Xiao Dong Zhang, Jin Cheng Zhang, Fan Yu Zeng · Advanced materials research · 2013
Time-cost optimization problem in service-workflows is a widely existing problem hard to be solved in practical systems. In this paper, an Niche Technique multi-objective PSO method is proposed. Generating initial optimal solutions with single-objective. External Population and Niche Technique and Meshing hybrid method is introduced to obtain an evenly distributed Pareto set. Experimental results prove that the proposed algorithm is efficient and effective. For various characteristic instances, more evenly distributed Pareto Sets are obtained with high quality.
