  • Abstract
    A bio-soft computing method with fixed-length DNA to solve an elevator dispatching problem is presented in this paper. The fixed-length DNA strands are used in representing the nodes and costs, where the costs are varied by the melting temperature of DNA strands. The optimal solution to a 6-story 2-elevator dispatching problem is searched by biochemical techniques based on the thermodynamic properties of designed DNA strands. This research has shown that bio-soft computing has the potential to solve the engineering applications, and could be implemented in the future bio-systems
