Bacillus clausii TnrA transcription factor is required for global nitrogen regulation. In order to obtain anoverview of gene regulation by TnrA in B. clausii KSMK16, the entire genome of B. clausii was screened forthe consensus sequence, 5’-TGTNAN7TNACA-3’ known as the TnrA box, and 13 transcription units werefound containing a putative TnrA box. The TnrA targets identified in...

ISSN 2277 – 5064 | © 2012 Bonfring Abstract--The dispatch of electric load is one of the key functions in electrical power system operation, management and planning. The key intention of economic load dispatch is to reduce the total production cost of the generating system and at the same time the necessary equality and inequality constraints should also be fulfilled. In the present time, energ...

Plasma etching processes have a potentially large number of sensor variables to be utilized, and the number of the sensor variables is growing due to advances in real-time sensors. In addition, the sensor variables from plasma sensors require additional knowledge about plasmas, which becomes a big burden for engineers to utilize them in this filed. Thus an effective procedure for sensor variabl...

In this study, a bi-objective multi-state redundancy allocation problem of series-parallel systems consisting of some serial subsystems, each with non-repairable components in parallel, is investigated. Furthermore, due to uncertainty involved, both the performance rates and the availabilities of components are considered fuzzy. In addition, two strategies of all-unit and incremental-quantity d...

Bi-objective optimization of a multi-product multi-period three-echelon supply-chain-network problem is aimed in this paper. The network consists of manufacturing plants, distribution centers (DCs), and customer nodes. To bring the problem closer to reality, the majority of the parameters in this network including fixed and variable costs, customer demand, available production time, set-up and ...

The increase in the number of documents has aggravated the difficulty of classifying those documents according to specific needs. Clustering analysis in a distributed environment is a thrust area in artificial intelligence and data mining. Its fundamental task is to utilize characters to compute the degree of related corresponding relationship between objects and to accomplish automatic classif...

This paper proposes a bi-objective model for the facility location problem under a congestion system. The idea of the model is motivated by applications of locating servers in bank automated teller machines (ATMS), communication networks, and so on. This model can be specifically considered for situations in which fixed service facilities are congested by stochastic demand within queueing frame...

This paper presents a bi-objective vendor managed inventory (BOVMI) model for a supply chain problem with a single vendor and multiple retailers, in which the demand is fuzzy and the vendor manages the retailers’ inventory in a central warehouse. The vendor confronts two constraints: number of orders and available budget. In this model, the fuzzy demand is formulated using trapezoidal fuzzy num...

in today's competitive markets, with orientation companies towards customer satisfaction, customer relationship management (crm) is more complicated. the main question is how to identify profitable and key customers of company. companies can segmenting their customers into different groups based on the specific criteria by identify and analyzing the characteristics of their behavior. these...
