A powerful and efficient algorithm for numerical function optimization: artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm. Swarm intelligence is a research branch that models the population of interacting agents or swarms that are able to self-organize. An

In this paper optimal location and capacity of Unified Power Flow Controller to improve the power system stability using hybrid technique composed of ABC-GSA algorithms is proposed. Here, the maximum power loss bus is identified as the most s

The artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is a metaheuristic algorithm for numerical optimization. It is based on the intelligent foraging behavior of honey bees. This paper presents a parallel version of the algorithm for shared memory archi
