the study was conducted to determine optimum dietary inclusion level of glyricidia leaf protein concentrate (glpc), for growing rabbits. thirty five weaned rabbits of mixed sexes were weighed and randomly allocated to five dietary treatments which contained 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20% glpc for diets 1 to 5, respectively in a completely randomized design. diet 1 served as the control diet.each treatmen...

In this paper, we interpret a fuzzy differential equation by using the strongly generalized differentiability concept. Utilizing the Generalized characterization Theorem. Then a novel hybrid method based on learning algorithm of fuzzy neural network for the solution of differential equation with fuzzy initial value is presented. Here neural network is considered as a part of large eld called ne...

Abstract: One of the equipment that can help improve distribution system status today and reduce the cost of fault time is remote control switches (RCS). Finding the optimal location and number of these switches in the distribution system can be modeled with various objective functions as a nonlinear optimization problem to improve system reliability and cost. In this article, a particle swarm ...

The Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) problems in power generation systems are to reduce the fuel cost by reducing the total cost for the generation of electric power. This paper presents an efficient Modified Firefly Algorithm (MFA), for solving ELD Problem. The main objective of the problems is to minimize the total fuel cost of the generating units having quadratic cost functions subjected to lim...

This paper investigates the issue of an economic manufacturing quantity model for defective products involving imperfect production processes and rework. We consider that the demand is sensitive to promotional efforts/sales teams’ initiatives as well as the setup cost can be reduced through further investment. It also assumes that fixed quantity multiple installments of the finished batch are d...

Many relational database systems use secondary indexes to reduce the access cost of retrieving data in response to a user’s query. However, a secondary index incurs an additional cost due to the update maintenance of the index. In some cases, this cost may be greater than the cost to update the desired tuples. This paper examines a deferred index update strategy which does an incremental update...
