background : cardiac arrest is a condition in which the heart is completely stopped and is not pumping any blood. although most cardiac arrest cases are reported from homes or hospitals, about 20% occur in public areas. therefore, these areas need to be investigated in terms of cardiac arrest incidence so that places of high incidence can be identi-fied and cardiac rehabilitation defibrillators...

Linear convolution of particular criteria is often used as aggregated criterion in problems of multicriteria optimization. The weights of significance of partial criteria can be obtained on the basis of their ranking by experts. Mistake in expert judgments may lead to inaccuracy in determining the weights and (as a consequence) to the inaccuracy in the solution of the problem of multicriteria o...

this paper focuses upon the development of an efficient method for conceptual design optimization of a satellite. there are many option for a satellite subsystems that could be choice, as acceptable solution to implement of a space system mission. every option should be assessment based on the different criteria such as cost, mass, reliability and technology contraint (complexity). in this rese...

Many problems in multi-agent systems can be represented as a Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) where the goal is to find the best assignment to variables in order to minimize the cost. More complex problems including several criteria can be represented as a Multi-Objective Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (MODCOP) where the goal is to optimize several criteria at the...

We take a single-level quantum dot embedded between two metallic leads at different temperatures and chemical potentials which works as a heat engine. Two optimization criteria were used and their corresponding optimized efficiencies, powers, and periods evaluated. A comparison between similar quantities of the two optimization criteria reveals mixed advantages and disadvantages. We quantify th...
