In recent years, many intelligent optimization algorithms have been applied to the class integration and test order (CITO) problem. These algorithms also have been proved to be able to efficiently solve the problem. Here, the design of fitness function is a key task to generate the optimal solution. To better solve the class integration and test order problem, we propose a new fitness function to generate the optimal solution that achieves a balanced compromise between the different measures (objectives) such as the total number of stubs and the total stubbing complexity in this paper. We used some programs to compare and evaluate the different approaches. The experimental results show that our proposed approach is encouraging to some extent in solving the class integration and test order problem.

This paper provides an in-depth literature review of the Black Hole Algorithm (BHA) which is considered as a recent metaheuristic. BHA has been proven to be very efficient in different applications. There has been several modifications and variants of this algorithm in the literature, so this work reviews various variants of the BHA. The applications of BHA in engineering problems, clustering, task scheduling, image processing, etc. have been thoroughly reviewed as well. This review article sheds lights on the pros and cons of this algorithm and enables finding a right variant of this algorithm for a certain application area. The paper concludes with an in-depth future direction.

optimizations have gained much consideration from the researchers working in the domains of analog and radio frequency (RF), recently. Dealing with highly nonlinear behavior of active components and aiming to meet design specifications are common issues in all nonlinear circuit designs. As a consequence and accordingly, many studies have been conducted on diverse optimization methods and algorithms for tackling the design problems and meeting optimal solutions with high accuracy. The main purpose of this article is to provide a comprehensive and systematic literature review for the optimization approaches applied by the researchers for designing various analog and microwave circuits. We focus on considering the existing optimization methods from the newly published optimization methods in the last decade. Thus, this study can guide and enlighten complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor analog and RF microwave circuit designers to consider optimization methods commonly used in both areas and to expand conventional performance figures used in their area.

This article considers a class of real-time stochastic optimization problems dependent on an unknown probability distribution. In the considered scenario, data are streaming frequently while trying to reach a decision. Thus, we aim to devise a procedure that incorporates samples (data) of the distribution sequentially and adjusts decisions accordingly. We approach this problem in a distributionally robust optimization framework and propose a novel Online Data Assimilation Algorithm (OnDA Algorithm) for this purpose. This algorithm guarantees out-of-sample performance of decisions with high probability, and gradually improves the quality of the decisions by incorporating the streaming data. We show that the OnDA Algorithm converges under a sufficiently slow data streaming rate, and provide a criteria for its termination after certain number of data have been collected. Simulations illustrate the results.

This article presents ConVex optimization-based Stochastic steady-state Tracking Error Minimization (CV-STEM), a new state feedback control framework for a class of Ito stochastic nonlinear systems and Lagrangian systems. Its innovation lies in computing the control input by an optimal contraction metric, which greedily minimizes an upper bound of the steady-state mean squared tracking error of the system trajectories. Although the problem of minimizing the bound is nonconvex, its equivalent convex formulation is proposed utilizing SDC parameterizations of the nonlinear system equation. It is shown using stochastic incremental contraction analysis that the CV-STEM provides a sufficient guarantee for exponential boundedness of the error for all time with L-2-robustness properties. For the sake of its sampling-based implementation, we present discrete-time stochastic contraction analysis with respect to a state- and time-dependent metric along with its explicit connection to continuous-time cases. We validate the superiority of the CV-STEM to PID, H-infinity, and baseline nonlinear controllers for spacecraft attitude control and synchronization problems.

ABS T R A C T In this paper, important functional parameters of solid oxide fuel cells are identified by introducing a novel high-speed optimization method, namely adaptive chaotic grey wolf optimization algorithm. The suggested optimization method is obtained by combining the adaptive grey wolf optimization and chaotic grey wolf optimization algorithms. The chaotic algorithm is applied to the basic grey wolf optimization to achieve higher convergence speed, keep the population's diversity, and provide an initial population with uniform distribution. Besides, a nonlinear convergence factor is defined for balancing the global and local exploration abilities. Employing the improved convergence factor resulted in a new version of the grey wolf optimization algorithm, namely adaptive grey wolf optimization algorithm. Adaptive chaotic grey wolf optimization algorithm adopts the advantages of both chaotic grey wolf optimization and adaptive grey wolf optimization methods simultaneously. The adaptive grey wolf optimization algorithm is applied to a 5 kW dynamic tubular stack. The results of the simulation report the lowest values of mean squared error, higher accuracy, higher robustness, and high convergence speed for the adaptive grey wolf optimization algorithm compared to some well-known optimization methods. Besides, the proposed method shows a good agreement with experimental results with lower computational difficulty. (c) 2021 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

A novel metaheuristic algorithm for global optimization, called the Solar System Algorithm (SSA), is presented. The proposed algorithm imitates the orbiting behavior of some objects found in the solar system: i.e., Sun, planets, moons, stars, and black holes. SSA is used to solve five well-known engineering design problems: three-bar truss, pressure vessel, tension/compression spring, welded beam, and gear train. The obtained results are compared to 16 state-of-the-art metaheuristic algorithms. They show that SSA is very competitive in solving the considered engineering problems. In addition, the performance of SSA is evaluated on the benchmarks CEC 2014 and CEC 2020. The experimental results are compared to 27 (12 for CEC 2014 and 15 for CEC 2020) metaheuristic algorithms. They demonstrate that SSA is very promising in finding efficient solutions.
