A Simulation-Based Optimization Model for Scheduling New Product Development Projects in Research and Development Centers
a simulation-based optimization approach for the purpose of finding a near-optimal answer can be efficient and effective. In the present paper, first, the mathematical model for the project activity scheduling problem has been presented with a job shop approach. Then, using the Arena 14 software, the simulation model has been designed. Consequently, a numerical example has been solved via runni...
متن کاملMulti-objective Reconfiguration of Distribution Network Using a Heuristic Modified Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm
In this paper, a multi-objective reconfiguration problem has been solved simultaneously by a modified ant colony optimization algorithm. Two objective functions, real power loss and energy not supplied index (ENS), were utilized. Multi-objective modified ant colony optimization algorithm has been generated by adding non-dominated sorting technique and changing the pheromone updating rule of ori...
متن کاملRadial Distribution Network Reconfiguration for Loss Reduction and Load Balancing using Plant Growth Simulation Algorithm
Network reconfiguration is a combinatorial optimization problem because it accounts various operational constraints in distribution systems. Plant Growth Simulation Algorithm has emerged as a useful optimization tool for handling nonlinear programming problems. In this paper, Plant Growth Simulation Algorithm has been proposed with a view to enhance speed and robustness. This method has been ap...
متن کاملPerformance Optimization for Skim Milk Powder Unit of a Dairy Plant Using Genetic Algorithm
The paper deals with the performance optimization for skim milk powder unit of a dairy plant at National Dairy Research Institute (N. D. R. I.), Karnal using Genetic Algorithm (G. A.). The skim milk powder unit comprises of six subsystems working in series. The failure and repair rates of the subsystems are taken from maintenance history sheets, which follow the exponential distribution. The ma...
متن کاملModified Sequential Kriging Optimization for Multidisciplinary Complex Product Simulation
Directing to the high cost of computer simulation optimization problem, Kriging surrogate model is widely used to decrease the computation time. Since the sequential Kriging optimization is time consuming, this article extends the expected improvement and put forwards a modified sequential Kriging optimization (MSKO). This method changes the twice optimization problem into once by adding more t...
