In this paper, we present a multi-objective optimization approach for indoor wireless network planning subject to constraints for exposure minimization, coverage maximization and power consumption minimization. We consider heterogeneous networks consisting of WiFi Access Points (APs) and Long Term Evolution (LTE) femtocells. We propose a design framework based on Multi-objective Biogeography-ba...

an alternative for decreasing risk for knowledge workers is effective & optimized work break.major performance criteria in r&d; based organization is successful projects. selection of opproporiate members can be a most effect on the projects achievement. but as the selection of r&d; special members lead to decrease of risk, repeatative participation of this people in the same project lead to kn...

Distribution centers (DCs) play important role in maintaining the uninterrupted flow of goods and materials between the manufacturers and their customers.This paper proposes a mathematical model as the bi-objective capacitated multi-vehicle allocation of customers to distribution centers. An evolutionary algorithm named non-dominated sorting ant colony optimization (NSACO) is used as the optimi...

Abstract To solve the problem of equipment installation space shortage in industrial automation sites, a set hybrid transmission schemes was designed with two-stage 2K-H(NGW) planetary reducer as main mechanism combined fixed shaft gear train and worm mechanism. At same time, to obtain design parameters electric actuator more quickly accurately, minimum volume maximum efficiency objectives, mul...

In this paper, a method based on Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA) has been presented for the Volt / Var control in power distribution systems with dispersed generation (DG). Genetic algorithm approach is used due to its broad applicability, ease of use and high accuracy. The proposed method is better suited for volt/var control problems. A multi-objective optimization problem has ...

Maintenance activities mostly depend on the specific conditions of individual equipment, being defined as personalized businesses. In order to improve efficiency maintenance for complex equipment in lots, thinking mass customization is used. After modular technology used generic model, product/service was divided into mandatory and optional modules, which can form multiple service solutions. Co...

In this paper multi-objective genetic algorithms were employed for Pareto approach optimization of turboprop engines. The considered objective functions are used to maximize the specific thrust, propulsive efficiency, thermal efficiency, propeller efficiency and minimize the thrust specific fuel consumption. These objectives are usually conflicting with each other. The design variables consist ...
