Total Potential Optimization using Meta-heuristic Algorithms (TPO/MA) is an analyses technique developed by implementation of metaheuristic algorithms for finding an equilibrium state of a structural system according to the well-known principle of minimum total potential energy. According to this theory, a system is in equilibrium state only if total potential energy of it which means sum of th...

Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) has become an integral part of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) in today's life. VANET is a network that can be heavily scaled up with number vehicles and road side units keep fluctuating real world. susceptible to security issues, particularly DoS attacks, owing maximum unpredictability location. So, effective identification the classification attacks h...

: nowadays, organizations are faced with a multitude of project and investment opportunities. despite the importance of various criteria, complexity of multi-objective models and weakness of optimization algorithms often compelled manager to limit the selection criteria or only suffice to financial objects. in this paper, it is endeavored to extend selection criteria by using an efficient optim...

a high accurate and low-voltage analog cmos current divider which operates with a single power supply voltage is designed in 0.18µm cmos standard technology. the proposed divider uses a differential amplifier and transistor in triode region in order to perform the division. the proposed divider is modeled with neural network while tlbo algorithm is used to optimize it. the proposed optimization...

The Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization (TLBO) algorithm is a new meta-heuristic algorithm which recently received more attention in various fields of science. The TLBO algorithm divided into two phases: Teacher phase and student phase; In the first phase a teacher tries to teach the student to improve the class level, then in the second phase, students increase their level by interacting amon...
