Specialized tabu search algorithm applied to the reconfiguration of radial distribution systems

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrical Power & Energy Systems
This work presents a specialized tabu search algorithm applied to the problem of electric power distribution systems primary feeders’ reconfiguration. The specialization is related to two fundamental aspects of the tabu search algorithm.

Constraint-based local search for container freight rail scheduling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A traditional container rail service is based on regular timetables. This causes a risk that some customers may turn away if their preferred itinerary is not attainable and the take-up of some services in a fixed schedule may be low and therefore not ...

Entanglement-Enhanced Quantum-Inspired Tabu Search Algorithm for Function Optimization

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2017
Many metaheuristic algorithms have been proposed to solve combinatorial and numerical optimization problems. Most optimization problems have high dependence, meaning that variables are strongly dependent on one another.

Application of the Tabu Search Algorithm to Cryptography

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications, 2017
Tabu search is a powerful algorithm that has been applied with great success to many difficult combinatorial problems. In this paper, we have designed and implemented a symmetrical encryption algorithm whose internal structure is mainly based on Tabu search algorithm.

A Local Search Algorithm for Clustering in Software as a Service Networks [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we present and analyze a model for clustering in networks that offer Software as a Service (SaaS). In this problem, organizations requesting a set of applications have to be assigned to clusters such that the costs of opening clusters and ...

Tabu Search for the Single Row Facility Layout Problem Using Exhaustive 2-Opt and Insertion Neighborhoods [PDF]

open access: yes
The single row facility layout problem (SRFLP) is the problem of arranging facilities with given lengths on a line, while minimizing the weighted sum of the distances between all pairs of facilities. The problem is NP-hard.
