Reverse logistics, which is induced by various forms of used products and materials, has received growing attention throughout this decade. In a highly competitive environment, the service level is an important criterion for reverse logistics network design. However, most previous studies about product returns only focused on the total cost of the reverse logistics and neglected the service lev...

Controllers design problems are multi objective optimization problems as the controller must satisfy several performance measures that are often conflicting and competing with each other. In multi-objective approach a set of solutions can be generated from which the designer can select a final solution according to his requirement and need. This paper presents the design and analysis Proportion...

The current overall layout planning model matrix of landscape ceramic sculpture is generally unidirectional, and the efficiency low, resulting in a decline optimization ratio model. Therefore, design verification analysis sculpture’s based on Nondominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA - II) algorithm proposed. According to actual needs standards, first set basic points, establish cross-planni...

Voltage stability has become an important issue in planning and operation of many power systems. Contingencies such as unexpected line outages in a stressed system may often result in voltage instability, which may lead to voltage collapse. This paper presents evolutionary algorithm techniques like Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA II) approach for solv...

This chapter presents the application of a comprehensive statistical analysis for both algorithmic performance comparison and optimal parameter estimation on a multi-objective digital signal processing problem. The problem of designing optimum digital finite impulse response (FIR) filters with the simultaneous approximation of the filter magnitude and phase is posed as a multiobjective optimiza...

In this paper we propose two novel approaches for solving constrained multi-objective optimization problems using steady state GAs. These methods are intended for solving real-world application problems that have many constraints and very small feasible regions. One method called Objective Exchange Genetic Algorithm for Design Optimization (OEGADO) runs several GAs concurrently with each GA opt...
