background & objectives: cancer is a serious problem for human being and is becoming a serious problem day-by-day .a prerequisite for any therapeutic modality is early diagnosis. automated cancer diagnosis by automatic image feature extraction procedures can be used as a feature extraction in the field of fractal dimension. the aim of this survey was to introduce a quantitative and objectiv...

operator's role in industrial control centers takes place in time, which is one of the most important determinants of whether an expected action is going to be successful or not. in certain situations, due to the complex nature of the work, the existing interfaces and already prepared procedures do not meet the dynamic requirements of operator's cognitive demands, making the control tasks unnec...

in this paper, the optimal design of a three phase surface mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor has been done by particle swarm optimization and bees algorithm. this machine has been designed for high speed applications, and an epoxy and glass fiber bandage is used for permanent magnet protection against centrifugal forces. the optimization has been done by new design equations to improve...

machine-part family formation is one of major applications of group technology (gt). the machine cell formation problem in cellular manufacturing system (cms) involves the decomposition of the manufacturing system into machine cells. part families are identified such that they are fully processed within a machine cell. the problem of cell design is a very complex task with wide ranging implicat...
