This paper presents the design and implementation of the WebGD, a CORBA-based document classification and retrieval system on Internet. The WebGD makes use of such techniques as Web, CORBA, Java, NLP, fuzzy technique, knowledge-based processing and database technology. Unified classification and retrieval model, classifying and retrieving with one reasoning engine and flexible working mode conf...

The techniques in artificial intelligence are used in almost all the fields where human reasoning and uncertainties can be effectively modeled. The popular techniques in AI are fuzzy logic and neural networks which can be used either separately or applied together. When they are used in combined way, they are called Neuro-Fuzzy Systems. The reasons to combine these two paradigms come out of the...

In this paper we propose a framework for multisensor intrusion detection called Fuzzy Agent-Based Intrusion Detection System. A unique feature of this model is that the agent uses data from multiple sensors and the fuzzy logic to process log files. Use of this feature reduces the overhead in a distributed intrusion detection system. We have developed an agent communication architecture that pro...

The widespread use of power electronics in the field of power systems has grown significantly. With the growth of technology, power systems are seeking new and efficient forms of controlling power [1]. This paper deals with the development of Interline Power Flow Controller (IPFC) using fuzzy technology, suitable for an independent controllability over each compensated line in a multiline power...

Seawater desalination plants have been utilized to supply fresh water to the State of Kuwait since the early 50’s. In spite of the fact that there are several types of desalination technology that can be used more efficiently and economically, one type of desalination technology, namely multi-stage flash (MSF), has been used extensively in Kuwait. This work is an attempt to identify the most su...

considering convergent product as an important manufacturing technology for digital products, we integrate functions and sub-functions using a comprehensive fuzzy mathematical optimization process. to form the convergent product, a web-based fuzzy network is considered in which a collection of base functions and sub-functions configure the nodes and each arc in the network is to be a link betwe...

Supply chain management; Fuzzy clustering; Interval type-2 fuzzy hybrid system; Demand forecasting; Ordering policy; Bullwhip effect. Abstract The purpose of this paper is to evaluate and reduce the bullwhip effect in fuzzy environments by means of type-2 fuzzymethodology. In order to reduce the bullwhip effect in a supply chain, we propose a newmethod for demand forecasting. First, the demand ...

Ranking competing alternatives in terms of their overall performance with respect to some criterions in fuzzy environment is possible by the use of fuzzy TOPSIS methodology using interval-valued fuzzy-sets concepts. This author presents an effective fuzzy multi-criteria method based upon the fuzzy model and the concepts of positive ideal and negative ideal solution points for prioritizing alter...
