Logistics Network Design includes network configuration decisions having long-standing influences on other tactical and operational decisions. Recently, regarding environmental issues and customer awareness and global warming closed-loop supply chain network design is taken into consideration. The proposed network for the integrated forward and reverse logistics is developed by formulating a cy...

honeypot is a security device the value of which lies mainly in discovering and inspecting, being attacked and being at risk. most of the present honeypots are configured and installed on the network statically. in some cases considerations have been made on dynamic configuration of honeypots at the time of installation but still no study have been carried out on how to instantaneously change t...

estimating the final price of products is of great importance. for manufacturing companies proposing a final price is only possible after the design process over. these companies propose an approximate initial price of the required products to the customers for which some of time and money is required. here using the existing data of already designed transformers and utilizing the bayesian anal...

glaucoma, a group of multifactor ocular diseases, is the second leading cause of blindness worldwide. primary open angle (poa) is the most common type of glaucoma, characterized by progressive optic nerve degeneration. numerous genes and proteins have been revealed to be associated with poag, but the pathologic mechanisms of the disease are still poorly understood. proteomics, the collective st...

geological facies interpretation is essential for reservoir studying. the method of classification and identification seismic traces is a powerful approach for geological facies classification and distinction. use of neural networks as classifiers is increasing in different sciences like seismic. they are computer efficient and ideal for patterns identification. they can simply learn new algori...

network effects, increase in the value of consuming a product if many other consumers use the same product, is a feature of many markets of high-technology products. frequently cited examples of products exhibiting network effects are telecommunication or software products. this research explores the role of network effects in the consumer´s choice of mobile operator in tehran. for our empirica...

simultaneous routing and resource allocation has been considered in wireless networks for its performance improvement. in this paper we propose a cross-layer optimization framework for worst-case queue length minimization in some type of fdma based wireless networks, in which the the data routing and the power allocation problem are jointly optimized with fuzzy distributed h∞ control strategy ....

ground vibrations caused by blasting are undesirable results in the mining industry and can cause serious damage to the nearby buildings and facilities; therefore, controlling such vibrations has an important role in reducing the environmental damaging effects. controlling vibration caused by blasting can be achieved once peak particle velocity (ppv) is predicted. in this paper, the values of p...
