Microgrid implementation often lacks economic and environmental efficiencies due to sub-optimal configuration operation. The current study aims explore the optimal operational strategies for a microgrid system with maximum life cycle co-benefits. This was inspired by real optimization need Shoals Marine Laboratory, seasonal marine teaching research field station on Appledore Island, Maine. A dy...

We propose a Mamdani-Type Fuzzy Inference based posterior decision-making approach to multi-objective diet optimization problem. optimize the problem with evolutionary algorithms that result in tens/hundreds of non-dominated solutions which is too large pick one them by decision-maker. Even though all are optimized for objectives simultaneously, not objective functions may be equally important ...

Abstract In many real-world scenarios, the utility of a user is derived from single execution policy. this case, to apply multi-objective reinforcement learning, expected returns must be optimised. Various scenarios exist where user’s preferences over objectives (also known as function) are unknown or difficult specify. such set optimal policies learned. However, settings maximised have been la...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a method to evaluate the relative efficiency of decision making units (dmus). in this method, the issue has always been to determine a set of weights for each dmu which often caused many problems. since the dea models also have the multi-objective linear programming (molp) problems nature, a rational relationship can be established between molp and dea problem...

    Supplier selection,   Multi-objective decision making,   Fuzzy Compromise programming,   Supply chain management,   Quantity discount .   Supplier selection is naturally a complex multi-objective problem including both quantitative and qualitative factors. This paper deals with this issue from a new view point. A quantity discount situation, which plays a role of motivator for buyer, is con...

There are many opportunities and threats in the decision-making environment for managers, and an organization must use research and information systems to change, monitor, and anticipate this environment. Futurism reflects how tomorrow reality gives birth to tomorrow's reality is. The purpose of this research; Analyzing the role of futures studies in the existing patterns of critical factors of...

The traditional way of designing energy pile system is mostly single domain/objective oriented, which lacks means to coherently consider different while relevant factors across domains. cost for life cycle design, construction and maintenance, return investment, CO2 emission related sustainable requirements, so on also need be considered, in a systematic manner, along with the main functional d...
