  • Although the Java bytecode has numerous advantages. there ate also shortcomings such as slow execution speed and difficulty in analysis. Therefore. in order for the Java class file to be effectively executed under the execution environment such as the network, it is necessary to convert it into optimized code. We implements CTOC. CTOC generated CFG using the existing bytecode then created the SSA Form for analysis and optimization. However. due to insertion or the ${\phi}$-function in the process of conversion into the SSA Form, the number of nodes increased. As a means of reducing the number of nodes, we performed copy propagation, which is an optimization method applicable to the SSA form. Copy propagation is the process of a value of a variable being topied to another variable. There are cases where conversion due to copy propagation alone does not yield significant effects. However, when variables are not used in the later optimization stages, copy propagation provides a means for eliminating the copy statement for the corresponding variable, making it an important step. This paper shows the copy propagation to obtain a more optimized code in SSA Form.

  • Purpose: It is critical to design a set of experiments in Test and Evaluation Process for a weapon system. Because there is no sufficient resources in real-world, one must choose a subset of experiments which is considered to be more important. Methods: We introduce an optimization model for choosing the subset of experiments by considering a priority of experimental variable and level and restrictions of resources. We describe in detail how we construct objective function and constraints which must be a right realization of our logic and assumption. Conclusion: Since our optimization model turns out to be computationally difficult to solve, we introduce an algorithm for reducing the size of problem. Various computational results follows.

  • This study presents optimizing structural topology patterns using regularization of Heaviside function. The present method needs not filtering process to typical SIMP method. Using the penalty formulation of the SIMP approach, a topology optimization problem is formulated in co-operation, i.e., couple-signals, with design variable values of discrete elements and a regularized Heaviside step function. The regularization of discontinuous material distributions is a key scheme in order to improve the numerical problems of material topology optimization with 0 (void)-1 (solid) solutions. The weak forms of an equilibrium equation are expressed using a coupled regularized Heaviside function to evaluate sensitivity analysis. Numerical results show that the incorporation of the regularized Heaviside function and the SIMP leads to convergent solutions. This method is tested using several examples of a linear elastostatic structure. It demonstrates that improved optimal solutions can be obtained without the additional use of sensitivity filtering to improve the discontinuous 0-1 solutions, which have generally been used in material topology optimization problems.

  • Influence of final thickness distribution in superplastic forming processes on mechanical properties of the product becomes very crucial. We should improve the thickness distribution of products by combining process parameters adequately In this paper we adopt a non-linear optimization technique for optimal process design of superplastic forming. And optimum design variable which makes the most adequate thickness distribution in combined stretc/blow forming and blow forming is predicted by this optimization scheme and rigid-viscoplastic finite element method.

  • This paper presents a numerical analysis method to determine flange contact at variable wheel positions. The shapes of the wheel and rail surface functions with surface parameters. The Newton-Rhapson method for wheel-rail contact can provide fast solutions, but may not yield true values at optimization process with the condition that minimum distance is zero can time-consuming. A compound method, combining the Newton-Rhapson methods the optimization process method is proposed to provide exact solutions efficiently.

  • Recently, Zhao et al. [Fuzzy Optimization and Decision Making (2007) 6, 279-295] characterized the interarrival times as fuzzy random variables and presented a fuzzy random elementary renewal theorem on the limit value of the expected renewal rate of the process in the fuzzy random renewal process. They also depicted both the interarrival times and rewards are depicted as fuzzy random variables and provided fuzzy random renewal reward theorem on the limit value of the long run expected reward per unit time in the fuzzy random renewal reward process. In this note, we simplify the proofs of two main results of the paper.

  • In this paper, we propose a new architecture of Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks(FPNN) by means of genetically optimized Fuzzy Polynomial Neuron(FPN) and discuss its comprehensive design methodology involving mechanisms of genetic optimization, especially Genetic Algorithms(GAs). The conventional FPNN developed so far are based on mechanisms of self-organization and evolutionary optimization. The design of the network exploits the extended Group Method of Data Handling(GMDH) with some essential parameters of the network being provided by the designer and kept fixed throughout the overall development process. This restriction may hamper a possibility of producing an optimal architecture of the model. The proposed FPNN gives rise to a structurally optimized network and comes with a substantial level of flexibility in comparison to the one we encounter in conventional FPNNs. It is shown that the proposed advanced genetic algorithms based Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks is more useful and effective than the existing models for nonlinear process. We experimented with Medical Imaging System(MIS) dataset to evaluate the performance of the proposed model.

  • This paper presents the response surface optimization method using three-dimensional Navier-Stokes analysis to optimize the shape of a forward-curved blades centrifugal fan. For numerical analysis, Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model are discretized with finite volume approximations. In order to reduce huge computing time due to a large number of blades in forward-curved blades centrifugal fan, the flow inside of the fan is regarded as steady flow by introducing the impeller force models. Three geometric variables, i.e., location of cut off, radius of cut off, and width of impeller, and one operating variable, i.e., flow rate, were selected as design variables. As a main result of the optimization, the efficiency was successfully improved. And, optimum design flow rate was found by using flow rate as one of design variables. It was found that the optimization process provides reliable design of this kind of fans with reasonable computing time.

  • In system design, it is not always possible that all decision makers can cooperate fully and thus avoid conflict. They each control a specified subset of design variables and seek to minimize their own cost functions subject to their individual constraints. However, a system management team makes every effort to coordinate multiple disciplines and overcome such noncooperative environment. Although full cooperation is difficult to achieve, noncooperation also should be avoided as possible. Our approach is to predict the results of their cooperation and generate approximate Pareto set for their multiple objectives. The Pareto set can be obtained according to the degree of one's conceding coupling variables in the other's favor. We employ approximation concept for modelling this coordination and the mutiobjective genetic algorithm for exploring the coupling variable space for obtaining an approximate Pareto set. The approximation management concept is also used for improving the accuracy of the Pareto set. The exploration for the coupling variable space is more efficient because of its smaller dimension than the design variable space. Also, our approach doesn't force the disciplines to change their own way of running analysis and synthesis tools. Since the decision making process is not sequential, the required time can be reduced comparing to the existing multidisciplinary optimization techniques. This approach is applied to some mathematical examples and structural optimization problems.

  • A shape optimization is applied to achieve a design objective in three-dimensional forging processes. In multi-stage forging processes, among the important design aspects, the die shape fur preforming is regarded as the design variable since it influences the forged part relatively higher than the others. The rigid-plastic finite element method and the sensitivity method are employed and formulated to solve a formulated optimization problem. An approximation scheme is also used for the direction search during the optimization. The upset forging of a square box is selected as a test example in order to demonstrate and verify the optimization process of this study. After the optimization, the optimized shape of the die yields a finial product of desire shape.
