In the global supply chain system it is required to integrate production scheduling and distribution planning, in order to be more efficient and to get more economics advantages. This paper presents seafood production planning and scheduling of a fishery manufacture company which produces simultaneously multi kind of seafood products from several classes of raw fish resources. The perishability...

Introduction of services for individual users in DAB/DVB networks imposes new demands on the network architecture. The total capacity demand of the user population and its spatial distribution have to be taken into account when planning the DAB/DVB network. In this paper we formulate this new planning problem as an optimization problem, where the objective is to minimize the network cost while ...

This paper presents and demonstrates a new approach to the problem of planning under uncertainty. Actions are treated as hidden variables, with their own prior distributions, in a probabilistic generative model involving actions and states. Planning is done by computing the posterior distribution over actions, conditioned on reaching the goal state within a specified number of steps. Under the ...

Optimal multistage expansion of medium-voltage power network because of load growth is a common issue in electrical distribution planning. Minimizing total cost of the objective function with technical constraints, make it a combinatorial problem which should be solved by optimization algorithms. In this paper, a new improved hybrid Tabu Search/ Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm is proposed...

the harmonic in distribution systems becomes an important problem due to an increase in nonlinear loads. this paper presents a new approach based on a graph algorithm for optimum placement of passive harmonic filters in a multi-bus system, which suffers from harmonic current sources. the objective of this paper is to minimize the network loss, the cost of the filter and the total harmonic disto...
