On the optimal control of single-stage hybrid manufacturing systems via novel and different variants of particle swarm optimization algorithm

This paper presents several novel approaches of particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm with new particle velocity equations and three variants of inertia weight to solve the optimal control problem of a class of hybrid systems, which are motivated by the structure of manufacturing environments...
