LOGOS: Optimizing Capital Budgeting
A budget optimization software for Nuclear Power Plants, using knapsack algorithms to maximize profit and reliability while minimizing costs.
Technology No. CW-20-12
LOGOS is a software package for optimizing capital budgeting. It
uses discrete optimization models to select the best combination of
items, considering their cost, reward, and constraints. The models
are based on knapsack optimization algorithms and can be either
deterministic or stochastic. LOGOS can be used for maintenance
optimization and optimal component replacement scheduling in
Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs). It helps reduce Operation and
Maintenance (O&M) costs while maintaining reliability and
availability of plant Structures, Systems, and Components (SSCs).
LOGOS integrates economic and reliability risk in a single analysis
framework and provides the optimal set of projects that maximize
profit and satisfy requirements. The input data can be
deterministic or stochastic, and the software allows custom design
of workflows using RAVEN. The methods developed in LOGOS optimize
plant resources and minimize operating costs.
