Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents advances and innovations in grouping genetic algorithms, enriched with new and unique heuristic optimization techniques. These algorithms are specially designed for solving industrial grouping problems where system entities are to be partitioned or clustered into efficient groups according to a set of guiding decision criteria. Examples of such problems are: vehicle routing problems, team formation problems, timetabling problems, assembly line balancing, group maintenance planning, modular design, and task assignment. A wide range of industrial grouping problems, drawn from diverse fields such as logistics, supply chain management, project management, manufacturing systems, engineering design and healthcare, are presented. Typical complex industrial grouping problems, with multiple decision criteria and constraints, are clearly described using illustrative diagrams and formulations. The problems are mapped into a common group structure that can conveniently be used as an input scheme to specific variants of grouping genetic algorithms. Unique heuristic grouping techniques are developed to handle grouping problems efficiently and effectively. Illustrative examples and computational results are presented in tables and graphs to demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of the algorithms. Researchers, decision analysts, software developers, and graduate students from various disciplines will find this in-depth reader-friendly exposition of advances and applications of grouping genetic algorithms an interesting, informative and valuable resource.

This book was released on 2019-12-27 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the rapid growth of technology in society, communication networks have become a heavily researched topic. Implementing these advanced systems is a challenge, however, due to the abundance of optimization problems within these networks. The use of meta-heuristic algorithms and nature-inspired computing has become a prevalent technique among researchers for solving these complex problems within communication networks. Despite its popularity, this specific computing technique lacks the appropriate amount of research that is needed for professionals to grasp a definite understanding. Nature-Inspired Computing Applications in Advanced Communication Networks is a collection of innovative research on the methods and applications of natural computation techniques and algorithms within communication systems such as wireless sensor networks, vehicular adhoc networks, and internet of things. While highlighting topics including mobile sensor deployment, routing optimization, and sleep scheduling, this book is ideally designed for researchers, network professionals, computer scientists, mathematicians, developers, scholars, educators, and students seeking to enhance their understanding of nature-inspired computing and its solutions within various advanced communication networks.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most important issues for manufacturing systems is to determine the optimal job sequence over the production period. Mixed model assembly line is a kind of manufacturing systems which is able to deal with variable market demand. In this research, an effective utilization of mixed-model assembly line is considered as problem statement through implementing different production strategies. The problem under study contains set of mixed-model assembly line where finding the optimal job sequence based on different production strategies is the objective of this research. Different production strategies have different objectives to be met, meanwhile the sequence of jobs can be varied based on different production strategies. The main contribution of the study was implementing four production strategies in mixed-model assembly line problems, so the company can take advantage of proposed production model in different situations to meet the challenges. The first production strategy aims to minimize the make span of assembly lines and release the products to the market as soon as possible. The second production strategies attempts to minimize the make-span, and also balancing the assembly lines. It helps to balance the workload among all assembly lines. Minimizing the variation of completion time is also considered as third production strategy. The last production strategy aims to provide ideal status for assembly lines by minimizing the make-span and variation of completion time, and balancing the assembly lines. Due to NP-hard nature of sequencing problem in mixed model assembly line, a genetic algorithm is applied to cope with problem complexity and obtain a near optimal solution in a reasonable amount of time. All data is taken from literature and the result obtained from genetic algorithm procedure for the first production strategy is compared to study mentioned in literature which represents an improvement of 5% in shortening the make-span for one set of product. For the rest of production strategies, simulated annealing algorithm is applied to check the well performance of proposed genetic algorithm through reaching the same solutions for each production strategy. In all production strategies both GA and SA reaches to the same job sequence and same value of objective functions. It confirms that the proposed genetic algorithm procedure is able to tackle the problem complexity and reach to optimal solutions in different production strategies.

Download or read book Balancing and Sequencing of Assembly Lines written by Armin Scholl and published by Physica. This book was released on 1999-02-26 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book deals with two main decision problems which arise when flow-line production systems are installed and operated. The assembly line balancing problem consists of partitioning the work, necessary to assemble the product(s), among different stations of an assembly line. If several models of a product are jointly processed on a line, this medium-term problem is connected with the short-term problem of determining an operating sequence of the models. In Part I balancing and sequencing problems are discussed, classified, and arranged within a hierarchical planning system. In the present second edition special emphasis is given to u-shaped assembly lines which are important components of modern just-in-time production systems. Part II is concerned with exact and heuristic procedures for solving those decision problems. For each problem type considered, a survey of existing procedures is given and new efficient solution methods are developed. Comprehensive numerical investigations showing the effectiveness of the new methods and their superiority over existing approaches are reported.
