Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSlime Mould Reproduction: A New Optimization Algorithm for Constrained Engineering ProblemsRajalakshmi Sakthivel, Kanmani SelvaduraiIn recent explorations of biologically inspired optimization strategies, the Slime Mould Reproduction (SMR) algorithm emerges as an innovative meta-heuristic optimization technique. This algorithm is deeply rooted in the reproductive dynamics observed in slime molds, particularly the intricate balance these organisms strike between local and global spore dispersal. By replicating this balance, the SMR algorithm deftly navigates between exploration and exploitation … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 21 Dec 2023 · 5,943 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Review of Covering Arrays and Their Application to Software TestingBestoun S. Ahmed, Kamal Z. ZamliProblem statement: As a complex logic system, software may suffer from different source of faults. Those faults can be avoided by applying different testing processes. It appears recently that the interaction among the system factors represents a common source of faults. Software function properly, all input factors and their interactions of the software need to be tested i.e., exhaustive testing. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 23 Jul 2011 · 8,707 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA 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 accessIn the abstractSolving Multi-Objective Master Production Scheduling Model of Kalak Refinery System Using Hybrid Evolutionary Imperialist Competitive AlgorithmShereen Saleem Sadiq, Adnan Mohsin Abdulazeez, Habibollah HaronThe improvement of operational planning in the field of oil refinery management is becoming increasingly essential and valid. The influential primary factor, among others, is the ever-changing economic climate. The industry must continually assess the potential impacts of variations in the final product demand, price fluctuations, crude oil compositions and even seek out immediate opportunities within the market. The Master … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 12 Feb 2020 · 7,827 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Strategy to Optimize Lean Supply Chain Design by Meta-HeuristicThi Hong Dang Nguyen, Thien My DaoThis paper aims at presenting one novel quantitative strategy of optimizing the design of Lean supply chain using Meta-Heuristics. While classifying Lean Manufacturing tools in two categories, namely Functional and Tier Lean tools, we propose a new framework to design the Lean supply chain by implementing the former into a 5-echelon Fat supply chain. As the following step, we investigate … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2017 · 7,948 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractCombinatorial Interaction Testing of Software Product Lines: A Mapping StudyMohd Zanes Sahid, Abu Bakar Md Sultan, Abdul Azim Abdul Ghani, Salmi BaharomSoftware Product Line (SPL) is a software engineering paradigm that is inspired by the concept of reusability of common features, formulated for different software product. Complete testing on entire SPL is known to be unfeasible, due to the very large number of possible products to be produced, configured using a subset or all possible features in the SPL. This paper … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 8 · 20 Oct 2016 · 8,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTraveling 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 accessAll words, across the recordA Randomized Population Constructive Heuristic for the Team Orienteering ProblemManal ZettamThe NP-hard (complete) team orienteering problem is a particular vehicle routing problem with the aim of maximizing the profits gained from visiting control points without exceeding a travel cost limit. The team orienteering problem has a number of applications in several fields such as athlete recruiting, technician routing and tourist trip. Therefore, solving optimally the team orienteering problem would play … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 9 · 17 Jun 2017 · 8,285 accessesView PDFCite
