  • Abstract
    The authors´ effort in presenting a hybrid heuristic method combining real coded genetic algorithm and special class of ant colony optimization for economic dispatch (ED) problems is commendable. The feasibility of the proposed method to solve ED is shown, by experimenting with four test systems considering 3, 6, 15, and 40 units with convex and nonconvex cost functions and also three benchmark functions.
