چکیده

Stochastic optimization using simulated annealing has found wide applications in combinatorial optimization of NP-complete problems in recent years, especially in VLSI related problems. The Grid Connection Problem is a combinatorial optimization problem that is proven to be NP-complete. In this paper the simulated annealing algorithm has been applied to the Grid Connection Problem. We also propose an algorithm for the Grid Connection Problem based on certain heuristics, Results of our simulations show that while both algorithms do yield good solutions, those of the simulated annealing are superior to those of the heuristic algorithm, with rare exceptions.

Optimal Operation Management of Grid-connected Microgrid Using Multi-Objective Group Search Optimization Algorithm

Utilizing distributed generations (DGs) near load points has introduced the concept of microgrid. However, stochastic nature of wind and solar power generation as well as electricity load makes it necessary to utilize an energy management system (EMS) to manage hourly power of microgrid and optimally supply the demand. As a result, this paper utilizes demand response program (DRP) and battery t...

Minimizing Makespan with Start Time Dependent Jobs in a Two Machine Flow Shop

[if gte mso 9]> The purpose of this paper is to consider the problem of scheduling a set of start time-dependent jobs in a two-machine flow shop, in which the actual processing times of jobs increase linearly according to their starting time. The objective of this problem is to minimize the makespan. The problem is known to be NP-hardness[ah1] ; therefore, there is no polynomial-time algorithm...

A Neural Network Method Based on Mittag-Leffler Function for Solving a Class of Fractional Optimal Control Problems

In this paper, a computational intelligence method is used for the solution of fractional optimal control problems (FOCP)'s with equality and inequality constraints. According to the Ponteryagin minimum principle (PMP) for FOCP with fractional derivative in the Riemann- Liouville sense and by constructing a suitable error function, we define an unconstrained minimization problem. In the optimiz...
