Research on distributed task planning model for multi-autonomous underwater vehicle (MAUV). A scroll time domain quantum artificial bee colony (STDQABC) optimization algorithm is proposed to solve the multi-AUV optimal task planning scheme. In the uncertain marine environment, the rolling time domain control technique is used to realize a numerical optimization in a narrowed time range. Rolling...

The escalating construction industry has led to a drastic increase in the dimension stone demand in the construction, mining and industry sectors. Assessment and investigation of mining projects and stone processing plants such as sawing machines is necessary to manage and respond to the sawing performance; hence, the soft computing techniques were considered as a challenging task due to stocha...

The minimum crossing number problem is among the oldest and most fundamental problems arising in the area of automatic graph drawing. In this paper, eight population-based meta-heuristic algorithms are utilized to tackle the minimum crossing number problem for two special types of graphs, namely complete graphs and complete bipartite graphs. A 2-page book drawing representation is employed for ...

This paper presents the comparison results on the performance of the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm for constrained optimization problems. The ABC algorithm has been firstly proposed for unconstrained optimization problems and showed that it has superior performance on these kind of problems. In this paper, the ABC algorithm has been extended for solving constrained optimization problems...

We present a stochastic, swarm intelligence-based optimization algorithm for the prediction of global minima on potential energy surfaces of molecular cluster structures. Our optimization approach is a modification of the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm which is inspired by the foraging behavior of honey bees. We apply our modified ABC algorithm to the problem of global geometry optimizat...

We modify an artificial bee colony algorithm to (i) make the population size grow over time, and to (ii) apply local search on strategically selected solutions. The modified algorithm obtains very good results on a set of large-scale continuous optimization problems. This is not the first time we see that these algorithmic components make an initially non-competitive algorithm produce state-of-...

Proteins interact with each other in a highly specific manner, and protein interactions play a key role in many cellular processes. Since protein interactions determine the outcome of most cellular processes, so identifying and characterizing Protein– Protein interactions and their networks are essential for understanding the mechanisms of biological processes on a molecular level. This paper e...

Grid computing is a new computing model; it’s performing bulk operations among the connected network. Since it is possible to run multiple applications simultaneously may require multiple resources but often do not have the resources that time scheduling system is essential for allocating resources. Scheduling algorithms must be designed for Maximize utilization of the resources and minimize th...
