Description
Book SynopsisThe text envisages novel optimization methods that significantly impact real-life problems, starting from inventory control to economic decision-making. It discusses topics such as inventory control, queueing models, timetable scheduling, fuzzy optimization, and the Knapsack problem. The book's content encompass the following key aspects:
- Presents a new model based on an unreliable server, wherein the convergence analysis is done using nature-inspired algorithms
- Discusses the optimization techniques used in transportation problems, timetable problems, and optimal/dynamic pricing in inventory control
- Highlights single and multi-objective optimization problems using pentagonal fuzzy numbers
- Illustrates profit maximization inventory model for non-instantaneous deteriorating items with imprecise costs
- Showcases nature-inspired algorithms such as particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, bat algorithm, and cuckoo search algorithm
