We study a flexible and adaptive approach for optimizing resource utilization in a mobile communication system that includes compression and transmission of multiple independent video streams. We focus on how the independent streams can be balanced using distributed control. We present a simple theoretical model and consider its optimization. From the model we extract analytical results about d...

Experimental designs were applied for optimizing media and process parameters for hydrogen production from maize stalk hydrolyzate by a newly isolated facultative strain.Plackett-Burman design was used to identify the significant components and using this method the media components - glucose, yeast extract, malt extract, peptone, and NaCl were identified as signi...

The present work was aimed at optimizing a culture medium for biomass production and phenolic compounds by using Ganoderma lucidum. The culture was optimized in two stages; a Plackett-Burman design was used in the first one for identifying key components in the medium and a central composite design was used in the second one for optimizing their concentration. Both responses (biomass and phenol...

This paper has the following contributions in iris recognition compass: first, novel parameters selection for Gabor filters to extract the iris features. Second, due to iris textures randomness and assigning the Gabor parameters by pre-knowledgeable values, traditionally, a large Gabor filter bank has been used to prevent losing the discriminative informat ion. It leads to perform extracting an...

The aim of this study was to enhance the production of vitamin K2 by using N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitroso-guanidine (NTG) and low energy ion beam implantation and optimizing the fermentation medium. Mutation resulted in 1.66fold higher production of vitamin K2 than that of the parentl strain. The production by the mutant BN-P15-11-1 was increased 55% and reached 3.593±0.107 mg/L by using the Placke...

We detail an algorithm implemented in the R-Stream compiler to perform controlled array expansion and conversion to partial single-assignment form, which consists of (1) allowing our automatic code optimizer to selectively ignore false dependences in order to extract a good tradeoff between locality and parallelism, (2) detecting exactly all the causes of semantics violations in the relaxed sch...

iran’s vast common natural gas resources and the necessity to extract and export it as liquefied natural gas (lng) to distances more than 3000km opens a lucrative field for researchers to optimize lng cycles. in this article heat integration in cryogenic cycles by determining interacycle partition temperature and optimizing refrigeration features like subcooler, presaturator, aftercooler, reboi...
