In this paper, for topology optimization of double layer grids, an efficient optimization method is presented by combination of Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA) and Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA) which is called ICA-GSA method. The present hybrid method is based on ICA but the moving of countries toward their relevant imperialist is done using the la...

This paper introduces a novel two transistors forward topology employing a z-source to achieve ZVZCS and power transformer resetting for various applications. Comparing with the forward converter, this topology has the advantage of displaying ZCS condition with an added Z-Source and no additional switches when the switches turn on, and that ZVS condition happens when the switches turn off. Duty...

A new symmetrical topology switching power amplifier is introduced for professional audio use. The amplifier is composed by a pair of semi soft switched half-bridges with independent feedback control. Whole overall layout looks very similar than an already bridge configured stereo amplifier with few exceptions. Although the complexity of the proposed topology is at least twice of the convention...

This paper proposes a Resilient Overlay for Mission Critical Applications (ROMCA); a novel operator-independent overlay architecture providing a resilient and reliable service across wide-area networks. Resilience is achieved by combining centralized topology construction control and distributed dynamic mapping of paths onto the overlay topology according to network conditions. ROMCA can mitiga...

In protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks certain topological properties appear to be recurrent: network maps are considered scale-free. It is possible that this topology is reflected in the protein structure. In this paper, we investigate the role of protein disorder in the network topology. We find that the disorder of a protein (or of its neighbors) is independent of its number of PPIs. ...

we consider the transitive linear maps on the operator algebra $b(x)$for a separable banach space $x$. we show if a bounded linear map is norm transitive on $b(x)$,then it must be hypercyclic with strong operator topology. also we provide a sot-transitivelinear map without being hypercyclic in the strong operator topology.

Suppose F is a field with a nontrivial valuation v and valuation ring Ov, E is a finite field extension and w is a quasi-valuation on E extending v. We study the topology induced by w. We prove that the quasi-valuation ring determines the topology, independent of the choice of its quasi-valuation. Moreover, we prove the weak approximation theorem for quasi-valuations.

Topology construction and topology maintenance are significant sub-problems of topology control. Spanning tree based algorithms for topology control are basically transmission range based type construction algorithms. The construction of an effective backbone, however, is indirectly related to the placement of nodes. Also, the dependence of network reliability on the communication path undertak...

the lack of a structured anticipating about high usage product of the national petrochemical company, has forced this company to buy forecasted price from foreign countries. prevent the outflow of foreign exchange and tolerance of political factors such as sanctions in this field requires a forecast of prices in our country. due to the chain-like nature of the petrochemical products, and the ab...
