Ant colony optimization for solving economic dispatch of power system / Muhammad Shukri Che Hashim

Economic dispatch is the method of determining the most efficient, low-cost and reliable operation of a power system by dispatching the available electricity generation resources to supply the load on the system. The primary objective of economic dispatch is to minimize the total cost of generation...
