In this first study, the rectangular reinforced concrete beam’s costs and cross-section sizes are found by using Harmony Search (HS), Differential Evolution Algorithm (DE), Jaya Algorithm, Teaching- Learning Based (TLBO), Hybrid algorithm (Jaya-TLBO) Flower Pollination (FPA) separately ACI 318 building code. addition, in order to better see how successful algorithms are, standard deviation of u...

introduction: in traditional medical education systems much interest is placed on the cramming of basic and clinical facts without considering their applicability in the future professional career. the aim of this study is to evaluate a novice medical training method (problem-based learning) as compared to the contemporary teacher-based medical education or traditional methods. methods: selecti...

Rapid industrial development and innovations in technology bring about the menace of congestion deregulated power systems (DPS). The transmission lines are continuously working under a stressed condition with reduced transfer capacity. In this situation, losses voltage deviations at load buses increased hence reduce system stability. To mitigate congestion, improving available capability (ATC) ...

This paper presents the Water Wave Optimization Algorithm (WWOA) for solving multi-area economic dispatch (MAED) problem with tie line constraints considering transmission losses, area demand constraints, multiple fuels options, valve-point loading effects and prohibited operating zones. Here, the amount of power that can be economically generated in one or more areas are exchanged with other a...

Several problems in the domains of project management (PM) and operations research (OP) can be classified as optimization which are classically NP-Hard. One such highly important problem is resource constrained scheduling (RCPSP). The main aim this to find a schedule lowest optimum makespan complete project, involves well precedence constraints. But, being NP-Hard, RCPSP requires exponential co...

A smart energy management controller can improve efficiency, save costs, and reduce carbon emissions consumption while accurately catering to consumer habits. Having integrated various renewable systems (RESs) a battery storage system (BSS), we proposed an optimization-based demand-side (DSM) scheduler (SEMC) for home. The suggested SEMC creates DSM-based operational plan regarding user-centere...

A comparative study is performed to design an optimal PID controller for automatic voltage regulator system using different optimization techniques. The presented approaches are referred as particle swarm (PSO) algorithm, cuckoo search (CSO) moth flame (MFO) water cycle (WCO) teaching–learning-based (TLBO) and hill climbing (HCO) algorithm. Transient response parameters, which rise time Tr, set...

Abstract As we enter the new age of Internet Things (IoT) and wearable gadgets, sensors, embedded devices are extensively used for data aggregation its transmission. The extent processed by IoT networks makes it vulnerable to outside attacks. Therefore, is important design an intrusion detection system (IDS) that ensures security, integrity, confidentiality their data. State-of-the-art IDSs hav...

Abstract In the cloud manufacturing process, service composition can combine a single into complex to meet task requirements. An efficient strategy is crucial, as it affects efficiency of resource and capacity sharing in system. However, face large-scale environment, existing methods have problems slow convergence instability. To solve above, we propose an improved optimization method, named im...
