This makes it possible for the cellular manufacturing system to decide strategic facilities configuration adapting to changing manufacturing requirements.
The model combines both long-term facilities configuration and short-term operation strategies optimization with maximizing profit of BSS under different stochastic scenarios of BSS operation environments.
Previous works [16, 17] used queuing theory to solve the EVs' swapping facilities configuration problem, while the expectation result is not applicable for some extreme cases.
The indication of stochastic variables for wind, PV, facilities configuration and demand identification can be seen as uncertain factors according to the forecast deviations, the measurement errors, the unpredictable system contingencies or the electricity market price volatilities.
Though, coordinated operation and facilities configuration optimization model for EV charging stations are already published on some studies such as [19] and [20], there are few published works specifically on swapping stations.
Specifically, this paper's main contributions are: 1) The model combines both long-term facilities configuration and short-term operation strategies optimization with maximizing profit of BSS under different stochastic scenarios of BSS operation environments.
Phase II, branch-and-bound (list of candidate static facility configurations).
The adjustment of limited capacities in annual periods to depict alternative facility configurations realistically requires the selection among a discrete set of alternatives (Amrani et al. 2011).
We present an adaptive large neighborhood search which is enhanced by a lower bounding procedure that helps to efficiently explore promising facility configurations.
By designing three resource allocation techniques, we perform a rigorous analysis on thermal, power, and co-location aware resource management using two different facility configurations, three different workload environments, and a sensitivity analysis of the power and thermal constraints.
