Summary Information provided by the agent in SIGEVA
The optimal design and upgrade of sensor networks have been receiving an increase in attention for the last few years. This work presents a new methodology based on a MINLP formulation to the optimal design of reliable measurement systems with minimum cost. The applicability of the MINLP model is illustrated through the resolution of a benchmark case study taken from literature and its computational performance is compared with a genetic algorithm-based approach.
