A multi-objective genetic algorithm for optimisation of energy consumption and shop floor production performance (2016)
Journal Article
Liu, Y., Dong, H., Lohse, N., & Petrovic, S. (2016). A multi-objective genetic algorithm for optimisation of energy consumption and shop floor production performance. International Journal of Production Economics, 179, 259-272. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpe.2016.06.019

Increasing energy price and requirements to reduce emission are new chal-lenges faced by manufacturing enterprises. A considerable amount of energy is wasted by machines due to their underutilisation. Consequently, energy saving can be achieved by tu...

A step counting hill climbing algorithm (2016)
Journal Article
Bykov, Y., & Petrovic, S. (2016). A step counting hill climbing algorithm. Journal of Scheduling, 19(4), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10951-016-0469-x

This paper presents a new single-parameter local search heuristic named Step Counting Hill Climbing algorithm (SCHC). It is a very simple method in which the current cost serves as an acceptance bound for a number of consecutive steps. This is the on... Read More about A step counting hill climbing algorithm.

Knowledge-light adaptation approaches in case-based reasoning for radiotherapy treatment planning (2016)
Journal Article
Petrovic, S., Khussainova, G., & Jagannathan, R. (2016). Knowledge-light adaptation approaches in case-based reasoning for radiotherapy treatment planning. Artificial Intelligence in Medicine, 68, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.artmed.2016.01.006

Objective: Radiotherapy treatment planning aims at delivering a sufficient radiation dose to cancerous tumour cells while sparing healthy organs in the tumour-surrounding area. It is a time-consuming trial-and-error process that requires the expertis... Read More about Knowledge-light adaptation approaches in case-based reasoning for radiotherapy treatment planning.
