In this paper, we propose an automatic design method that determines comparator topology and satisfies desired specification of the comparator by combining distributed genetic algorithm and HSPICE optimization function.In the comparator synthesis, new topology is created using known circuit topology information.After creating the topology, optimization of element values of the comparator is executed by distributed genetic algorithm and HSPICE optimization.As a target value example, specification of HA163S02 is used.Simulation results indicate that the proposed method can design the comparator despite the number of specifications and elements of circuit increase compared to the conventional methods.Furthermore, the performance of the automatic designed comparator is better than that of conventional comparators.

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate a novel design method using a genetic algorithm (GA) to automatically evolve the multiplierless CSC circuit architecture. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the described design method, several test images are adopted respectively to perform RGB to YCbCr color conversion experiment. The experimental results represent that the performance of the implemented hardware architecture is good when carrying out color space conversion from RGB to YCbCr. It also has the advantage of being high-speed, low-complexity, and low-area.

Probabilistic Roadmap Method

AbstractCurrent studies on cable harness layouts have mainly focused on cable harness route planning. However, the topological structure of a cable harness is also extremely complex, and the branch structure of the cable harness can affect the route of the cable harness layout. The topological structure design of the cable harness is a key to such a layout. In this paper, a novel multi-branch cable harness layout design method is presented, which unites the probabilistic roadmap method (PRM) and the genetic algorithm. First, the engineering constraints of the cable harness layout are presented. An obstacle-based PRM used to construct non-interference and near to the surface roadmap is then described. In addition, a new genetic algorithm is proposed, and the algorithm structure of which is redesigned. In addition, the operation probability formula related to fitness is proposed to promote the efficiency of the branch structure design of the cable harness. A prototype system of a cable harness layout design was developed based on the method described in this study, and the method is applied to two scenarios to verify that a quality cable harness layout can be efficiently obtained using the proposed method. In summary, the cable harness layout design method described in this study can be used to quickly design a reasonable topological structure of a cable harness and to search for the corresponding routes of such a harness.

This paper discusses a case study of a design and evaluation of a change management system at a large Telecommunications Corporation. The design and evaluation were done using the facilitated genetic algorithm (a parallel design method) and user decision style analysis. During the facilitated genetic algorithm the design team followed the procedure of the genetic algorithm. Usability was evaluated by applying user decision style analysis to the designed system. The design is compared with an existing system and with one designed by an analyst. The change management system designed by the facilitated genetic algorithm took less time to design and decision style analysis indicated it would be easier to use than the other two systems.

Systematic Layout Planning

To enlarge production to meet the market demand, its nessasery to improve the present facility layout for MTO (Make-To-Order) manufacturing enterprises. This paper tries to design a optimization method based on genetic algorithm for the facility layout of MTO enterprises. Firstly, SLP (systematic layout planning) was applied to analyze the material and non-material flow interrelation of the workshop. Secondly, a relatively optimum layout was determined after using fuzzy hierarchy estimation to evaluate the schemes. Then the scheme was optimized with genetic algorithm. The result shows that the optimized logistics transport load is obviously less than before. This design method based on genetic algorithm (GA) is proved feasible and effective in the optimization of facility layout.

Robust Design Method

The research work carried out in this paper introduces a robust design method for layout synthesis of MEM resonator subject to inherent geometric uncertainties such as the fabrication error on the sidewall of the structure. The robust design problem is formulated as a multi-objective constrained optimization problem with certain assumptions and treated by a special constrained genetic algorithm. The MEM design used for validation is a crab-leg resonator taken from the literature. The results show that the approach proposed in this research can lead to design results that meet the target performance and are less sensitive to geometric uncertainties than typical designs.
