Introduction . Keywords, reflecting the main content of article, play an extremely important role in search for scientific papers databases. Together with title and abstract, keywords provide primary information about study. Selecting extracting effective is a time-consuming process, so its optimization requires further studying. Purpose. The article aimed at acquainting authors journal methods...

non-fragile observer design is the main problem of this paper. using continuous frequency distribution, the stability conditions based on integer order lyapunov theorem are derived for lipschitz class of nonlinear fractional order systems. the proposed observer is stable beside the existence of both gain perturbation and input disturbance. for the first time, in this paper a systematic method i...

Discrete event simulations are a powerful technique for modeling stochastic systems with multiple components where interactions between these components are governed by the probability distribution functions associated with them. Complex discrete event simulations are often computationally intensive with long completion times. This paper describes our solution to the problem of orchestrating th...

This paper proposes a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based technique for the optimal allocation of Distributed Generation (DG) units in the power systems. In this paper our aim is to decide optimal number, type, size and location of DG units for voltage profile improvement and power loss reduction in distribution network. Two types of DGs are considered and the distribution load flow is used...

Many cities in the Global South are structurally different from Northern, particularly American, on which much of urban sociology’s conceptual apparatus has been based. Thus, depicting them terms a standard vocabulary risks imposing an inappropriate way seeing. We need that is able to accommodate their experience. This special issue contributes work building vocabulary. select five keywords soc...

In recent decades, probabilistic constrained optimal control problems have attracted much attention in many research fields. Although probabilistic constraints are generally intractable in an optimization problem, several tractable methods haven been proposed to handle probabilistic constraints. In most methods, probabilistic constraints are reduced to deterministic constraints that are tractab...
