Abstract

Abstract In this paper a Backtracking Search Optimization Algorithm (BSA) toolkit has been developed in the LabVIEW™ environment. LabVIEW™ provides a graphical programming environment to design measurement and control applications. The development of BSA toolkit was motivated by the fact that only Differential Evolution (DE) toolkit was provided in LabVIEW™. Thus to design BSA toolkit, several modular virtual instruments have been developed for each BSA process. Developed BSA toolkit has been tested on several benchmark test functions and a comparative study with inbuilt DE toolkit has been performed, which shows results obtained from BSA toolkit are found superior to DE toolkit.
