OpenMP Teaching-Learning Based Optimization Algorithm over Multi-Core System
Статья научная
The problem with metaheuristics, including Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization (TLBO) is that, it increases in the number of dimensions (D) leads to increase in the search space which increases the amount of time required to find an optimal solution (delay in convergence). Nowadays, multi-core systems are getting cheaper and more common. To solve the above large dimensionality problem, implementation of TLBO on a multi-core system using OpenMP API’s with C/C++ is proposed in this paper. The functionality of a multi-core system is exploited using OpenMP which maximizes the CPU (Central Processing Unit) utilization, which was not considered till now. The experimental results are compared with a sequential implementation of Simple TLBO (STLBO) with Parallel implementation of STLBO i.e. OpenMP TLBO, on the basis of total run time for standard benchmark problems by studying the effect of parameters, viz. population size, number of cores, dimension size, and problems of differing complexities. Linear speedup is observed by proposed OpenMP TLBO implementation over STLBO.

Operational Mechanism and Evaluation System for Emergency Logistics Risks
Статья научная
Lots of risks existed in the operating process of emergency logistics especially when natural disasters happened. Both operating mechanism and evaluation system research on Emergency Logistics Risks (ELR) are the basis of effective recognizing, preventing and responding to risks, so it’s of great theoretical and practical significance to study the formation and influence mechanism and to establish an evaluating index system for ELR. Firstly, some foundation research about ELR was carried out, including definition, characteristics and classification of ELR. The formation and influence mechanism of ELR were discussed. The research of questionnaire survey offered an objective support for theoretical mechanism and index system establishment. Then, the evaluating index system for ELR was established. This system was a multi-level index system, and mainly evaluated by the decision-making risk, dispatching and commanding risk, organizing and coordinating risk, executing and controlling risk, resources supporting risk and their sub index. The establishment principles and significance of the index system were discussed. Then, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation and Delphi method were used to confirm the index weight and value. Finally, a case analysis on ELR of Yushu earthquake was conducted to demonstrate the evaluating index system and to evaluate the actual risk level.

Operations and Ranking Methods for Intuitionistic Fuzzy Numbers, a Review and New Methods
Статья научная
Intuitionistic Fuzzy Numbers (IFNs) transfer more information than fuzzy numbers do in uncertain situations. It is caused that many others tried to define methods for ranking of IFNs and arithmetic operations on them, which are used in practical applications of IFNs such as decision making. Arithmetic operators on IFNs changed membership and non-membership degrees. The resulted degrees have important interpretations in real application of IFNs. In this paper, we will first review the existing methods for ranking and arithmetic operations on several representations of IFNs. Then, we will propose a new method based on arithmetic mean and geometric mean to compute membership and non-membership degrees of resulted IFN from arithmetic operations on IFNs. It is caused that the resulted degrees don't change monotonousness and be closer to reality. Furthermore, a new method for ranking of IFNs will be proposed. Finally, the proposed methods are used in the numerical examples, compared to some other existing methods.

Opinion score mining: an algorithmic approach
Статья научная
Opinions are used to express views and reviews are used to provide information about how a product is perceived. People contributions lie in posting text messages in the form their opinions and emotions which may be based on different topics such as movie, book, product, and politics and so on. The reviews available online can be available in thousands, so making the right decision to select a product becomes a very tedious task. Several research works has been proposed in the past but they were limited to certain issues discussed in this paper. The reviews are collected which periodically updates itself using crawler discussed in our previous work. Further after applying certain pre-processing tasks in order to filter reviews and remove unwanted tokens, the sentiments are classified according to the novel unsupervised algorithm proposed. Our algorithm does not require annotated training data and is adequate to sufficiently classify the raw text into each domain and it is applicable enough to categorize complex cases of reviews as well. Therefore, we propose a novel unsupervised algorithm for categorizing sentiments into positive, negative and neutral category. The accuracy of the designed algorithm is evaluated using the standard datasets like IRIS, MTCARS, and HAR.

Optimal Control of Switched Systems based on Bezier Control Points
Статья научная
This paper presents a new approach for solving optimal control problems for switched systems. We focus on problems in which a pre-specified sequence of active subsystems is given. For such problems, we need to seek both the optimal switching instants and the optimal continuous inputs. A Bezier control points method is applied for solving an optimal control problem which is supervised by a switched dynamic system. Two steps of approximation exist here. First, the time interval is divided into k sub-intervals. Second, the trajectory and control functions are approximatedby Bezier curves in each subinterval. Bezier curves have been considered as piecewise polynomials of degree n, then they will be determined by n+1 control points on any subinterval. The optimal control problem is there by converted into a nonlinear programming problem (NLP), which can be solved by known algorithms. However in this paper the MATLAB optimization routine FMINCON is used for solving resulting NLP.

Optimal coordination of Inverse Definite Minimum Time (IDMT) direction overcurrent relays in the power systems in the presence of multiple Thyristor Controller Series Capacitor (TCSC) on inductive and capacitive operation mode on meshed power system is studied in this paper. The coordination problem is formulated as a non-linear constrained mono-objective optimization problem. The objective function of this optimization problem is the minimization of the operation time (T) of the associated relays in the systems, and the decision variables are: the time dial setting (TDS) and the pickup current setting (IP) of each relay. To solve this complex non linear optimization problem, a variant of evolutionary optimization techniques named Biogeography Based Optimization (BBO) is used. The proposed algorithm is validated on IEEE 14-bus transmission network test system considering various scenarios. The obtained results show a high efficiency of the proposed method to solve such complex optimization problem, in such a way the relays coordination is guaranteed for all simulation scenarios with minimum operating time. The results of new relay setting are compared to other optimization algorithms.

Presence of distributed generation (DG) in distribution systems has significant impacts on the operational characteristics of these systems, also using capacitor for reactive compensation and loss reduction is so common. Injected harmonic currents from non-linear loads into distribution system distort all of voltages and currents and must be considered when placing the capacitor banks so that the resonance will not occur. In this paper discrete particle swarm optimization (DPSO) approach is used for the optimal placement and sizing of distributed generations and capacitors in distribution systems for simultaneous voltage profile improvement, loss and total harmonic distortion (THD) reduction. There is a term in the objective function which prevents harmonic resonance between capacitor reactance and system reactance. Constraints include voltage limit, voltage THD, number/ size of capacitors and generators. For evaluating the proposed algorithm, the IEEE 33-bus test system is modified and employed.

Injected harmonic currents from non-linear loads into distribution system distort all of voltages and currents and must be considered when placing the capacitor banks so that the resonance will not occur. Distributed Generation is often connected to the network via power-electronic interfaces for a proper coupling with the distribution networks. Inverters are capable of producing harmonic components and can be used as ancillary services for reducing harmonics by designing of a proper controlling system. In this paper discrete particle swarm optimization (DPSO) approach is used for the optimal placement and sizing of distributed generations and capacitors in distorted distribution systems for simultaneous voltage profile improvement, loss and total harmonic distortion (THD) reduction. Constraints include voltage limit, voltage THD, number/ size of capacitors and generators. For evaluating the proposed algorithm, the IEEE 33-bus test system is modified and employed.

Saving energy through the minimization of power losses in a distribution system is a key activity for efficient operation. Distributed Generation (DG) is one of the most efficient approaches to minimize losses. With increase in installation of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations (EVCSs) for Electrical Vehicles (EVs) in larger scale, optimal planning of EVCSs becomes a major challenge for distribution system operator. With increased EV load penetration in the electricity system, generation-demand mismatch and power losses increases. This results in poor voltage level, and deterioration in voltage stability margin. To mitigate the adverse impacts of increasing EV load penetration on Radial Distribution Systems (RDS), it is essential to integrate EVCSs at appropriate locations. The EVs integration into smart distribution systems involves Grid-to-Vehicle (G2V) and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) in charging and discharging modes of operation respectively for exchange of power with the grid thus resulting in energy management. The inappropriate planning of EVCSs causes a negative impact on the distribution system such as voltage deviation and an increase in power losses. In order to minimize this, DG units are integrated with EVCSs. The DGs assist in keeping the voltage profile within limitations, resulting in reduced power flows and losses, thereby enhancing power quality and reliability. Therefore, the DGs should be optimally allocated and sized along with the EVCS to avoid problems such as protection, voltage rise, and reverse power flow problems. This paper showcases a method to minimize losses using optimal location and sizing of multiple DGs and EVCS operating in G2V and V2G modes. The sizing and location of different types of DG units including renewables and non-renewables along with EV charging station is proposed in this study. This methodology overall reduces the power losses and also improves voltages of the network. The implementation is done by using the Simultaneous Particle Swarm Optimization technique (PSO) for IEEE 15, 33, 69 and 85 bus systems. The results indicate that the proposed optimization technique improves efficiency and performance of the system by optimal planning and operation of both DGs and EVs.

Optimal Power Flow Solution using Efficient Sine Cosine Optimization Algorithm
Статья научная
The problem encountered in most metaheuristic methods is the choice of the good control parameters of the algorithm. That is the objective of this work by using an efficient sine cosine algorithm (ESCA) in optimal power flow problem. The sine-cosine algorithm (SCA) is a modern method applied in numerical optimization problems. It consists of search randomly the best vector of control variables from the initial group of elements and oscillates to converge to the global optimum or diverge from it, functioning with a simple formulation based on sine and cosine mathematical functions with few setting parameters. In the proposed efficient sine cosine Algorithm (ESCA) the best values of setting parameters are chosen to give the best optimum solution with fast convergence. This technique improves the quality of the solution by exploring more search domain than the SCA method. The modified algorithm has been applied to the classical IEEE 30-Bus network with various objective functions and constraints. To make the comparison of ESCA and different recent algorithms, present results show the importance of ESCA to give the best and effective solution to the multi-objective optimal power flow problem.

Статья научная
This paper proposes an efficient differential evolution (DE) algorithm for the solution of the optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) problem. The main objective of ORPD is to minimize the total active power loss with optimal setting of control variables. The continuous control variables are generator bus voltage magnitudes. The discrete control variables are transformer tap settings and reactive power of shunt compensators. In DE algorithm the other form of differential mutation operator is used. It consists to add the global best individual in the differential mutation operator to improve the solution. The DE algorithm solution has been tested on the standard IEEE 30-Bus test system to minimize the total active power loss without and with voltage profile improvement. The results have been compared to the other heuristic methods such as standard genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization method. Finally, simulation results show that this method converges to better solutions.

The essence of the technology business lies in the improvements and advancements that are continuously taking place in the industry. From vacuum tubes, diodes and transistors to the concepts of nano level designing have by and large created a revolution in the history of mankind. The biggest milestone in this journey has been the CMOS technology which has managed to survive for decades and is still an ongoing research area. However, advancing the technology includes many other dimensions which need to be taken care of. As the devices go on decreasing in size with the improving technology the power dissipation in them becomes a major issue. To counter this, a new logic called reversible logic has come into the pool of research. Further a shift from the transistor based paradigm is being explored to go down to ultra-small structures. A major breakthrough in this can be the Quantum Dot Cellular Automata (QCA) Nanotechnology. In this paper we have given a review about how the reversible logic and QCA nanotechnology together result in ultra-low power designs. Further we have optimized the design of Peres reversible gate using the concepts of explicit interaction of cells in QCA and verified the universal functionality using the optimized designs.

This paper presents binary differential evolution based optimal reporting cell planning (RCP) for location management in wireless cellular networks. The significance of mobile location management (MLM) in wireless communication has evolved drastically due to tremendous rise in the number of mobile users with the constraint of limited bandwidth. The total location management cost involves signaling cost due to location registration and location search and a trade-off between these two gives optimal location management cost. The proposed binary differential evolution (BDE) algorithm is used to determine the optimal reporting cell planning configuration such that the overall mobility management cost is minimized. Evidently, from the simulation result the proposed technique works well for the reference networks in terms of optimal cost and convergence speed. Further the applicability of the BDE is also validated for the realistic network of BSNL (Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited), Odisha.

Indian practical rural distribution systems are very long and spread over a wide range of area. The nodes far away from the distribution substation are suffering from low voltage. In India, total distribution system losses are around 20% to 25%. From the past few years, penetration of distributed generation (DG) in to the distribution network/system is increasing expeditiously. DG allocation with appropriate location and size can provide numerous benefits to the distribution companies as well as to the society. In this regard, a new technique called combined sensitivity index (CSI), to find the optimal DG unit location, based on voltage sensitivity and network load magnitude is proposed. To assess the effectiveness of the proposed technique, it is tested on Indian practical 52-bus rural distribution system. The results obtained with the proposed CSI technique is compared with the results obtained with the combined power loss sensitivity (CPLS) technique. Here, the optimal DG unit size is calculated using Bird Swarm Algorithm (BSA). The results show that the proposed CSI technique performs better in minimizing power losses and voltage profile augmentation when compared to existing CPLS technique.
