Control and evaluation are major secrets of an organization's survival.Universities, as research and educational organizations, need to be evaluated in order to survive. The results of educational activities encompass a vast spectrum including the graduates, researchers and planners, scientific publications, as well as satisfaction of students, parents, profossors and staff (Ramsden, 1996).Th...

PURPOSE We investigated whether acromegaly has been diagnosed earlier at the Niigata Medical and Dental University Hospital. METHODS Patients with acromegaly (n = 81) who underwent their first transsphenoidal surgery from 2006 to 2015 were reviewed. Two groups were compared: those who underwent surgery between 2006 and 2010 (n = 35) and those who underwent surgery between 2011 and 2015 (n = 4...

malaria has recently been resurged in some parts of iran which is bordered with armenia, naxcivan and turkey. an attempt was made to asses the current status of insecticide resistance in the main malaria vector , an.sacharovi. adult engorged mosquitoes were collected from dwellings during the seasonal activity of the vector, which is synchronized in summer 2001. mosquitoes were subjected to the...

In data mining, clustering is one of the important issues for separation and classification with groups like unsupervised data. In this paper, an attempt has been made to improve and optimize the application of clustering heuristic methods such as Genetic, PSO algorithm, Artificial bee colony algorithm, Harmony Search algorithm and Differential Evolution on the unlabeled data of an Iranian bank...

in this paper, an attempt has been made to introduce a new control strategy including plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (phev) and diesel engine generator to control the voltage and frequency of autonomous microgrids. the proposed control strategy has multiple advantages over the recent control methods in microgrids. the proposed method applies the primary and secondary frequency control strategy...

Final step of rail manufacturing is cold rolling straightening process and it hassignificant effects on mechanical properties, straightness, flatness and development of residualstresses. Measurement of residual stresses after straightening process is obligated by railmanufacturing standards. In the present investigation, an attempt has been made to evaluateresidual stresses after straightening ...
