Economic Power Dispatch Of Power Systems With Pollution Control Using Artificial Bee Colony Optimization, Linda Slimani, Tarek Bouktir Jan 2013

Economic Power Dispatch Of Power Systems With Pollution Control Using Artificial Bee Colony Optimization, Linda Slimani, Tarek Bouktir

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper presents a solution for the emission-controlled economic dispatch (ECED) problem of medium-sized power systems via an artificial bee colony algorithm. The ECED problem, which accounts for the minimization of both the fuel cost and the emission, is a multiple objective function problem. The objective is to minimize the total fuel cost of the generation and environmental pollution caused by fossil-based thermal generating units and to also maintain an acceptable system performance in terms of the limits on the generator's real and reactive power outputs, bus voltages, shunt capacitors/reactors, and power flow of transmission lines. The proposed algorithm is …


Xor-Based Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm For Binary Optimization, Mustafa Servet Kiran, Mesut Gündüz Jan 2013

Xor-Based Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm For Binary Optimization, Mustafa Servet Kiran, Mesut Gündüz

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, which was inspired by the foraging and dance behaviors of real honey bee colonies, was first introduced for solving numerical optimization problems. When the solution space of the optimization problem is binary-structured, the basic ABC algorithm should be modified for solving this class of problems. In this study, we propose XOR-based modification for the solution-updating equation of the ABC algorithm in order to solve binary optimization problems. The proposed method, named binary ABC (binABC), is examined on an uncapacitated facility location problem, which is a pure binary optimization problem, and the results obtained by …
