This paper describes an optimisation methodology that has been specifically developed for engineering design problems. The methodology is based on a Tabu search (TS) algorithm that has been shown to find high quality solutions with a relatively low number of objective function evaluations. Whilst the methodology was originally intended for a small range of design problems it has since been successfully applied to problems from different domains with no alteration to the underlying method. This paper describes the method and its application to three different problems. The first is from the field of structural design, the second relates to the design of electromagnetic pole shapes and the third involves the design of turbomachinery blades.

Floor space optimization is a critical revenue management problem commonly encountered by retailers. It maximizes store revenue by optimally allocating floor space to product categories which are assigned to their most appropriate planograms. We form ulate the problem as a connected multi-choice knapsack problem with an additional global constraint and propose a tabu search based meta-heuristic that exploits the multiple special neighborhood structures. We also incorporate a mechanism to determine how to combine the multiple neighborhood moves. A candidate list strategy based on learning from prior search history is also employed to improve the search quality. The results of computational testing with a set of test problems show that our tabu search heuristic can solve all problems within a reasonable amount of time. Analyses of individual contributions of relevant components of the algorithm were conducted with computational experiments.

The goal of quantum circuit transformation is to map a logical circuit to a physical device by inserting additional gates as few as possible in an acceptable amount of time. We present an effective approach called TSA to construct the mapping. It con sists of two key steps: one makes use of a combined subgraph isomorphism and completion to initialize some candidate mappings, the other dynamically modifies the mappings by using tabu search-based adjustment. Our experiments show that, compared with state-of-the-art methods GA, SABRE and FiDLS proposed in the literature, TSA can generate mappings with a smaller number of additional gates and it has a better scalability for large-scale circuits.
Application of the multi-objective particle swarm optimisation (MOPSO) algorithm to design of water distribution systems is described. An earlier MOPSO algorithm is augmented with (a) local search, (b) a modified strategy for assigning the leader, an d (c) a modified mutation scheme. For one of the benchmark problems described in the literature, the effect of each of the above features on the algorithm performance is demonstrated. The augmented MOPSO algorithm (called MOPSO+) is applied to five benchmark problems, and in each case, it finds non-dominated solutions not reported earlier. In addition, for the purpose of comparing Pareto fronts (sets of non-dominated solutions) obtained by different algorithms, a new criterion is suggested, and its usefulness is pointed out with an example. Finally, some suggestions regarding future research directions are made.
This paper mainly investigates the circular open dimension problem (CODP), which consists of packing a set of circles of known radii into a strip of fixed width and unlimited length without overlapping. The objective is to minimize the length of the strip. An iterated tabu search approach, named ITS, is proposed. ITS starts from a randomly generated solution and attempts to gain improvements by a tabu search procedure. After that, if the obtained solution is not feasible, a perturbation operator is subsequently employed to reconstruct the incumbent solution and an acceptance criterion is implemented to determine whether or not accept the perturbed solution. This process is repeated until a feasible solution has been found or the allowed computation time has been elapsed. Computational experiments based on well-known benchmark instances show that ITS produces quite competitive results with respect to the best known results. For 18 representative CODP instances taken from the literature, ITS succeeds in improving 13 best known results within reasonable time. In addition, for another challenging related variant: the problem of packing arbitrary sized circles into a circular container, ITS also succeeds in improving many best known results. Supplementary experiments are also provided to analyze the influence of the perturbation operator, as well as the acceptance criterion.
