A multi-agent system for decentralized multi-project scheduling with resource transfers

Adhau, Sunil; Mittal, M.L.; Mittal, Abhinav - In: International Journal of Production Economics 146 (2013) 2, pp. 646-661

The companies dealing with multiple projects are geographically distributed at different locations. These projects require local (always available to the concerned project) and global (shared among the projects) resources that are available in limited quantity. The global resources are generally...

A heuristic approach to stochastic cutoff grade optimization for open pit mining complexes with multiple processing streams

Asad, Mohammad Waqar Ali; Dimitrakopoulos, Roussos - In: Resources Policy 38 (2013) 4, pp. 591-597

Cutoff grade specifies the available supply of metallic ore from an open pit mine to the multiple processing streams of an open pit mining complex. An optimal cutoff grade strategy maximizes the net present value (NPV) of an open pit mining operation subject to the mining, processing, and...

An Integer Linear Programming based heuristic for the Capacitated m-Ring-Star Problem

Naji-Azimi, Zahra; Salari, Majid; Toth, Paolo - In: European Journal of Operational Research 217 (2012) 1, pp. 17-25

We address the Capacitated m-Ring-Star Problem in which the aim is to find m rings (simple cycles) visiting a central depot, a subset of customers and a subset of potential (Steiner) nodes, while customers not belonging to any ring must be “allocated” to a visited (customer or Steiner) node....

The analysis of expected fitness and success ratio of two heuristic optimizations on two bimodal MaxSAT problems

Lai, Xinsheng; Zhou, Yuren - In: Journal of Global Optimization 54 (2012) 4, pp. 745-764

Heuristic algorithms, especially hill-climbing algorithms, are prone to being trapped by local optimization. Many … researchers have focused on analyzing convergence and runtime of some heuristic algorithms on SAT-solving problems. However, there …
