چکیده
1. INTRODUCTION The biological immune system is a robust, complex, adaptive system that defends the body from foreign pathogens. It is able to categorize all cells (or molecules) within the body as self-cells or non-self cells. It does this with the help of a distributed task force that has the intelligence to take action from a local and also a global perspective using its network of chemical

Utilizing Decision Making Methods and Optimization Techniques to Develop a Model for International Facility Location Problem under Uncertainty
Abstract The purpose of this study is to consider an international facility location problem under uncertainty and present an integrated model for strategic and operational planning. The paper offers two methodologies for the location selection decision. First the extended VIKOR method for decision making problem with interval numbers is presented as a methodology for strategic evaluation of po...
متن کاملUsing composite ranking to select the most appropriate Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) method in the optimal operation of the Dam reservoir
In this study, the performance of the algorithms of whale, Differential evolutionary, crow search, and Gray Wolf optimization were evaluated to operate the Golestan Dam reservoir with the objective function of meeting downstream water needs. Also, after defining the objective function and its constraints, the convergence degree of the algorithms was compared with each other and with the absolut...
متن کاملGuest editorial: a special issue on optimization techniques for business intelligence systems
Business Intelligence refers to computer-based technologies, methodologies, tools, and systems for collecting, integrating, analyzing, and presenting large volumes of information to enable better business decision making. Increasingly, as businesses becomemore automated, data-driven, and real-time, business intelligence architecture evolves to support both strategic and operational levels of bu...
متن کاملSIDE: A Decision Support System Using a Combination of Swarm Intelligence and Data Envelopment Analysis
This study proposes the design of a multi-attribute-decision-support-system that combines the analytical power of two different tools: data envelopment analysis (DEA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO), one of the major algorithms using swarm intelligence. DEA evaluates and measures the relative efficiency of decision making units that use multiple inputs and outputs to provide non-objective...
متن کاملArmentum: a hybrid direct search optimization methodology
Design of experiments (DOE) offers a great deal of benefits to any manufacturing organization, such as characterization of variables and sets the path for the optimization of the levels of these variables (settings) trough the Response surface methodology, leading to process capability improvement, efficiency increase, cost reduction. Unfortunately, the use of these methodologies is very limite...
