dam reservoirs supplies water resources for drinking, agriculture, and industry almost in all parts of iran. lack of proper utilization rules and unbalanced demands versus available water has led to many problems regarding to ineffective use of the water resources. precipitation and flow rate are stochastic phenomena. therefore, multi-step processes related to the water use efficiency should be...

Structured parallel programming is one of the possible solutions to exploit Pro-grammability, Portability and Performance in the parallel programming world. Programming using high level parallel constructs permits the programmer to focus on the development of the parallel algorithms rather than on their low level implementation. The power of this approach stands in the possibility of modeling t...

The solution to the problem of optimal control of piecewise affine systems with a bounded disturbance is characterised. Results that allow one to compute the value function, its domain (robustly controllable set) and the optimal control law are presented. The tools that are employed include dynamic programming, polytopic set algebra and parametric programming. When the cost is time (robust time...

Previous applications of genetic programming ~GP! have been restricted to searching for algebraic approximations mapping the design parameters ~e.g., geometrical parameters! to a single design objective ~e.g., weight!. In addition, these algebraic expressions tend to be highly complex. By adding a simple extension to the GP technique, a powerful design data analysis tool is developed. This pape...

Despite the tremendous development in CNC programming facilities, linear and circular cuts parallel to the coordinate planes continue to be the standard motions of modern CNC machines. However, the increasing industrial demand for parts with intricate shapes cannot be satisfied with only these standard motions. The proportion of parts which are not covered by the standard CNC motions is certain...

Recently, the eminently popular standard quantile regression has been generalized to the multiple-output regression setup by means of directional regression quantiles in two rather interrelated ways. Unfortunately, they lead to complicated optimization problems involving parametric programming, and this may be the main obstacle standing in the way of their wide dissemination. The presented R pa...

In recent years we have been experiencing an ever-increasing number of Building Modeling (BIM) and Visual Programming Language (VPL) approaches in the architectural design field. These experiments inspired new research strictly focused on exploring values, criticalities, advantages applying these combined methodologies Cultural Heritage domain. This integrated approach has emphasized benefits d...
