Abstract This paper introduces a multi-objective variant of the marine predators algorithm (MPA) called improved (MOIMPA), which incorporates concepts from Quantum theory. By leveraging theory, MOIMPA aims to enhance MPA’s ability balance between exploration and exploitation find optimal solutions. The utilizes concept inspired by Schrödinger wave function determine position particles in search...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a nonparametric approach to estimate relative efficiency of decision making units (dmus). dea and is one of the best quantitative approach and balanced scorecard (bsc) is one of the best qualitative method to measure efficiency of an organization. since simultaneous evaluation of network performance of the quad areas of bsc model is considered as a necessity a...

in this study, under the constraint of resource-saving and environment-friendliness objective, based on multi-agent genetic algorithm, multi-objective spatial optimization (moso) model for land use allocation was developed from the view of simulating the biological autonomous adaptability to environment and the competitive-cooperative relationship. the model was applied to solve the practical m...

In this paper, we model multi-class multi-stage assembly systems with finite capacity as queueing networks. It is assumed that different classes (types) of products are produced by the production system and products’ orders for different classes are received according to independent Poisson processes. Each service station of the queueing network specifies a manufacturing or assembly operation, ...

The time and space assembly line balancing problem (TSALBP) is a realistic multiobjective version of assembly line balancing industrial problems involving the joint optimization of conflicting criteria such as the cycle time, the number of stations, and the area of these stations. However, the existing problem formulation does not consider the industrial scenario where the demand of a set of mi...

one main group of a transportation network is a discrete hub covering problem that seeks to minimize the total transportation cost. this paper presents a multi-product and multi-mode hub covering model, in which the transportation time depends on travelling mode between each pair of hubs. indeed, the nature of products is considered different and hub capacity constraint is also applied. due to ...

Objective: Regulatory T cells (Treg) have a critical role in controlling responding T cells (Tresp), thereby preventing autoimmune manifestations including those observed in adenosine deaminase (ADA) enzyme-deficient patients and mice (ADA-KO). Treg suppress various functions of Tresp such as proliferation, cytokine production and expression of activation markers, yet it is not known if Treg su...
