BAT-based algorithm for finding all Pareto solutions of the series-parallel redundancy allocation problem with mixed components

Abstract

The active strategy series-parallel redundancy allocation problem (RAP) with mixed components involves setting reliable objectives for components or subsystems to meet the resource consumption constraint, for example the total cost. RAP has been actively researched for the past four decades. NP-hard problems confronted by RAP include maintaining feasibility with respect to two constraints: cost and weight. To provide all Pareto solutions to RAPs, e.g., the Fyffe RAP and Coit RAP, a novel algorithm is proposed, which is called the bound-rule-BAT (BRB). The BRB is based on the binary-addition-tree algorithm (BAT), the dominance rule, and dynamic bounds. The BRB is tested on three experiments to demonstrate its efficiency in solving the Fyffe RAP and its ability in finding all Pareto solutions of the Coit RAP.
