This paper propose a new technique which uses novel crossover with multi chromosome representation using group theory for tour construction for solving the multiple traveling salesmen problem (MTSP) using a genetic algorithm (GA) for near-optimal solutions. In the proposed algorithm, we use group tour construction method to get population having rich diversity. In group tour construction method each...
For larger system, solution space increases exponentially with the number of time periods and units in the system, therefore the computation time becomes impractical. This paper presents an improved two layer approach for solution for large systems. The first layer generate constraints satisfied high fitness population (HFP) and the second layer is incorporated with a GA algorithm for solving the...

This paper deals with the automatic generation control of a two area interconnected multi source power system using PID controller optimized by Hybrid DEPSO algorithm. Here in each area three types of of sources are being considered namely thermal, hydro and gas power plant. The system performance is analyzed with and without HVDC link. The gains of PID controllers are optimized considering integral...
This article describes the automatic generation control of a two area multi-unit interconnected power system with Proportional-Integral-Derivative controller with Filter (PIDF) tuned by teaching learning based optimization (TLBO) algorithm. Each area is equipped with three reheat thermal units with hydraulic amplifiers. The gains of the PIDF controllers are simultaneously optimized by applying a step...
In this paper, adaptive social behavior optimization has applied to synthesize the radiation pattern of the linear antenna array with controlled nulls in the direction of unwanted interference sources. The phase parameter of each array element has considered for controlling the shape of the pattern in order to steer the main beam in the desired direction and define null in the direction of interference...
This research article discuss about the optimal fuzzy-PID controller tuned by hybrid differential evolution-particle swarm optimization (DEPSO) for automatic generation control of a two area multi-unit interconnected power system. Here the scaling parameters of the suggested controllers are tuned considering a step load perturbation (SLP) of 0.01p.u. in the area1.In each area of the scrutinized system...
This study investigates the quay crane allocation problem with respect to vessel assigned to a particular discrete berth at a bulk material handling port. In the proposed model,vessels at the anchorage are berthed on a First in, first out (FIFO) basis at the port, and then the quay cranes are assigned to the berth dynamically before berthing and during unloading of the vessel. To solve the model,...
In this paper, we propose hybrid algorithm, 2-opt optimal (2-opt) heuristic mutation with nearest neighbor (NN) tour construction, for solving traveling salesman problem (TSP). In this method, we first initialize suboptimal solution with the help of NN tour construction then DPX crossover is being used and after that 2-opt heuristic method is applied to refine solution for global optimality. Standard...
In recent years, there is a rapid advancement in Information and Communication Technology (ICT). However, the explosive growth of ICT and its many applications in education, health, agriculture etc. are confined to a limited number of privileged people, who live in digital pockets. We term these underprivileged people as common people, who are digitally illiterate as well as language illiterate. According...
