Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSimulated Annealing with Deterministic DecisionsTaisir EldosProblem statement: Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithms have been used in solving a wide range of discrete optimization problems for many years, with well know drawbacks like the computational time and difficulties related to the parameters settings. One of the other issues that open the door for research is the acceptance decision that provides for hill climbing; the standard SA algorithms … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,119 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSolving the State Assignment Problem Using Stochastic Search Aided with Simulated AnnealingWalid M. AlyProblem statement: Solving the state assignment problem means finding the optimum assignment for each state within a sequential digital circuit. These optimum assignments will result in decreasing the hardware realization cost and increasing the reliability of the digital circuit. Unfortunately, the state assignment problem belongs to the class of nondeterministic polynomial time problems (NP complete) which requires heavy computations. Different … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,966 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleApplying Simulated Annealing For Optimal Operation of Multi-Reservoir SystemsF. Khodabakhshi, A. R. Ghirian, N. KhakzadThe need to optimize the operation of water reservoirs is an issue that is becoming increasingly a concern for water resources planners in developing countries. This issue particularly becomes more significant in large systems with multiple reservoirs where operation of one reservoir has an impact on the others. In other word, the set of reservoirs in these systems act like … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,620 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTraveling Salesman Approach for Solving Petrol Distribution Using Simulated AnnealingZuhaimy Ismail, Wan Rohaizad Wan IbrahimThis research presents an attempt to solve a logistic company's problem of delivering petrol to petrol station in the state of Johor. This delivery system is formulated as a travelling salesman problem (TSP). TSP involves finding an optimal route for visiting stations and returning to point of origin, where the inter-station distance is symmetric and known. This real world application … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,194 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEstimation of C*-Integral for Radial Cracks in Annular Discs under Constant Angular Velocity and Internal PressureA.R. Gowhari-Anaraki, F. Djavanroodi, S. ShadlouThe finite element method has been used to predict the creep rupture parameter, C*-Integral for single and double-edge cracks in eight annular rotating discs under constant angular velocity with and without internal pressure. In this study, a new dimensionless creeping crack configuration factor, Q* has been introduced. Power law creeping finite element analyses have been performed and the results are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,721 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptimization of Electric Power Distribution Using Hybrid Simulated Annealing ApproachWalid Ahmed, Alaa F. ShetaThe key goal of electric power distribution companies is to provide a high quality of service with a low cost of operation. The growing customer needs requires a re-distribution of the Power over various nodes of the Distributed Generation (DG) facilitates. The re-distribution might cause over load on various parts of the networks which if not correctly optimized might increase … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,606 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Scheduling Algorithm Based on Petri Nets and Simulated AnnealingRachida Hadiby Ghoul, Abdelhamid Benjelloul, Sihem Kechida, Hicham TebbikhThis study aims at presenting a hybrid Flexible Manufacturing System "HFMS" short-term scheduling problem. Based on the art state of general scheduling algorithms, we present the meta-heuristic, we have decided to apply for a given example of HFMS. That was the study of Simulated Annealing Algorithm SA. The HFMS model based on hierarchical Petri nets, was used to represent static … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,164 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIn Silico Sequence Analysis, Structure Prediction and Function Annotation of Melanocortin 1 Receptor Gene (MC1R) from the Guppy Poecilia reticulataAbdul Khader Sultan Mohideen, Mehboob Asrar Sheriff, Kareem AltaffThe common guppy, Poecilia reticulata is one of the most popular aquarium fish used as a model organism in toxicology, embryology and genetical studies. Vibrant colors in males are a secondary sexual character which attracts the females for mating. Pigmentation in guppy is found to be linked with melanin synthesis. Melanocortin genes are involved in the synthesis of melanin pigments. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 17 Nov 2015 · 8,614 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTHE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HETEROSIS AND GENETIC DISTANCES BASED ON SSR MARKERS IN HELIANTHUS ANNUUSA. V. Usatov, A. I. Klimenko, K. V. Azarin et al.Identifying the best inbred combinations for the development of commercial hybrid of sunflower remains the main challenge to sunflower breeders. In the present research the level of heterosis of F1 hybrids, genetic diversity of parental lines based on SSR markers, as well as its connection with specific combining ability of sunflower were studied. Ten sunflower elite inbred lines (3 restorer … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 7 Mar 2014 · 8,003 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Study on Factors Influencing MBA Decision After Bachelor’s Using Hybrid Model Combining ANN With Principal Component AnalysisKittipol Wisaeng, Benchalak MuangmeesriThis study comprehensively examines the complex relationship between various individual characteristics and individuals’ expectations after obtaining a bachelor’s degree, particularly in determining whether to pursue a Master of Business Administration (MBA). Utilizing a well structured, hypothesized framework, we examine several key variables directly influencing this critical decision-making process.
