Genetic algorithm-based multi-objective model for scheduling of linear construction projects
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2007 , Article)
This paper presents a genetic algorithm-based multi-objective optimization model for the scheduling of linear construction projects. The model allows construction planners to generate and evaluate optimal/near-optimal ...
An efficient technique for finding the eigenvalues of fourth-order Sturm–Liouville problems
(
Elsevier
, 2009 , Article)
In this paper, we will develop a numerical technique for finding the eigenvalues of fourth-order non-singular Sturm–Liouville problems. We used the variational iteration methods as a basis for this technique. Numerical ...
A Pyramidal Security Model for Large-Scale Group-Oriented Computing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks: The Key Management Study
(
IEEE
, 2009 , Article)
In mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), many applications require group-oriented computing among a large number of nodes in an adversarial environment. To deploy these large-scale cooperative applications, secure multicast ...
Neural-Networks-Based Feedback Linearization versus Model Predictive Control of Continuous Alcoholic Fermentation Process
(
WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
, 2005 , Article)
In this work advanced nonlinear neural networks based control system design algorithms are adopted to control a mechanistic model for an ethanol fermentation process. The process model equations for such systems are highly ...

Complex-impedance response of an Ag/TeO2-V2O5/Ag structure
(
Elsevier
, 2009 , Article)
The ac conductivity of glass samples of composition 50 mol% TeO2 and 50 mol% V2O5 has been analyzed. The samples were prepared by the usual melt-quench method. The electrical conductance and capacitance were measured over ...
Estimating design effort for the compressor design department: a case study at Pratt & Whitney Canada
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2009 , Article)
The effort required in a design project not only impacts the final cost, but also the project lead-time. This paper presents a case study carried out with the collaboration of Pratt & Whitney Canada, a global leader in the ...
Controlling Error Propagation in Network-Coded Cooperative Wireless Systems
(
IEEE
, 2009 , Article)
In cooperative communications, error propagation at relays degrades the diversity order of the system. To combat that effect, it has been suggested to implement a reliability threshold at the relay to control error ...
Water resources assessment at El-Arish area, using remote sensing and GIS, North Sinai, Egypt
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
This research aims at to analyse the pattern and rate of shoreline changes at the El-Arish area during the period 1984-2006, which represents the time at which the El-Arish harbour has affected along the coastline. Detecting ...
Semantic Map Based Web Search Result Visualization
(
IEEE
, 2007 , Conference Paper)
The problem of information overload has become more pressing with the emergence of the increasingly more popular Internet services. The main information retrieval mechanisms provided by the prevailing Internet Web software ...
