Optimizing gate scheduling at airports is an old, but also a broad problem. The main purpose of this problem is to find an assignment for the flights arriving at and departing from an airport, while satisfying a set of constraints.A closer look at the literature in this research line shows thatin almost all studies airport gate processing time has been considered as a fix parameter. In this res...

Mixed-model U-shaped assembly line balancing problems (MMUALBP) is known to be NP-hard resulting in it being nearly impossible to obtain an optimal solution for practical problems with deterministic algorithms. This paper presents a new evolutionary method called combinatorial optimisation with coincidence algorithm (COIN) being applied to Type I problems of MMUALBP in a just-in-time production...

The application of stochastic methods in engineering research and optimization has been increasing over the past few decades. Ant Colony Optimization, in particular, has been attracting growing attention as a promising approach both in discrete and continuous domains. The present work proposes a multiobjective Ant Colony Optimization for continuous domains showing good convergence properties an...

Trip distribution deals with estimation of trips distributed among origins and destinations and is one of the important stages in transportation planning. Since in the real world, trip distribution models often have more than one objective, multi-objective models are developed to cope with a set of conflict goals in this area. In a proposed method of adapted non-dominated sorting algorithm (ANS...

In this work, a new multi-objective optimization algorithm called learner performance-based behavior is proposed. The proposed based on the process of moving graduated students from high school to college. technique produces set non-dominated solutions. To test ability and efficacy algorithm, it applied group benchmarks five real-world engineering problems. Several widely used metrics are emplo...

Abstract With the development of big data and artificial intelligence, cloud resource requests present more complex features, such as being sudden, arriving in batches diverse, which cause allocation to lag far behind an unbalanced utilization that wastes resources. To solve this issue, paper proposes a proactive method based on adaptive prediction computing. Specifically, first runs test impro...

We propose a two-stage multi-objective optimization framework for full scheme solar cell structure design and characterization, cost minimization quantum efficiency maximization. evaluated structures of 15 different designs simulated by varying material types photodiode doping strategies. At first, non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm~II (NSGA-II) produced Pareto-optimal-solutions sets respe...

Trajectory planning is always a hot issue for harvesting manipulator in practice considering that the limitations of mechanical structure and other nonlinear factors lead to long harvest time, big jerk high energy consumption. The cubic spline algorithm, fifth-order polynomial interpolation fusing algorithm are used shorten reduce enhance robustness manipulator, respectively. Then trajectory pr...
