from 60 decade  sustainability issues  and sustainable developing  have opened a way in scientific meetings associated with  environment and urbanization and architecture. sustainability goals are improving of environment situation , less pollution  and at least interference on  land and interaction of  natural and artificial environment , that most of these cases attracted attention in archite...

This work presents a procedural content generation system that uses an evolutionary algorithm in order to generate interesting maps for a real-time strategy game, called Planet Wars. Interestingness is here captured by the dynamism of games (i.e., the extent to which they are action-packed). We consider two different approaches to measure the dynamism of the games resulting from these generated...

The business values of intellectual capital (IntC) and innovation capability (InnoC) are enduring research questions, especially for high-tech firms. Although each one has been recognized as a critical factor for firm’s competitiveness, few studies discussed the influence of IntC and InnoC on firm performance in one integrated framework. Moreover, the moderating effects of environmental dynamis...

OF THE DISSERTATION A Multiobjective Approach for Addressing Dynamism and Heterogeneity in Parallel Scientific Simulations by SUMIR CHANDRA Dissertation Director: Professor Manish Parashar Scientific simulations offer the potential for accurate solutions of realistic models of complex physical phenomena. These simulations are based on systems of partial differential equations and are playing an...

Effective workflow scheduling is a key but challenging issue in heterogeneous environments due to the heterogeneity and dynamism. Based on the observations that not all tasks can run on all resources and acquired data transferring and queuing for a resource can be concurrent, we propose a dynamic resource-critical workflow scheduling algorithm which take into consideration the environmental het...

the critique of architecture has always followed architects and those involved in this field and is in fact quite indispensable from it. therefore before going around asking why it is so, it seems appropriate to ask ourselves the how. conceding to the fact that the ultimate goal in the critique of architecture is to discover a specific style with which to think about architecture, the main ques...

Secure multicast communication is a significant requirement in emerging applications in adhoc environments like military or public emergency network applications. Membership dynamism is a major challenge in providing complete security in such networks. This paper proposes a efficient Group Based Multicast Hierarchy (GBMH) algorithm for secret multicast communication, in which source nodes used ...
