Using Ant Colony Optimization Metaheuristic in Forest Transportation Planning
Timber transportation is one of the most expensive activities in forest operations. Traditionally, the goal of forest transportation planning has been to find the combination of road development and harvest equipment placement that minimizes total harvesting and transportation costs. However, modern transportation problems are not driven only by economics of timber management, but also by multi...
متن کاملTime Using Ant Colony Optimization
We describe an Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm for solving a single machine scheduling problem. In the operating situation modeled, setup times are sequence dependent and the objective is to minimize total tardiness. This problem has previously been treated by Rubin & Ragatz [1995] and by Tan et al. [2000] among others. A new feature using look-ahead information in the transition rule o...
متن کاملGradient-based Ant Colony Optimization for Continuous Spaces
A novel version of Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithms for solving continuous space problems is presented in this paper. The basic structure and concepts of the originally reported ACO are preserved and adaptation of the algorithm to the case of continuous space is implemented within the general framework. The stigmergic communication is simulated through considering certain direction vect...
متن کاملTOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION OF SPACE STRUCTURES USING ANT COLONY METHOD
In this article, the ant colony method is utilized for topology optimization of space structures. Strain energy of the structure is minimized while the material volume is limited to a certain amount. In other words, the stiffest possible structure is sought when certain given materials are used. In addition, a noise cleaning technique is addressed to prevent undesirable members in optimum topol...
متن کاملSolving the Airline Recovery Problem By Using Ant Colony Optimization
In this paper an Ant Colony (ACO) algorithm is developed to solve aircraft recovery while considering disrupted passengers as part of objective function cost. By defining the recovery scope, the solution always guarantees a return to the original aircraft schedule as soon as possible which means least changes to the initial schedule and ensures that all downline affects of the disruption are ...
