The payload packing problem of a satellite module (SM3P) belongs to a complex
engineering layout and combinatorial optimization problem. SM3P can not be solved …

The layout design of a satellite module belongs to a three-dimensional (3D) packing
problem with mutual-conflicting performance constraints. Taking the layout design of a …

Marine logistics has become increasingly important as the amount of global trade has
increased. Products are usually packed in various sizes of boxes, which are then arranged …

The collaborative design of the multi-module satellite component (equipment) assignment
and layout is the key aspect of the overall satellite design, and the two parts are closely …

In previous optimization methods for multi-module satellite equipment (component) layout
optimization problem, each component was limited to certain module or supporting surface …

Purpose–The purpose of this paper is to tackle a satellite module layout design problem
(SMLDP). As a complex engineering layout and combinatorial optimization problem, SMLDP …

In recent years, hyper-heuristics have received massive attention from the research
community as an alternative of meta-heuristics. In a hyper-heuristic, generation or selection …

Design of launch vehicles is highly complex undertaking and it involves a number of
integrated disciplines and relatively a large number of design variables, so there is need of …

This paper presents seven test problems with all the optimal solutions known on the
background of the layout optimization problem of a simplified international communication …

This paper addresses a special knapsack packing problem in which identical pieces are
packed into an irregular board with unusable regions to maximize the number of pieces …
