This article addresses the distribution network reconfiguration problem (DNRP) and the power flow method. The studied DNRP operates on standard configurations of electrical networks. The main objectives handled are the minimization of power loss, the number of switching operations and the...

This article presents mathematics of a generic polynomial-time heuristic which can be integrated into approaches for hard combinatorial optimization problems. The proposed method evaluates objects in a way that combines fuzzy reasoning with a greedy mechanism, thereby exploiting a fuzzy solution...
