  1. 21. Scaling and distribution of Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithms on Microsoft Azure

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för programvaruteknik

    Author : Nikolaos Delis; [2023]
    Keywords : PSO; Optimization; Scaling; Parallelization; Azure Durable Functions;

    Abstract : Introduction. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is a heavy-duty algorithm that is used to identify the optimum (maximum or minimum) solution of a formula with multiple unknown factors. PSO algorithms are used widely for various optimization problems, and all face the same challenge. READ MORE

  2. 22. Modeling of an Electrolysis System for Techno-Economic Optimization of Hydrogen Production

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Jürgen Köstlbacher; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydrogen; Hydrogen Production; Green Hydrogen; LCOH; Electrolysis; PEM; AEL; MILP; Optimization; Techno-Economic Analysis; Cost Optimization; PPA; vätgas; vätgasproduktion; grön vätgas; LCOH; elektrolys; PEM; AEL; MILP; optimering; tekniskekonomisk analys; kostnadsoptimering; PPA;

    Abstract : In face of climate change, Europe and other global actors are in the process of transitioning to carbon-neutral economies, aiming to phase out of fossil fuels and power industries with renewable energies. Hydrogen is going to play a crucial role in the transition, replacing fossil fuels in hard-to-decarbonize industries and acting as energy carrier and energy storage for renewable electricity.

    Abstract : Cancer remains a significant global challenge, constituting one of the leading causes of death worldwide. With an aging population, the demand for cancer treatments is increasing. Nevertheless, due to technological advancements, cancer mortality rates are declining. READ MORE

  5. 25. Comparing Quantum Annealing and Simulated Annealing when Solving the Graph Coloring Problem

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Nora Odelius; Isak Reinholdsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Quantum Computing; Quantum Annealing; Simulated Annealing; Graph Coloring Problem; Kvantberäkningar; Quantum Annealing; Simulated Annealing; Graffärgningsproblemet;

    Abstract : Quantum annealing (QA) is an optimization process in quantum computing similar to the probabilistic metaheuristic simulated annealing (SA). The QA process involves encoding an optimization problem into an energy landscape, which it then traverses in search for the point of minimal energy representing the global optimal state. READ MORE
