In this paper we consider the appropriateness of education, compared to occupation and income, as a measure of social class for use in health-related studies in developing societies in transition. Three evaluation criteria were used, namely, the feasibility of constructing the measure, its sensitivity in reflecting relevant social class life conditions, and its ability to produce a family-level...

Solar photovoltaic system parameter identification is crucial for effective performance management, design, and modeling of solar panel systems. This work presents the Subtraction-Average-Based Algorithm (SABA), a unique, enhanced evolutionary approach solving optimization problems. The conventional SABA works by subtracting mean searching solutions from position those in population area search...
