  2. 1. A bilevel approach to parameter tuning of optimization algorithms using evolutionary computing : Understanding optimization algorithms through optimization

    Author : Martin Andersson; Amos Ng; Sunith Bandaru; Kalyanmoy Deb; Juergen Branke; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Production and Automation Engineering; Produktion och automatiseringsteknik;

    Abstract : Most optimization problems found in the real world cannot be solved using analytical methods. For these types of difficult optimization problems, an alternative approach is needed. READ MORE

  4. 2. Maintenance optimization for power distribution systems

    Author : Patrik Hilber; Lina Bertling; Roland Eriksson; Lalit Goel; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reliability Importance Index; Multiobjective Optimization; Maintenance Optimization; Asset Management; Customer Interruption Cost; Reliability Centred Maintenance RCM ; Reliability Centered Asset Management RCAM ; Monte Carlo Simulation; Evolutionary Particle Swarm Optimization.; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Abstract : Maximum asset performance is one of the major goals for electric power distribution system operators (DSOs). To reach this goal minimal life cycle cost and maintenance optimization become crucial while meeting demands from customers and regulators. READ MORE

    Abstract : The scope of this thesis is modelling and solving large-scale planning problems in the supply chain within the forest industry. Five research papers are included, the first three of which focus on the modelling, and the last two on the solution methods. READ MORE

  6. 4. Offline Task Scheduling in a Three-layer Edge-Cloud Architecture

    Author : Ayeh Mahjoubi; Karl-Johan Grinnemo; Arunselvan Ramaswamy; Alessandro Papadopoulos; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; task offloading; task scheduling; edge computing; internet of things; optimization techniques; heuristics; meta-heuristics; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Internet of Things (IoT) devices are increasingly being used everywhere, from the factory to the hospital to the house to the car. IoT devices typically have limited processing resources, so they must rely on cloud servers to accomplish their tasks. Thus, many obstacles need to be overcome while offloading tasks to the cloud.

  7. 5. JOINING SEQUENCE ANALYSIS AND OPTIMIZATION FOR IMPROVED GEOMETRICAL QUALITY

    Author : Roham Sadeghi Tabar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Efficiency; Optimization; Sequencing; Geometrical Quality; Non-Rigid Variation Simulation; Joining;

    Abstract : Disturbances in the manufacturing and assembly processes cause geometrical variation from the ideal geometry. This variation eventually results in functional and aesthetic problems in the final product. Being able to control the disturbances is the desire of the manufacturing industry. READ MORE
