Modeling, Simulation, and Optimization

"This book features selected contributions in the areas of modeling, simulation, and optimization. The contributors discusses requirements in problem solving for modeling, simulation, and optimization. Modeling, simulation, and optimization have increased in demand in exponential ways and how potential solutions might be reached. They describe how new technologies in computing and engineering have reduced the dimension of data coverage worldwide, and how recent inventions in information and communication technology (ICT) have inched towards reducing the gaps and coverage of domains globally. The chapters cover how the digging of information in a large data and soft-computing techniques have contributed to a strength in prediction and analysis, for decision making in computer science, technology, management, social computing, green computing, and telecom. The book provides an insightful reference to the researchers in the fields of engineering and computer science. Researchers, academics, and professionals will benefit from this volume. Features selected expanded papers in modeling, simulation, and optimization from COMPSE 2016; Includes research into soft computing and its application in engineering and technology; Presents contributions from global experts in academia and industry in modeling, simulation, and optimization" -- Proporcionat per l'editor Preface 6 Contents 8 1 Texture Synthesis and Design Based on Element Distribution Creation 10 1.1 Introduction 10 1.2 Element Distribution Creation 11 1.2.1 Connectivity Construction and Analysis 11 1.2.2 Local and Global Growth 13 1.3 Texture Elements Placement 15 1.3.1 Texture Elements Extraction 15 1.3.2 Texture Element Deformation 17 1.4 Experimental Results and Discussions 18 1.5 Conclusions 21 References 21 2 Selective Encryption Using Natural Language Processing for Text Data in Mobile Ad Hoc Network 23 2.1 Introduction 23 2.1.1 Challenges Faced by MANET 24 2.1.2 MANET Susceptibility to Attacks 25 2.2 Literature Review 25 2.3 Concept of Selective Encryption 26 2.3.1 Steps of Selective Encryption While Processing Messages 27 2.3.2 Full Data Encryption 29 2.3.3 Toss-a-Coin Method 29 2.4 Selective Significant Data Encryption (SSDE) 29 2.5 Result Analysis 30 2.6 Conclusion 33 References 34 3 A Novel Hybrid Artificial Bee Colony with Monarch Butterfly Optimization for Global Optimization Problems 35 3.1 Introduction 35 3.2 Proposed HAM Algorithm 37 3.3 Experimental Evaluation 40 3.3.1 General Setup 40 3.3.1.1 Hardware and Software Implementation 40 3.3.1.2 Parameters 40 3.3.2 Benchmark Function 41 3.4 Results 41 3.5 Conclusion 43 References 46 4 Domain Model Definition for Domain-Specific Rule Generation Using Variability Model 47 4.1 Introduction 47 4.2 Related Work 49 4.3 Business Process Models and Constraints 50 4.4 Ontology-Based Conceptual Domain Model 51 4.5 Language Definition of a Domain Model 52 4.5.1 Language Description 52 4.5.2 Syntax 53 4.5.3 Abstract Syntax 53 4.5.4 Concrete Syntax 54 4.6 Rule Language Definition 55 4.7 Implementation of Principle Architecture of DSRL Generator 56 4.7.1 Architecture 57 4.7.2 Mappings Domain Model and Domain-Specific Rule Language 58 4.7.3 Domain Model Translation into DSR 58 4.8 Generated Rule Analysis and Evaluation 59 4.9 Discussion 61 References 61 5 Hybridizing Bat Algorithm with Modified Pitch Adjustment Operator for Numerical Optimization Problems 64 5.1 Introduction 64 5.2 The Hybrid Bat Harmony Algorithm 66 5.3 Experimental Evaluation 69 5.3.1 General Setup 69 5.3.1.1 Hardware and Software Implementation 69 5.3.1.2 Compared Algorithms 69 5.3.1.3 Parameters 69 5.3.2 Benchmark Function 71 5.4 Results 71 5.5 Conclusion 74 References 75 6 Consolidation of Host-Based Mobility Management Protocols with Wireless Mesh Network 77 6.1 Introduction 77 6.2 Related Works 78 6.3 Terminology 81 6.3.1 Host-Based Mobility Management Protocols 81 6.3.1.1 Mobile Internet Protocol Version 6 (MIPv6) 81 6.3.1.2 Hierarchical Mobile Internet Protocol Version 6 (HMIPv6) 82 6.3.1.3 Fast Handover Mobile Internet Protocol Version 6 (FMIPv6) 84 6.3.1.4 Fast Handover for Hierarchical Mobile Internet Protocol Version 6 (FHMIPv6) 86 6.3.2 Wireless Mesh Network 87 6.4 Simulation Design 88 6.4.1 Simulation Setup 88 6.4.2 Performance Metrics 90 6.5 Results and Discussion 90 6.6 Conclusion 94 References 94 7 Performance Evaluation of Hot Mix Asphalt Concrete by Using Polymeric Waste Polyethylene 96 7.1 Introduction 96 7.2 Materials and Methods 97 7.2.1 Polyethylene 97 7.2.2 Bituminous Materials and Preparation 98 7.2.3 Aggregates 98 7.2.4 Gradation of Aggregates 98 7.3 Results 99 7.3.1 Penetration Value 99 7.3.2 Softening Points 100 7.3.3 Percentage of Polymer Added, Fire Point, and Flash Point 100 7.4 Discussion 101 7.5 Conclusion 103 7.6 Acknowledgment 103 References 103 8 Evaluation of Technical Efficiency of Thermal Power Units in Mexico: Data Envelopment Analysis and Stochastic Frontiers 105 8.1 Introduction 105 8.2 Power Generation in the Mexican Electricity System 106 8.2.1 The Wholesale Electricity Market 111 8.3 Technical Efficiency 113 8.3.1 Data Envelopment Analysis 114 8.3.2 Stochastic Frontier 115 8.4 Efficiency of Thermal Power Units in Mexico 117 8.4.1 Data Envelopment Analysis 117 8.4.2 Stochastic Frontier Model 119 8.4.3 Comparison of Methodologies: DEA and Stochastic Frontier 121 8.5 Cause Analysis of Inefficiency 122 8.6 Conclusions 123 References 125 Index 127 Front Matter ....Pages i-viii Texture Synthesis and Design Based on Element Distribution Creation (Yan Gui, Yang Liu, Feng Li)....Pages 1-13 Selective Encryption Using Natural Language Processing for Text Data in Mobile Ad Hoc Network (Ajay Kushwaha, Hari Ram Sharma, Asha Ambhaikar)....Pages 15-26 A Novel Hybrid Artificial Bee Colony with Monarch Butterfly Optimization for Global Optimization Problems (Waheed Ali H.
