These days, data mining one of the most significant issues. One field data mining is a mixture of computer science and statistics which is considerably limited due to increase in digital data and growth of computational power of computer. One of the domains of data mining is the software cost estimation category. In this article, classifying techniques of learning algorithm of machine ...

delay in irrigated wheat primary tillage operations causes yield reduction and hidden timeliness cost in fars province. mechanization of primary tillage operations for irrigated wheat in fars province was simulated using system dynamics approach. a part of the model structure was related to the agricultural operations timeliness costs. for the mentioned simulation, causal relations between syst...

objectives: the present study aimed to provide an estimation of the current financial burden of renal transplantation therapy for insurance organisations.methods: an excel-based model was developed to determine the treatment costs of current clinical practice in renal transplantation therapy (rtt). inputs were derived from ministry of health and insurance organizations` database, hospital and p...

Distillation columns are complex processes for modeling and controlling. These columns are significant parts of most chemical industries for separation of components. Control of this process is essential for achieving certain purity for products with a minimum cost. However, nonlinearities, multivariable interaction, non-stationary behavior and severity of disturbances inside the column made th...

Several studies on photovoltaic systems focused on how it operates and energy required in operating it. Little attention is paid on its configurations, modeling of mean time to system failure, availability, cost benefit and comparisons of parallel and series–parallel designs. In this research work, four system configurations were studied. Configuration I consists of two sub-components arranged ...

This paper studies the effects of the structural variables of the Iranian industries sector on the welfare cost using to the Structure-Conduct-Performance (SCP) theory. In other words, we investigate the role of structural components and their effects on the size of the welfare cost in Iran's industry sector. We have used the Leibenstein's model to calculate the deadweight loss and then the pan...

This paper reveals the non-technical elements that affect construction project costs, known as soft cost (SCEs). These elusive have received little attention although they are significant in influencing management decisions of a project. There is much interest mitigation for green projects, but focus generally leaning towards hard aspects. Information about SCEs remains obscure. Qualitative app...
