throughout the history, earthquakes led to not only the destruction of many homes and damage to a lot of people, but also homeless of people and in need of medical aid. one of the key issues which have always great importance during the disaster is supply the needed blood of blood units' applicant people. therefore, in this paper with the design of blood supply chain at the time of earthquake d...

By increasing the use of distributed generation (DG) in the distribution network operation, an entity called virtual power plant (VPP) has been introduced to control, dispatch and aggregate the generation of DGs, enabling them to participate either in the electricity market or the distribution network operation. The participation of VPPs in the electricity market has made challenges to fairly a...

Indonesian Navy (TNI AL) is the main component for Maritime Security and Defence. Because of that, TNI AL needs Indonesian Warship (KRI) to covered Maritime area. The main requirement from KRI is fulfilled by demand. To pock of fuel demand from KRI at Naval Base, it needs a new pipeline of fuel distribution network system. The pipeline network system used for maximum lifetime must be protected ...

Internet evolves and operates largely without a central coordination, the lack of which was and is critically important to the rapid growth and evolution of Internet. However, the lack of management in turn makes it very difficult to guarantee proper performance and to deal systematically with performance problems. Meanwhile, the available network bandwidth and server capacity continue to be ov...

The goal of the Globe project is to design and build a middleware platform that facilitates the development of large-scale distributed applications, such as those found on the Internet. To demonstrate the feasibility of our design and to test our ideas, we are currently building a new Internet application: The Globe Distribution Network. The Globe Distribution Network, or GDN, is an application...

new blood forming vessels are produced by differentiation of mesodermal precursor cells to angioblasts that become endothelial cells (ecs) which in turn give rise to primitive capillary network. human cord blood (hcb) contains large subsets of mononuclear cells (mncs) that can be differentiated into endothelial-like cells in vitro. human mononuclear progenitor cells were purified from fresh umb...

The availability of sufficient and economic online capacity to support the network while encountering disturbances and failures leading to supply and demand imbalance has a crucial role in today distribution networks with high share of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs), especially Renewable Energy Resources (RESs). This paper proposes a two-stage decision making framework for the Distribution...
