in order to determine probable effects of sowing dates on partitioning coefficient of dry matter to different organs (leaf, stem and reproductive organs) in different wheat varieties (koohdasht, zagros and tajan) an experiment with crbd design and four replications was conducted. 5 sowing dates were included (29 december, 2007, 30 january, 2 march, 27 march, 1may, 2008). in order to quantify pa...

The paper presents a network partitioning strategy for the optimal voltage control of Active Distribution Networks (ADNs) actuated by means of a limited number of Distributed Energy Storage Systems (DESSs). The proposed partitioning uses a linear programming approach by means of the known concept of voltage sensitivities. Then, two decentralized optimal control algorithms are proposed relying, ...

Although layered coding solutions elegantly handle bandwidth heterogeneity among users in video conferencing, they also incur significant rate and complexity overheads. An alternative is partitioning the receiver sets and using non-layered coding for each group. In this paper, we investigate how to maximize the received video quality for both systems under uplink and downlink capacity constrain...

Given a set S with real-valued members, associated with each member one of two possible types; a multi-partitioning of S is a sequence of the members of S such that if x, y ∈ S have different types and x < y, x precedes y in the multi-partitioning of S. We give two distribution-sensitive algorithms for the set multi-partitioning problem and a matching lower bound in the algebraic decision-tree ...

in this paper, the development and optimization of power distribution control strategy (pdcs) have been performed for a hybrid energy storage systems (hess) of a series hybrid electric bus (sheb). a common pdcs is based on the use of ultra-capacitor (uc) pack. a new simple pdcs is developed as a battery based one. for the battery based pdcs, four parameters are introduced for tuning the pdcs pe...

Distributed applications provide access to distributed resources including memory, processor cycles, and I/O devices. It is easy to create distributed applications with poor performance, but difficult to create distributed applications with good performance. High-performance distributed applications are difficult to create in large part because the programmer must manually partition and distrib...
