this paper considers the job scheduling problem in virtual manufacturing cells (vmcs) with the goal of minimizing two objectives namely, makespan and total travelling distance. to solve this problem two algorithms are proposed: traditional non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (nsga-ii) and knowledge-based non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (kbnsga-ii). the difference between these algor...

distribution centers (dcs) play important role in maintaining the uninterrupted flow of goods and materials between the manufacturers and their customers.this paper proposes a mathematical model as the bi-objective capacitated multi-vehicle allocation of customers to distribution centers. an evolutionary algorithm named non-dominated sorting ant colony optimization (nsaco) is used as the optimi...

in this study, a two-objective mixed-integer linear programming model (milp) for multi-product re-entrant flow shop scheduling problem has been designed. as a result, two objectives are considered. one of them is maximization of the production rate and the other is the minimization of processing time. the system has m stations and can process several products in a moment. the re-entrant flow sho...

in the new production systems, finding a way to improving the product and system reliability in design is a very important. the reliability of the products and systems may improve using different methods. one of this methods is redundancy allocation problem. in this problem by adding redundant component to sub-systems under some constraints, the reliability improved. in this paper we worked on ...

Nowadays, the capability of cloud management suppliers is one of the important advantages for suppliers that can improve the performance and flexibility and reduce costs in companies through easy access to resources. Also, the environmental impacts of suppliers are a significant issue in today’s industrialization and globalization world. This paper analyzes these subjects by fuzzy multi-objecti...

with the increase in population and consequent increasing needs of society, land use planning is of particular importance. land use planning due to being involved with several conflicting aims, multi- objective evolutionary algorithm would be a useful tool to solve land use planning. but use of these algorithms should be examined according to the type of issues. in the study, addition to introd...

This paper presents a Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm based on Decomposition (MOEA/D) for the optimal operation of a complex multipurpose and multi-reservoir system. Firstly, MOEA/D decomposes a multi-objective optimization problem into a number of scalar optimization sub-problems and optimizes them simultaneously. It uses information of its several neighboring sub-problems for optimizin...
