abstract forecasting electrical energy demand and consumption is one of the important decision-making tools in distributing companies for making contracts scheduling and purchasing electrical energy. this paper studies load consumption modeling in hamedan city province distribution network by applying esn neural network. weather forecasting data such as minimum day temperature, average day temp...

among structured peer-to-peer systems, chord has a general popularity due to its salient features like simplicity, high scalability, small path length with respect to network size, and flexibility on node join and departure. however, chord doesn’t take into account the topology of underlying physical network when a new node is being added to the system, thus resulting in high routing latency an...

tthe uncertainty estimation and compensation are challenging problems for the robust control of robot manipulators which are complex systems. this paper presents a novel decentralized model-free robust controller for electrically driven robot manipulators. as a novelty, the proposed controller employs a simple gaussian radial-basis-function network as an uncertainty estimator. the proposed netw...

this study is devoted to the formulation of the network design problem of one-way streets and the application of simulated annealing (sa) algorithm to solve this problem for a large real network. it discusses some points of views on one-way street networks, the objective function used for design, the way in which design constraints may be considered, and the traffic problems concerning one-way ...

in recent years, the existing competitions between investment companies have been increased largely by entering private investors in capital market. large and powerful companies try to achieve the goals predicted to increase the competition capacity. to analyze the efficiency of investment companies, parametric and non-parametric methods are used. in this research, based on the dissociation pow...

reducing the number of colors in an image while preserving its quality, is of importance in many applications such as image analysis and compression. it also decreases memory and transmission bandwidth requirements. moreover, classification of image colors is applicable in image segmentation and object detection and separation, as well as producing pseudo-color images. in this paper, the kohene...

one of the main challenges in wireless sensor network is energy problem and life cycle of nodes in networks. several methods can be used for increasing life cycle of nodes. one of these methods is load balancing in nodes while transmitting data from source to destination. directed diffusion algorithm is one of declared methods in wireless sensor networks which is data-oriented algorithm. direct...

ieee 802.11e standard is proposed to support quality of service (qos) in wireless local area networks (wlans). the distributed access method of 802.11e, enhanced distributed channel access (edca), prioritizes traffic generated by delay-sensitive applications by increasing probability to access medium for this type of traffic. edca resets the contention window (cw) of mobile stations to a minimu...

administrative regulations for water flow decrease distribution efficiency and effect the economical operation of irrigation networks. complications in distribution systems and the decrease in availability of water require study of the hydraulic performance of existing flow control structures. control systems designed by neyrpic (zayandeh rud network) and usbr (doroodzan network) were investiga...

in this paper, we study wsn design, as a multi-objective optimization problem using ga technique. we study the effects of ga parameters including population size, selection and crossover method and mutation probability on the design. choosing suitable parameters is a trade-off between different network criteria and characteristics. type of deployment, effect of network size, radio communication...
