This research has been conducted mainly to examine the role of social networks in promoting urban culture in Karaj citizens in 2018. The research intends to investigate the role of attendance in social networks and the type of using it to promote urban culture and social networks' role in the legalism, responsibility, participation, and universality that are the components of urban culture. Thi...

in this paper, the application of neural networks for simulation and optimization of the cogeneration systems has been presented. cgam problem, a benchmark in cogeneration systems, is chosen as a casestudy. thermodynamic model includes precise modeling of the whole plant. for simulation of the steadysate behavior, the static neural network is applied. then using dynamic neural network, plant is...

a methodology is presented in this paper to find optimal location and dosage of chlorine injection in water distribution networks. the objective is to minimize the chlorine consumption while keeping the residual chlorine at each node within the standard range. unfortunately because of wrong water quality management in water distribution networks in many parts of the world, many problems such as...

cooperation is the foundation of many protocols in wireless networks. without cooperation, the performance of a network significantly decreases. hence, all nodes in traditional networks are required to cooperate with each other. in this paper, instead of traditional networks, a network of rational and autonomous nodes is considered, which means that each node itself can decide whether to cooper...

artificial neural networks are used in many smart apparatus and different fields such as signal processing pattern diagnoses, military systems, medicine, financial systems, and artificial intelligence. in this article using quality of neural networks in optimizing energy cost in moving limb and its effectiveness in organization a cognitive function founded by presenting an algorithm for use in ...

abstract infiltration process is one of the most important components of the hydrological cycle. on the other hand, the direct measurement of infiltration process is laborious, time consuming and expensive. in this study, the possibility of predicting cumulative infiltration in specific time intervals, using readily available soil data and artificial neural networks (anns) was investigated. for...

ad hoc mobile networks have dynamic topology with no central management. because of the high mobility of nodes, the network topology may change constantly, so creating a routing with high reliability is one of the major challenges of these networks .in the proposed framework first, by finding directions to the destination and calculating the value of the rout the combination of this value with ...

multicast routing is one of the most important services in multi radio multi channel (mrmc) wireless mesh networks (wmn). multicast routing performance in wmns could be improved by choosing the best routes and the routes that have minimum interference to reach multicast receivers. in this paper we want to address the multicast routing problem for a given channel assignment in wmns. the channels...

sybil attacks pose a serious threat for wireless sensor networks (wsn) security. they can create problems in routing, voting schemes, decision making, distributed storage and sensor re-programming. in a sybil attack,the attacker masquerades as multiple sensor identities, that are actually controlled by one or a few existing attacker nodes. sybil identities are fabricated out of stolen keys, obt...
