A mini review of recent progress in the removal of emerging contaminants from pharmaceutical waste using various adsorbents
( Springer , 2022 , Article)The presence of emerging contaminants (ECs) originating from pharmaceutical waste in water, wastewater, and marine ecosystems at various geographical locations has been clearly publicised. This review paper presents an ... -
Minimising number of sensors in wireless sensor networks for structure health monitoring systems
( Institution of Engineering and Technology , 2019 , Article)Sensor placement optimisation is an important problem in the field of structural health monitoring (SHM). Many researchers solve this problem by focusing only on the network requirements, without considering the civil ... -
Minimizing the total completion time in a two-machine flowshop problem with time delays
( Taylor and Francis Ltd. , 2016 , Article)This article proposes to solve the problem of minimizing the total completion time in a two-machine permutation flowshop environment in which time delays between the machines are considered. For this purpose, an enumeration ... -
Minimum transmission power loss in multi-terminal HVDC systems: A general methodology for radial and mesh networks
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)The significant increase of high-power renewable energy sources (e.g., off-shore wind energy systems) in the power networks, has introduced Multi-Terminal High-Voltage DC (MTDC) grids as a prominent approach for transmitting ... -
MINTED: Multicast virtual network embedding in cloud data centers with delay constraints
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2015 , Article)Network virtualization is regarded as the pillar of cloud computing, enabling the multi-tenancy concept where multiple Virtual Networks (VNs) can cohabit the same substrate network.

MIP models for minimizing total tardiness in a two-machine flow shop
( Palgrave Macmillan Ltd. , 2013 , Article)We propose compact mixed-integer programming models for the NP-hard problem of minimizing tardiness in a two-machine flow shop. Also, we propose valid inequalities that aim at tightening the models' representations. We ... -
Mission independent fault-tolerant control of heterogeneous linear multiagent systems based on adaptive virtual actuator
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2021 , Article)In this article, a fault-tolerant control (FTC) scheme for linear multiagent systems (MASs) subject to time-varying loss of effectiveness and time-varying additive actuator faults as well as external disturbance is ... -
Mitigating error propagation in two-way relay channels with network coding
( IEEE , 2010 , Article)In relay networks, error propagation at the relay nodes degrades the performance of the system. To combat that effect, it has been suggested to implement a reliability threshold at the relay to control error propagation. ... -
Mitigation and resiliency of multi-agent systems subject to malicious cyber attacks on communication links
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2020 , Conference Paper)This paper aims at investigating a novel type of cyber attack that is injected to multi-agent systems (MAS) having an underlying directed graph.
