A Proposal to Implement a Monitoring and Control System ...

Oct 10, 2003 · year’s house were never established. A system optimization will greatly improve its performance. A second business goal is to design the system to be adaptable to any platform. The 2002 house may be used to build and test the system, but it will ultimately reside in the 2005 house, so it must be flexible enough to be integrated into both houses.

OVERVIEW OF HEURISTIC OPTIMIZATION

OPTIMIZATION (Eberhart Kennedy -1995) A robust stochastic optimization technique inspired by the social behavior of swarms of insects or flocks of birds –maximize “food”. Apply the concept of social interaction to problem solving. Developed in 1995 by James Kennedy (social-psychologist) and Russell Eberhart (electrical engineer).
