Using second-generation biomass and biofuel deal with environmental pollution and CO2 emissions. Therefore, this paper design an integrated multi-period bi-objective biofuel supply chain network using support vector machine (SVM) and economic analysis to reduce the cost of generating biofuels and CO2 emissions. The economic analysis consists of three scenarios for supplyin...

Electricity demand response refers to consumer actions that change the utility load profile in a way that reduces costs or improves grid security. Residential demand response (RDR) can be treated as an energy resource which can be assessed and commercially developed. RDR prospectors require more detailed information about usage patterns and penetration for specific electrical appliances during ...

Since the architecture of a software system constrains the non-functional requirements, the decisions taken during architectural design have a large impact in the resulting system. An architectural design method is presented that employs iterative evaluation and transformation of the software architecture in order to satisfy the nonfunctional requirements (NFRs). Architecture evaluation is perf...

Online communities enabled by mobile communication have needs for sharing experiences and common interests in a context sensitive manner. However, due to the current division of creation, delivery and access functionality of multimedia to applications, much user effort is needed to communicate efficiently. This paper presents an approach for a user interface for mobile terminals to present and ...
