Abstract
The article discusses the utilitarian problem of the mobile collection of waste electrical and electronic equipment. Due to its mathcal {NP}-hard nature, implies the application of approximate methods to discover suboptimal solutions in an acceptable time. The paper presents the proposal of a novel method of designing the Evolutionary and Memetic Algorithms, which determine favorable route plans. The recommended methods are determined using quality evaluation indicators for the techniques applied herein, subject to the limits characterizing the given company. The proposed Memetic Algorithm with Tabu Search provides much better results than the metaheuristics described in the available literature.
Highlights
The dynamic development of the Internet and information technology (IT) in the last several years has caused a transition to the stage of society computerization
For major values of the described parameter, the operation of the algorithms is noticeably worse, which is caused by too big limitation of the solution space, proving the parameter ζ has a significant impact on the quality of constructed route plans
This article proposed an efficient approach to designing Evolutionary Algorithms (EA) and Memetic Algorithm (MA), adjusted to solve the problem of planning the mobile waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) collection
Summary
The dynamic development of the Internet and information technology (IT) in the last several years has caused a transition to the stage of society computerization. Many IT systems are used in the daily lives of inhabitants and the functioning of companies and institutions. The rapid development of mobile application breakthroughs in the functioning of household devices, data collection, processing devices, and various sensors and controllers has been observed. This phenomenon is referred to as the Internet of Things (IoT) (Vermesan and Friess 2013). The main idea behind the IoT is the automation of various processes and activities to improve the handling of devices and facilities used by inhabitants working remotely in network structures. Contemporary IT systems supporting the functioning of communities consist of a complex IT infrastructure and various automation elements
