Exact and metahueristic approaches for optimizing the operations of chip mounter machines
Demirkale, Hüseyin; Duman, Ekrem; Alkaya, Ali Fuat (IEEE, 2010-10)Artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is recently proposed algorithm that is inspired from the foraging behavior of honey bees in nature. ABC has been applied to the continuous numerical problems. In this study, we exploit ... -
Heuristics for a generalization of TSP in the context of PCB assembly
Alkaya, Ali Fuat; Duman, Ekrem (Doğuş Üniversitesi, 2009-02)Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is one of the most well-known NP-Hard combinatorial optimization problems. Adding new constraints to the problem yields different generalizations to the problem and each new generalization ... -
A literature survey of the operation optimization in chip shooter placement machines
Alkaya, Ali Fuat; Duman, Ekrem (IEEE, 2009)Computer controlled electronic component placement machines have become major resources in electronic equipment manufacturers. They brought speed and reliability to the assembly operations. However, these machines are quite ... -
Migrating birds optimization: a new meta - heuristic approach and its application to the quadratic assignment problem
Duman, Ekrem; Uysal, Mitat; Alkaya, Ali Fuat (Springer Verlag, 2011)In this study we propose a new nature inspired metaheuristic approach based on the V formation flight of the migrating birds which is proven to be an effective formation in energy minimization. Its performance is tested ... -
Migrating Birds Optimization: a new metaheuristic approach and its performance on quadratic assignment problem
Duman, Ekrem; Uysal, Mitat; Alkaya, Ali Fuat (Elsevier, 2012-12-25)We propose a new nature inspired metaheuristic approach based on the V flight formation of the migrating birds which is proven to be an effective formation in energy saving. Its performance is tested on quadratic assignment ... -
A new generalization of the traveling salesman problem
Alkaya, Ali Fuat; Duman, Ekrem (Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences (ANAS), 2010)Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is one of the well-known NP-Complete combinatorial optimization problems. Adding new constraints yields different generalizations of the problem, and each new generalization forms the basis ... -
Scheduling continuous aluminium casting lines
Duman, Ekrem; Yıldırım, Mehmet Bayram; Alkaya, Ali Fuat (Taylor & Francis, 2008)This study considers the problem of scheduling casting lines of an aluminium casting and processing plant. In aluminium processing plants, continuous casting lines are the bottleneck resources, i.e. factory throughput is ...
