Due to the resource constraint and dynamic parameters, reducing energy consumption became the most important issues of wireless sensor networks topology design. All proposed hierarchy methods cluster a WSN in different cluster layers in one step of evolutionary algorithm usage with complicated parameters which may lead to reducing efficiency and performance. In fact, in WSNs topology, increasin...

guiding vehicles to their destination under dynamic traffic conditions is an important topic in the field of intelligent transportation systems (its). nowadays, many complex systems can be controlled by using multi agent systems. adaptation with the current condition is an important feature of the agents. in this research, formulation of dynamic guidance for vehicles has been investigated based...

In the present paper, we apply the network simplex algorithm for solving the minimum cost flow problem, to the maximum flow problem. Then we prove that the cycling phenomenon which causes the infinite loop in the algorithm, does not occur in the network simplex algorithm associated with the maximum flow problem.

this paper presents a methodology for design of instrumentation sensor networks in non-linear chemical plants. the method utilizes a robust extended kalman filter approach to provide an efficient dynamic data reconciliation. a weighted objective function has been introduced to enable the designer to incorporate each individual process variable with its own operational importance. to enhance the...

For any agency dealing with the design of the water distribution network, an economic design will be an objective. In this research, Central Force Optimization (CFO) and Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm were used to optimize Ismail Abad water Distribution network. Optimization of the network has been evaluated by developing an optimization model based on CFO and DE algorithm in MATLAB and ...

In this paper, we suggest a new pivot rule for the primal simplex algorithm for the minimum cost flow problem, known as the network simplex algorithm. Due to degeneracy, cycling may occur in the network simplex algorithm. By maintaining strongly feasible bases due to Cunningham [1976, 1979], cycling can be prevented but without restrictions on the entering variable, the algorithm can still perf...
