The multi-objective optimisation of breakwaters using evolutionary approach

In engineering practice, it is often necessary to increase the effectiveness of existing protective constructions for ports and coasts (i. e. breakwaters) by extending their configuration, because existing configurations don't provide the appropriate environmental conditions. That extension task can be considered as an optimisation problem. In the paper, the multi-objective evolutionary approach for the breakwaters optimisation is proposed. Also, a greedy heuristic is implemented and included to algorithm, that allows achieving the appropriate solution faster. The task of the identification of the attached breakwaters optimal variant that provides the safe ship parking and manoeuvring in large Black Sea Port of Sochi has been used as a case study. The results of the experiments demonstrated the possibility to apply the proposed multi-objective evolutionary approach in real-world engineering problems. It allows identifying the Pareto-optimal set of the possible configuration, which can be analysed by decision makers and used for final construction

Computer-assisted workflows composition based on Virtual Simulation Objects technology

The existing approaches for scientific workflows composition face the problems of domain knowledge integration. By this paper we summarize the results, which have been elaborated and implemented during the 2-year research concerning to Virtual Simulation Objects (VSO) concept and technology development. The contribution of this paper consists of formal models of the VSO internal structures and user-assistance logic, which may be obtained as a result of the reasoning over knowledge base. (This paper was rejected to appear in "Recent Advances in Knowledge Based Technologies and Applications" by Hindawi in 2014, but was stolen and published by Ke Han under the name "The Study on Workflows Composition Based on Virtual Simulation Objects Technology")

On Classification Issues within Ensemble-Based Complex System Simulation Tasks

Contemporary tasks of complex system simulation are often related to the issue of uncertainty management. It comes from the lack of information or knowledge about the simulated system as well as from restrictions of the model set being used. One of the powerful tools for the uncertainty management is ensemble-based simulation, which uses variation in input or output data, model parameters, or available versions of models to improve the simulation performance. Furthermore the system of models for complex system simulation (especially in case of hiring ensemble-based approach) can be considered as a complex system. As a result, the identification of the complex model's structure and parameters provide additional sources of uncertainty to be managed. Within the presented work we are developing a conceptual and technological approach to manage the ensemble-based simulation taking into account changing states of both simulated system and system of models within the ensemble-based approach. The states of these systems are considered as a subject of classification with consequent inference of better strategies for ensemble evolution over the simulation time and ensemble aggregation. Here the ensemble evolution enables implementation of dynamic reactive solutions which can automatically conform to the changing states of both systems. The ensemble aggregation can be considered within a scope of averaging (regression way) or selection (classification way, which complement the classification mentioned earlier) approach. The technological basis for such approach includes ensemble-based simulation techniques using domain-specific software combined within a composite application; data science approaches for analysis of available datasets (simulation data, observations, situation assessment etc.); and machine learning algorithms for classes identification, ensemble management and knowledge acquisition.

Knowledge-based Expressive Technologies within Cloud Computing Environments

Presented paper describes the development of comprehensive approach for knowledge processing within e-Sceince tasks. Considering the task solving within a simulation-driven approach a set of knowledge-based procedures for task definition and composite application processing can be identified. This procedures could be supported by the use of domain-specific knowledge being formalized and used for automation purpose. Within this work the developed conceptual and technological knowledge-based toolbox for complex multidisciplinary task solv-ing support is proposed. Using CLAVIRE cloud computing environment as a core platform a set of interconnected expressive technologies were developed.
