in the face of limited water resources, better utilization and operation of irrigation networks is essential. use of control systems is considered as one of the most assured ways to achieve the aim. in the course of the present study, two centralized controllers are applied to the west canal of aghili irrigation district in i. r. iran. the proposed control algorithms consist of a distant downst...

the proliferation of information and communications technology (ict) along with the incremental growth in the use of cloud services, enterprise network and data center technologies in recent years, have caused unprecedented expansion of computer networks. however, the existing network architecture was not well designed to meet the requirements of today's needs. one of the most important pr...

This paper aims to design an optimal distributed multi-agent controller for load frequency control and optimal power flow purposes. The controller parameters are optimized using Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) algorithm. The designed optimal distributed controller is employed for load frequency control in the IEEE 30-bus test system with six generators. The controller of each generator is consider...

The beneets of using caches for reducing traac in backbone trunk links and for improving web access times are well-known. However, there are some known problems with traditional web caching, namely, maintaining freshness of web objects, balancing load among a number of caches and providing protection against cache failure. This paper investigates in detail the advantages and disadvantages of a ...
