introduction: one of the types of hospital management information systems is decision support information system (dsis). this system uses decision-making models and databases for preparing specific information to support their semi-structured or unstructured decisions. the present study aimed to design a decision dsis model for board of trustees of ayatollah kashani hospital, shahrekord, iran. ...

During the past few years, modeling in agriculture has attracted considerable attention. New modeling methods including neural networks are employed in various industries, and it is necessary that their use in agriculture be also considered. This research addressed the trend of energy use in broiler farms in Alborz Province and sought to model the trend of energy consumption and production in t...

Untapped pine needles with high potential for energy generation in the hilly area are not only a waste of resource but also increase the chance of environmental hazards as forest fires and GHG emission. This study is conducted to propose a new hybrid system (PV/Wind/Biomass) using abundant pine needle resource as a replacement of existing roof-mounted PV/wind hybrid system and analyse the feasi...

in recent years, the issue of energy consumption modeling techniques in the building sector has been widely considered by researchers and managers. researches indicate that energy consumption in residential sector is one of the main parts of the total consumption. moreover, the urban residence is supposed as a significant consumer of energy in every country and therefore a focus for energy cons...

Reconfigurable architectures such as FPGAs are flexible alternatives to DSPs or ASICs used in mobile devices for which energy is a key performance metric. Reconfigurable architectures offer several parameters such as operating frequency, precision, amount of memory, number of computation units, etc. These parameters define a large design space that must be explored to find energy efficient solu...

The biggest challenges faced in big cities are greenhouse gas emission and growing energy needs. Efficient utilization of existing infrastructures has a prominent role in response to the challenges. Energy hub approach embraces performance of different energy networks. Energy hub is defined as a super node in electrical system receiving distinctive energy carriers such as gas and electricity in...

In the present study, the energetic and economic modeling of lentil and chickpea production in Esfahan province of Iran was conducted using adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and linear regression. Data were taken by interviewing and visiting of 140 lentil farms and 110 chickpea farms during 2014-2015 production period. The results showed that the yield and total energy consumpti...

It is hypothesized that interplay of earthquake, soil, foundation and structure (SFS) dynamic characteristic, and their interaction in time domain, control the behavior of SFS system during earthquakes. Moreover, (passive and active) control of spatial and temporal location of seismic energy dissipation (preferably in soil) can improve safety and economy of SFS systems. Such energy dissipation ...
