    Abstract:
    Network configurations, which maximize the accessed number of the sensor devices in IoT subjected to limited active base stations is an important topic. The weakness of traditional genetic algorithms mainly lies in that the spatial feature, i.e., the geometry distribution of base stations, is not considered. A novel genetic algorithm, in which the spatial feature of base stations is taken into account, to obtain the optimal subset of base stations in IoT is proposed. The crossover operation and the mutation operation are designated based on the spatial characteristic. Experiments have been conducted to prove the proposed algorithm for the network configuration.

    To overcome the shortcomings of classical genetic algorithm for solving flight optimization problem, improved genetic algorithm is proposed. Structure of genetic algorithm is improved first. The mutation operation is separated from the crossover operation. The second, realization of genetic operation is modified. In crossover operation, the principal of best to best is used in the individual match for the crossover operation. The selection of the crossover point is made out by chaotic series. Crossover of one point is carried out to ensure precision of the algorithm, to weaken and avoid the oscillation in the process of optimization. In the mutation, a few genes are varied by chaotic operator to avoid prematurity of the algorithm. In the end, the improved genetic algorithm is compared with two usual genetic algorithms in solving flight optimization problem.

    This paper introduces the optimization methods of Genetic Algorithm.Based on the Different Location Crossover and the Same Location Crossover,a new leading crossover is proposed.Then it is a self-adaptive manner judgment to choose which crossover is used before the crossover operator.At last,five different tests of the simulation function are given.The results show that the leading crossover is more efficient to improve convergence than other crossovers.And the new method is easy to find the optimal solution.

    The problem of automatic selection and configuration of base station sites in the dynamic scenario is investigated. We propose a intelligent approach based on Genetic Algorithm used to adjust the level of the antenna power and select the base stations’ site from the candidate sites. According to the users’ density the base stations adjust their antenna radiated power automatically. Results are given that most of base stations are powered off when the density becomes very low, and show that it will save lots of energy resources. Since this algorithm can adjust the status of base stations intelligently and automatically, it can be used in SON.

    How to select and combine many services with similar functions reasonably and efficiently to provide users with better service is the main challenge in the service composition problem. This is thorny when the number of the candidate Services is huge. Recently, researches transform the service compositions problem as a multi-objective optimizing task, and then the genetic algorithm is commonly used to tackle this issue. However, the fixed crossover probability and mutation probability settings in genetic algorithm usually result to it falls into a local optimal. To improve the performance of the genetic algorithm in the service composition task, this paper proposes an adaptive parameter adjust strategy, which can adjust the crossover probability and mutation probability automatically. The experiment result shows our method has greatly improved the maximum fitness of the final solutions of traditional genetic algorithm.
    This paper proposes a modified Order crossover operator for genetic algorithm that generates high quality solutions to the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) effectively. As the main time consuming process of crossover operator and schemata preserving process in crossover is the hole filling done in Order Crossover operator, so if the swath size is not to be too long and also depending on the problem size then it might be proven to find near optimum solutions in effective and efficient manner. The Modified Order Crossover operator constructs an offspring from a pair of parents using the existing Order Crossover operator with the enhancement on swath length (the size of a chromosome which is between two crossover sites). The efficiency of the Modified Order Crossover is compared as against some of the existing crossover operators; namely, Partially Mapped Crossover (PMX), Order Crossover (OX) & Cyclic Crossover (CX) for some benchmark TSPLIB instances. Experimental results suggest that the new crossover operator enabled improved results compared to the PMX, OX and CX for the five Travelling salesman problems tested

    It is known that selection and crossover operators contribute to generating solutions in genetic programming (GP). Traditionally, crossover points are selected randomly by a normal (canonical) crossover. However, the traditional method has several difficulties, in that building blocks (i.e. effective partial programs) are broken because of blind application of the normal crossover. This paper proposes a depth-dependent crossover for GP, in which the depth selection ratio is varied according to the depth of a node. This proposed method accumulates building blocks via the encapsulation of the depth-dependent crossover. We compare the performance of GP with depth-dependent crossover with that with normal crossover. Our experimental results clarify that the superiority of the proposed crossover to the normal method.

    This paper investigates the use of more than one crossover operator to enhance the performance of genetic algorithms. Novel crossover operators are proposed such as the Collision crossover, which is based on the physical rules of elastic collision, in addition to proposing two selection strategies for the crossover operators, one of which is based on selecting the best crossover operator and the other randomly selects any operator. Several experiments on some Travelling Salesman Problems (TSP) have been conducted to evaluate the proposed methods, which are compared to the well-known Modified crossover operator and partially mapped Crossover (PMX) crossover. The results show the importance of some of the proposed methods, such as the collision crossover, in addition to the significant enhancement of the genetic algorithms performance, particularly when using more than one crossover operator.

    Arranging university course's timetable is problematic. It differs from other timetabling problems in terms of conditions. A complete university timetable must reach several requirements involving students, subjects, lecturers, classes, laboratory's equipments, etc. This paper proposes a genetic algorithm model applied for improving effectiveness of automatic arranging university timetable. Hard constraints and soft constraints for this specific problem were discussed. In addition, the genetic elements were designed and the fitness function was proposed. Three genetic operators: crossover, mutation, and selection were employed. A simulation was conducted to obtain some results. The results show that the proposed GA model works well in arranging a university timetable. With 0.70 crossover rate, there is no hard constraints appeared in the timetable.
