It is usually difficult to arrive at a solution that optimizes every objective. Therefore, the best way of dealing with the problem is to obtain a set of good solutions for the decision maker to select the one that best serves his/her interest. In this paper, a ratio min-max strategy is incorporated (after Pareto optimal solutions are obtained) under a weighted sum scalarization of the objectives to aid the process of identifying a best compromise solution. The bi-objective discrete optimization problem which has distance and social cost (in rail construction, say) as the criteria was solved by an improved Ant Colony System algorithm developed by the authors. The model and methodology were applied to hypothetical networks of fourteen nodes and twenty edges, and another with twenty nodes and ninety-seven edges as test cases. Pareto optimal solutions and their maximum margins of error were obtained for the problems to assist in decision making. The proposed model and method is user-friendly and provides the decision maker with information on the quality of each of the Pareto optimal solutions obtained, thus facilitating decision making.展开更多

By considering learning of workers while performing setup times, a schedule can be determined to place jobs that share similar tools and fixtures next to each other. The purpose of this paper is to schedule a set of jobs in a hybrid flow shop (HFS) environment with learning effect while minimizing two objectives that are in conflict: namely maximum completion time (makespan) and total tardiness. Minimizing makespan is desirable from an internal efficiency viewpoint, but may result in individual jobs being scheduled past their due date, causing customer dissatisfaction and penalty costs. A bi-objective mixed integer programming model is developed, and the complexity of the developed bi-objective model is compared against the bi-criteria one through numerical examples. The effect of worker learning on the structure of assigned jobs to machines and their sequences is analyzed. Two solution methods based on the hybrid water flow like algorithm and non-dominated sorting and ranking concepts are proposed to solve the problem. The quality of the approximated sets of Pareto solutions is evaluated using several performance criteria. The results show that the proposed algorithms with learning effect perform well in reducing setup times and eliminate the need for setups itself through proper scheduling.展开更多

At each iteration, a trial step is computed by minimizing a quadratic approximation model to the augmented Lagrangian function within a trust region. The model is a standard trust region subproblem for unconstrained optimization and hence can efficiently be solved by many existing methods. To choose the penalty parameter, an auxiliary trust region subproblem is introduced related to the constraint violation. It turns out that the penalty parameter need not be monotonically increasing and will not tend to infinity. A bi-object strategy, which is related to the objective function and the measure of constraint violation, is utilized to decide whether the trial step will be accepted or not. Global convergence of the method is established under mild assumptions. Numerical experiments are made, which illustrate the efficiency of the algorithm on various difficult situations.展开更多
