....... An important problem in the realm of evolutionary multi-objective optimization (MOO) is that of finding all non-dominated fronts (NDFs). We specifically address the computational efficiency of the non-dominated sorting algorithm for finding the non-dominated fronts for the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II) algorithm. We introduce the Limiting Index Sort (LIS) algorith...

in this study, a bi-objective model for integrated planning of production-distribution in a multi-level supply chain network with multiple product types and multi time periods is presented. the supply chain network including manufacturers, distribution centers, retailers and final customers is proposed. the proposed model minimizes the total supply chain costs and transforming time of products ...

In multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO), a proper selection of local guides significantly influences detection of non-dominated solutions in the objective/solution space and, hence, the convergence characteristics towards the Pareto-optimal set. This paper presents an algorithm based on simple heuristics for selection of local guides in MOPSO, named as HSG-MOPSO (Heuristics-based...

in this paper, a novel mathematical model for a preemption multi-mode multi-objective resource-constrained project scheduling problem with distinct due dates and positive and negative cash flows is presented. although optimization of bi-objective problems with due dates is an essential feature of real projects, little effort has been made in studying the p-mmrcpsp while due dates are included i...

this paper extends the scope of algebraic computation based on a non standard × to the more basic case of a non standard +, where standard means associative and commutative. two physically meaningful examples of a non standard + are provided by the observation of motion in special relativity, from either outside (3d) or inside (2d or more), we revisit the “gyro”-theory of ungar to present the m...

this article proposes a new algorithm for finding a good approximate set of non-dominated solutions for solving generalized traveling salesman problem. Random gravitational emulation search algorithm (RGES (is presented for solving traveling salesman problem. The algorithm based on random search concepts, and uses two parameters, speed and force of gravity in physics. The proposed algorithm is ...
