Cell planning, which determines the cell structure for location management of mobile terminals in mobile communications, has been dealt with as an important research task to determine network performance. Among the factors influencing the cell structure planning in mobile communication, the signal cost for location management plays the most important role. In this paper, we propose an optimization algorithm that minimizes the location management cost of all the cells used to plan the cell structure in the network with reporting cell structure in mobile communication. The proposed algorithm uses a Tabu search algorithm, which is a meta-heuristic algorithm, and the proposed algorithm proposes a new neighborhood generation method to obtain a result close to the optimal solution. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, the simulation was performed in terms of location management cost and algorithm execution time. The evaluation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the existing genetic algorithm and simulated annealing.

Harmony Search(HS) algorithm is an emerging meta-heuristic optimization algorithm, which is inspired by the music improvisation process and has been successfully applied to solve different optimization problems. In order to further improve the performance of HS, this paper proposes a new method which is called Fast Harmony Search(FSH) algorithm. For the purpose, this paper suggest a method to unify two independent improvisation processes by newly defining the boundary value of a object variable using HM. As the result, the process time of the algorithm is shorten and explicit decision of bandwidth is no more needed. Furthermore, exploitative power of random selection is improved. The numerical results reveal that the proposed algorithm can find better solutions and is faster when compared to the conventional HS.

Sequential Ordering Problem(SOP)은 여러 개의 도시를 방문함에 있어 '어떤 도시를 다른 도시보다 먼저 방문해야 한다'는 선행제약이 있는 비대칭 순회 세일즈맨 문제(Traveling Salesman Problem)로서, 주어진 선행 제약을 만족하면서 모든 도시를 한번씩만 경유하는 가장 짧은 경로를 찾는 NP-Complete에 속하는 문제이다. 유전자 알고리즘은 SOP와 같은 조합 최적화문제에 대해 유용한 메타휴리스틱의 한가지이다. 본 논문에서는 SOP에 유전자 알고리즘을 적용할 때, 선행제약을 만족하는 해를 생성하는데 사용할 수 있는 선행관계유지 유전 연산자를 소개하고 이를 비교한다. 비교하는 유전 연산자는 선행관계유지 교차연산자, 선행관계유지 순서기반 교차연산자, 최대부분순서/임의삽입 연산자, 선행관계유지 간선재결합 연산자이다.

Let G = (V, E) be a graph. Maximum Bipartite Subgraph Problem is to convert a graph G into a bipartite graph by removing minimum number of edges. This problem belongs to NP-complete; hence, in this research, we are suggesting a new metaheuristic algorithm which combines Tabu search and GRASP.

The application of efficient constraint handling technique is fundamental method to find better solutions in engineering optimization problems with constraints. In this research four of constraint handling techniques are used with a meta-heuristic optimization method, harmony search algorithm, and the efficiency of algorithm is evaluated. The sample problem for evaluation of effectiveness is one of the typical discrete problems, optimal pipe size design problem of water distribution system. The result shows the suggested constraint handling technique derives better solutions than classical constraint handling technique with penalty function. Especially, the case of ${\varepsilon}$-constrained method derives solutions with efficiency and stability. This technique is meaningful method for improvement of harmony search algorithm without the need for development of new algorithm. In addition, the applicability of suggested method for large scale engineering optimization problems is verified with application of constraint handling technique to big size problem has over 400 of decision variables.

The differential evolution algorithm is one of the meta-heuristic techniques developed to solve the real optimization problem, which is a continuous problem space. In this study, in order to use the differential evolution algorithm to solve the traveling salesman problem, which is a discontinuous problem space, a random key representation method is applied to the differential evolution algorithm. The differential evolution algorithm searches for a real space and uses the order of the indexes of the solutions sorted in ascending order as the order of city visits to find the fitness. As a result of experimentation by applying it to the benchmark traveling salesman problems which are provided in TSPLIB, it was confirmed that the proposed differential evolution algorithm based on the random key representation method has the potential to solve the traveling salesman problems.

The minimum energy broadcast problem is for all deployed nodes to minimize a total transmission energy for performing a broadcast operation in wireless networks. In this paper, we propose a Tabu search algorithm to solve efficiently the minimum energy broadcast problem on the basis of meta-heuristic approach in wireless sensor networks. In order to make a search more efficient, we propose a novel neighborhood generating method and a repair function of the proposed algorithm. We compare the performance of the proposed algorithm with other existing algorithms through some experiments in terms of the total transmission energy of nodes and algorithm computation time. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is efficient for the minimum energy broadcast problem in wireless sensor networks.

Droplet impingement on solid surfaces is pivotal for a range of spray and heat transfer processes. This study aims to optimize the cooling performance of single droplet impingement on heated textured surfaces. We focused on maximizing the cooling effectiveness or the total contact area at the droplet maximum spread. For efficient estimation of the optimal values of the unknown variables, we introduced an enhanced Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO). These novel algorithms incorporate its developed theoretical backgrounds to compare proper optimized results. The comparison, considering the peak values of objective functions, computation durations, and the count of penalty particles, confirmed that PSO method offers swifter and more efficient searches, compared to GA algorithm, contributing finding the effective way for the spray and droplet impingement process.

During the modern battlefields of multi-batches flight formation attack situation, it is an essential task for a commander to make a proper fire distribution of air defense missile launch platforms for threat targets with effectively and quickly. Pan et al. try to solve this problem using genetic algorithm, but they are fails. This paper gets the initial feasible solution using high threat target first destroying strategy only use 75% available fire of each missile launch platform. Then, the assigned missile is moving to another target in the case of decreasing total threat. As a result of experiment, while the proposed algorithm is polynomial-time complexity greedy algorithm but this can be improve the solution than genetic algorithm.

In recent years, the use of broadband bandwidth and redundant links for stable transmission in networks has resulted in excessive energy consumption and reduced transmission efficiency. In this paper, we propose an optimization algorithm that reduces the number of transmission links and minimizes transmission energy by removing redundant traffic in networks where traffic redundancy is allowed. The optimization algorithm proposed in this paper uses the meta-heuristic method using Tabu search algorithm. The proposed optimization algorithm minimizes transmission energy by designing a neighborhood generation method that efficiently routes overlapping traffic. The performance evaluation of the proposed optimization algorithm was performed in terms of the number of links used to transmit all traffic generated in the network and the transmission energy consumed. From the performance evaluation results, it was confirmed that the proposed algorithm is superior to other algorithms previously proposed.
