چکیده

In this paper we present resource optimization methods for solving efficiently synthesis problems in a constraint-based framework. We obtain a tight lower bound of the problem optimum by adding redundant constraints that take into account the "wastage" in a partial solution. Abstraction through focusing on relevant features permits added interchangeability to deal with equivalent sets of partial solutions. Combining these two ideas allows us to discover fast the optimal solution, and also to prove very quickly its optimality.

Multi-objective scheduling and assembly line balancing with resource constraint and cost uncertainty: A “box” set robust optimization

Assembly lines are flow-oriented production systems that are of great importance in the industrial production of standard, high-volume products and even more recently, they have become commonplace in producing low-volume custom products. The main goal of designers of these lines is to increase the efficiency of the system and therefore, the assembly line balancing to achieve an optimal system i...

Optimization of an energy based bi-objective multi skilled resource investment project scheduling problem

Growing concern in the management of energy due to the increasing energy costs, has forced managers to optimize the amount of energy required to provide products and services. This research integrates an energy-based resource investment project-scheduling problem (RIP) under a multi-skilled structure of the resources. The proposed energy based multi skilled resource investment problem (EB-MSRIP...

The resource-constraint project scheduling problem of the project subcontractors in a cooperative environment: Highway construction case study

Large-scale projects often have several activities which are performed by subcontractors with limited multi-resources. Project scheduling with limited resources is one of the most famous problems in the research operations and optimization cases. The resource-constraint project scheduling problem (RCPSP) is a NP-hard problem in which the activities of a project must be scheduled to reduce the p...

Resource Constrained Project Scheduling with Material Ordering: Two Hybridized Meta-Heuristic Approaches (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Resource constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) is mainly investigated with the objective of either minimizing project makespan or maximizing project net present value. However, when material planning plays a key role in a project, the existing models cannot help determining material ordering plans to minimize material costs. In this paper, the RCPSP incorporated with the material order...

An effective method based on the angular constraint to detect Pareto points in bi-criteria optimization problems

The most important issue in multi-objective optimization problems is to determine the Pareto points along the Pareto frontier. If the optimization problem involves multiple conflicting objectives, the results obtained from the Pareto-optimality will have the trade-off solutions that shaping the Pareto frontier. Each of these solutions lies at the boundary of the Pareto frontier, such that the i...
