A REVIEW OF RECENT ADVANCES IN GENERATOR MAINTENANCE SCHEDULING

ABSTRACT To solve the generator maintenance scheduling, in the past, several mathematical techniques have been applied. These include integer programming, integer linear programming, dynamic programming, branch and bound etc. Several heuristic search algorithms have also been developed. In recent years expert systems, fuzzy approaches, simulated annealing and genetic algorithms have also been tested. This paper presents a survey of the literature over die past fifteen years in the generator maintenance scheduling. The objective is to present a clear picture of the available recent literature of the problem, the constraints and the other aspects of the generator maintenance schedule
