index was added when the ...

Vehicle routing problem is a NP hard problem. To solve the premature convergence problem of the particle swarm optimization, an improved particle swarm optimization method was proposed. In the first place, introducing the neighborhood topology, defining two new concepts lepton and hadron. Lepton are particles within the scope of neighborhood, which have weak interaction between each other, so t...
