Assembly line balancing is significant for efficient and cost effective production of the products and is therefore gaining popularity in recent years. However, several uncertain events in assembly lines might causes variation in the task time and due to these variations there always remains a possibility that completion time of tasks might exceed the predefined cycle time. To hedge against thi...

In order to effectively detect and discover network threats in the initial stage, this study proposes an electricity security intrusion detection method based on feature selection. A heuristic selection algorithm bee colony is proposed overcome shortcomings of existing evaluation methods. The uses average mutual information measure importance features more truly reflects relationship between se...

The optimization of energy consumption in the cloud computing environment is the question how to use various energy conservation strategies to efficiently allocate resources. The need of different resources in cloud environment is unpredictable. It is observed that load management in cloud is utmost needed in order to provide QOS. The jobs at over-loaded physical machine are shifted to under-lo...

In the basic Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm, if the fitness value associated with a food source is not improved for a certain number of specified trials then the corresponding bee becomes a scout to which a random value is assigned for finding the new food source. Basically, it is a mechanism of pulling out the candidate solution which may be entrapped in some local optimizer due to whic...
