摘要：Recently natured based algorithms have attracted many scientists for solving optimizationproblems. Bacterial foraging algorithm is a recently proposed natured inspired algorithm which is usedto solve complex real world problems. It provides highly optimal solution and has high convergence rate.The main purpose of this paper is to generate optimized illumination patterns of lamps under givenconstraints using bacterial foraging optimization technique. The objective is to maximize cost function sothat maximum area gets illuminated while satisfying certain constraints too. Cost function is designedbased on various parameters including area to be illuminated, number of lamps, priority of lamps etc. Inaddition, effect of number of iterations on cost function has been done. Results obtained shows that 66%percent of area is covered with just 16 lamps and a total priority of 80 has been achieved.
