Multi-objective optimization of layout with functional constraints

The conventional layout problem is concerned with finding the arrangements of components inside container to optimize objectives under geometrical constraints, i.e., no component overlap and protrusion. In this paper, multi-objective optimization for balance activity requirements functional constraints developed. Integrating accessibility as ensures maintenance or proper operation. However, addressing increase complexity optimization. A novel algorithm proposed using constructive placement simulated annealing search compromised solutions between two objectives. Thereafter, a similarity indicator defined evaluate how similar optimized designs are. experiments indicate that approach performs well in ensuring efficiently high-qualified solutions, where largely contributes alternatives satisfying constraints.
