Parallel tabu search for capacitor placement in radial distribution systems

摘要: This paper proposes a new method for determining capacitor placement in distribution systems. The proposed makes use of parallel tabu search to evaluate better solution terms computational effort and accuracy. is hard solve sense global optimization due the high nonlinear mixed integer problem. To problem efficiently, this focuses on that one efficient meta-heuristics. Tabu than conventional methods adaptive memory allows escape from local minimum cost function. In paper, improve performance large-scale Parallel considers both decomposition neighborhood multiplicity lengths. successfully applied sample A comparison made between methods.
