the major problem of wind turbines is the great variability of wind power production. the dynamic change of the wind speed returns the quantity of the power injected to networks. therefore, wind–thermal generation scheduling problem plays a key role to implement clean power producers in a competitive environment. in deregulated power systems, the scheduling problem has various objectives than i...

project scheduling   net present value   we consider a project scheduling problem with permitted tardiness and discrete time/resource trade-offs under maximum net present value objective. in this problem, a project consists of a set of sequential phases such that each phase contains one or more sub-projects including activities interrelated by finish-start-type precedence relations with a time ...
