This paper used some Muti-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) techniques to select the best alternative renewable energy sources in Msallata city, south east of Tripoli, Libya. They were based on commitment from ministry Energy Libyan government lower their carbon footprint. The considered here are solar, wind, and biomass. MCDA is widely solve various decision problems through evaluation. method...

Pregnancy Induced Hypertension is a pattern of high blood pressure during pregnancy. It one the major causes maternal mortality and neonatal morbidity in world, contributing about 5-14% pregnant women globally (Arshad et al., 2014). In Zimbabwe, despite availability guidelines for PIH management, still contribute 19.4% (Muti 2015) more than global statistics. For this reason, study sought to as...

Tensor type data are becoming important recently in various application fields (for example see Miwakeichi et al. [MI], Vasilescu and Terzopoulos [VT] and Muti and Bourennane [MB]). The factorization of a tensor to a sum of rank 1 tensors means that the data is expressed by a sum of data with most simpler structure, and we may have better understanding of data. This is an essential attitude for...

We propose herein a novel microfluidic approach for the simultaneous active pumping and mixing of analytes in straight microchannel via AC field-effect control induced-charge electro-osmosis (ICEO) around metal–dielectric solid Janus cylinders inherent inhomogeneous electrical polarizability immersed an electrolyte solution. coin term “Janus flow transistor (Janus AC-FFET)” to describe this int...

Land cover change (LCC) is increasingly affecting global climate change, energy cycle, carbon and water with far-reaching consequences to human well-being. Web service-based online detection applications have bloomed over the past decade for monitoring land change. Currently, massive processing services data been published used internet. However, few studies consider both service integration re...

This paper presents the results that we have been achieving with our research involving educational environments based on Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) architecture using a MAS (Multi-Agent System approach. A general guideline was idealized to be use as a reference for our research group to design and to implement intelligent educational software. Specially, interactive educational softwar...

OBJECTIVES To establish a taxol-resistant cell line of human ovarian carcinoma (A2780/Taxol) and investigate its biological features. METHODS The drug-resistant cell line (A2780/Taxol) was established by continuous stepwise selection with increasing concentrations of Taxol. Cell morphology was assessed by microscopy and growth curves were generated with in vitro and in vivo tumor xenograft mo...

Unit Commitment is large scale short-term optimization problem, in which main objective is to schedule generation to minimize the total fuel cost, subjected to large number of constraints that must be satisfied. In this paper unit commitment problem is solved by using a new evolutionary algorithm known as imperialistic algorithm. In ICA the initial populations individuals (countries) are the co...
