Hybrid PSO-tabu search for the optimal reactive power dispatch problem

Zahir Sahli, Abdelghani Bekrar, Damien Trentesaux, Abdelatif Hamouda

This paper presents a new approach to solve the optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) problem based on hybridizing Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Tabu-Search (TS) meta-heuristics (PSO-TS). The ORPD problem is formulated as a nonlinear constrained single-objective optimization problem where…

Cooperation mechanisms in multi-agent robotic systems and their use in distributed manufacturing control: Issues and literature review

Guillaume Demesure, Michael Defoort, Abdelghani Bekrar, Damien Trentesaux, Mohamed Djemai

This paper provides a brief overview of recent cooperation mechanisms in multi-agent systems in order to establish a starting point for a new framework based on multi-agent systems in manufacturing systems and robotics. The relationships and possibilities of cross-fertilization between robotics and…

Challenges for usability testing in ubiquitous systems.

Carla Ilane Moreira Bezerra, Rossana Maria de Castro Andrade, Rainara Maia Santos, Mourad Abed, Káthia Marçal de Oliveira, José Maria Monteiro, Ismayle S. Santos, Houcine Ezzedine

Ubiquitous computing expands both the place where the software system is used and the traditional way of interacting with its users. This happens since technologies should be fully integrated in the user daily activities in such way they become indistinguishable. So, in this scenario, new…

Early power-aware Design Space Exploration for embedded systems: MPEG-2 case study.

Fériel Ben Abdallah, Chiraz Trabelsi, Rabie Ben Atitallah, Mourad Abed

Power consumption has become one of the major concerns in embedded systems design, especially for mobile devices, which integrate many applications leading to a high power consumption. In this context, designers have the challenge to identify power issues early in the design flow and to explore the…

Predictive Usability Evaluation: Aligning HCI and Software Engineering Practices

Káthia Marçal de Oliveira, Sophie Lepreux, Christophe Kolski, Ahmed Seffah

Can we - software developers, usability experts, user interface designers - predict usability from the early user interface (UI) design artifacts and models? Can we define predictive measures to evaluate usability without a concrete UI? These questions seemed natural for us since UI modeling (task…

Hybrid Vehicle Optimal Control: Linear Interpolation and Singular Control

Sebastien Delprat, Theo Hofman

Hybrid vehicle energy management can be formulated as an optimal control problem. Considering that the fuel consumption is often computed using linear interpolation over lookup table data, a rigorous analysis of the necessary conditions provided by the Pontryagin Minimum Principle is conducted. For…

Robust fault-tolerant cruise control of electric vehicles based on second-order sliding mode observer

Suneel Kumar Kommuri, Jagat Jyoti Rath, Kalyana Chakravarthy Veluvolu, Michael Defoort

This paper presents fault-tolerant cruise control of an electric vehicle based on the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). A higher order sliding mode (HOSM) observer is designed to estimate the unknown back electro motive forces (EMFs) in the plant dynamics. A finite-time smooth estimation…
