Abstract EN
A modified soccer league algorithm is presented in this paper.
The effect of stubborn fixed players is investigated and the algorithm is implemented to three benchmark water distribution networks.
The modified algorithm is compared to several algorithms.
The results show that the modified algorithm performs better than the soccer league competition algorithm, in particular, on the average number of evaluations required to find the optimal cost.
Computational results show that the utility benefit of both the individual player and team is essential.
The algorithm becomes more reliable when utility benefits are high and as the number of fixed players increases.
