Give a directed graph , where V is a set of nodes, E is a set of edges with a non-negative transit-time function . For each node , a time window ?within which the node may be visited and ?, is non-negative of the service and leaving time of the node. A source node s, a destination node d and a departure time?t0, the time-dependent shortest path problem with time windows asks to find an s, d-path that leaves a source node s at a departure time t0;and minimizes the total arrival time at a destination node d. This formulation generalizes the classical shortest path problem in which ce are constants. Our algorithm of the time windows gave the generalization of the ALT algorithm and A* algorithm for the classical problem according to Goldberg and Harrelson [1], Dreyfus [2] and Hart et al. [3].展开更多

In previous work, we have developed a coarse-grained parallel GA-based shortest path routing algorithm. With parallel GA, there is a GA operator called migration, where a chromosome is taken from one sub-population to replace a chromosome in another sub-population. Which chromosome to be taken and replaced is subjected to the migration strategy used. There are four different migration strategies that can be employed: best replace worst, best replace random, random replace worst, and random replace random. In this paper, we are going to evaluate the effect of different migration strategies on the parallel GA-based routing algorithm that has been developed in the previous work. Theoretically, the migration strategy best replace worst should perform better than the other strategies. However, result from simulation shows that even though the migration strategy best replace worst performs better most of the time, there are situations when one of the other strategies can perform just as well, or sometimes better.展开更多

A multi-attribute graph has simultaneously qualitative and quantitative criteria. This situation gives rise to incomparable paths thus forming the Pareto front. Outranking methods in Multi-criteria Decision Making (MCDM) are the only methods that can take into account this situation (incomparability of actions). After presenting the categories of Multi-criteria Decision Making (MCDM) and the difficulties related to the problems of the shortest paths, we propose an evolutionary algorithm based on the outranking methods to solve the problem of finding “best” paths in a multi-attribute graph with non-additive criteria. Our approach is based on the exploration of induced subgraphs of the outranking graph. Properties have been established to serve as algorithmic basis. Numerical experiments have been carried out and the results presented in this article.展开更多

Meanwhile, the parallel APSP pipelining algorithm makes full use of overlapping technique between computation and communication. Compared with broadcast operation, the parallel algorithm reduces communication cost. This algorithm has been implemented on MPI on PC-cluster. The theoretical analysis and experimental results show that the parallel algorithm is an efficient and scalable algorithm.展开更多

This often implies that alternative flight paths have to be used by aircraft to avoid adverse weather. To reduce the impact of such path re-routes, exact techniques such as artificial potential field model and Dijkstra’s algorithms have been proposed. However, such approaches are often unsuitable for real time scenarios involving large number of waypoints and constraints. This has led to the use of metaheuristic techniques that give sub-optimal solutions in good time. In this work, an improved genetic algorithm-based technique has been proposed. The algorithm used an improved mutation operator, reduced passenger inconvenience and considered the schedules of aircraft.展开更多

In MOA,the solution space is iteratively searched through global exploration and local exploitation by intelligent searching individuals,who are named as atoms. MOA is employed to locate the shortest path through iterations of global path planning and local path refinements in the proposed path planning approach. In each iteration,a group of global atoms are employed to perform the global path planning aiming at finding some candidate paths rapidly and then a group of local atoms are allotted to each candidate path for refinement. Further,the traditional indirect encoding scheme is modified to reduce the possibility of constructing an infeasible path from an array. Comparative experiments against two other frequently use intelligent optimization approaches: Genetic Algorithm( GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization( PSO) are conducted on benchmark test problems of varying complexity to evaluate the performance of MOA. The results demonstrate that MOA outperforms GA and PSO in terms of optimality indicated by the length of the located path.展开更多
