A multi-objective genetic algorithm model for time-cost trade-off analysis of construction projects
(
Civil-Comp Press
, 2006 , Conference Paper)
Time-cost trade-off analysis is one of the most important aspects of construction project planning and control. There are trade-offs between time and cost to complete the activities of a project. Existing methods for ...
Modeling of the exhaust box assembly workshop using neural networks
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
The paper investigates the use of artificial neural networks in modeling and control of manufacturing systems. This approach models the various elements of a manufacturing system by the form of neural networks. The modeling ...
The Impact of North Field natural gas produvtion on Mesaieed city's industries in the State of Qatar
(
Royal Geographical Society
, 2009 , Conference Paper)
Mesaieed is the first industrial city in the state of Qatar, established in early 1970s. The strategy was to adapt large scale industries, especially the petroleum in order to achieve the diversity of the national economy. ...
Comparison of relaying strategies for cooperative diversity systems with adaptive modulation
(
IEEE
, 2009 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we propose several relay selection schemes for cooperative diversity systems with adaptive transmission. The proposed schemes are based on dual-hop relaying with multiple relays. We analyze the performance ...
A Framework for Predicting Proteins 3D Structures
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
This paper proposes a framework for predicting protein three dimensional structures from their primary sequences. The proposed method utilizes the natural multi-label and hierarchical intrinsic nature of proteins to build ...
Specifying Security Goals of Component Based Systems: An End-User Perspective
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
This paper treats security from a software engineering point of view. Security issues of software components are usually handled at the two levels of development abstractions: by the security experts during the component ...
Toward An Intelligent Informative System to Determine Locations Paths in Doha City
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
Tourists and new comers arriving to Doha city, the capital of Qatar, need always to know about specific locations (i.e., tourist sites, hotels, schools, universities, shopping centers, hospitals, health centres, mosques, ...
Voltage stability evaluation of real power transmission system using singular value decomposition technique
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
Voltage stability is an important factor that needs to be taken into consideration during the planning and operation of power systems in order to avoid voltage collapse and subsequently partial or full system blackout. ...
Intelligent Virtual Archiving for Accessing News Article Repositories
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
This paper proposes a news article archiving solution that addresses many of today's systems limitations for effective storage and management of unstructured data items. The proposed system employs formal concept analysis ...
Writer identification using edge-based directional probability distribution features for Arabic words
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
A system for writer identification based on Arabic handwritten words was built. First a database of words was gathered and used as a test base. Then, features vectors were extracted from writers' word images. Prior to ...
