Many complex models and approaches are utilized for the analysis of resources, scales and scheduler of software systems. The challenge is still present to accurately approximate the resources for Web based applications and intelligent systems softwares. The user requirements and capabilities are continuously altering, such situations produce problems dealing with environments related to intelli...

introduction: kidney disease is a major public health challenge worldwide. epidemiologic data suggest a significant relationship between underlying diseases and decrease in glomerular filtration rate (gfr). clinical studies and laboratory research have shown that the mentioned parameter is effective in development and progression of the renal disease per se. in this study, we used learning-base...

Microgrids are autonomous low-voltage power distribution systems that contain multiple distributed energy resources (DERs) and smart loads that can provide power system operation flexibility. To effectively control and coordinate multiple DERs and loads of microgrids, this paper proposes a distributed intelligent management system that employs a multi-agent-based control system so that delicate...

uniaxial compressive strength (ucs) and internal friction coefficient (µ) are the most important strength parameters of rock. they could be determined either by laboratory tests or from empirical correlations. the laboratory analysis sometimes is not possible for many reasons. on the other hand, due to changes in rock compositions and properties, none of the correlations could be applied as an ...

Agents that operate in a multi-agent system need an efficient strategy to handle their encounters with other agents involved. Searching for an optimal interactive strategy is a hard problem because it depends mostly on the behavior of the others. In this work, interaction among agents is represented as a repeated two-player game, where the agents’ objective is to look for a strategy that maximi...

Future intelligent interfaces will have contextual goals to pursue. As opposed to more traditional scenarios of Human Computer Interaction, the user interface may also aim at inducing the user, or in general the audience, to perform some actions in the real world. Some scenarios of application are dynamic advertisement, preventive medicine, social action and edutainment. In this prospect we are...

13 Modeling human control strategy (HCS) is becoming an increasingly popular paradigm in a number of different research areas, ranging from robotics and intelligent vehicle highway systems to expert training and virtual reality computer games. Usually, HCS models are derived empirically, rather than analytically, from real-time human input–output data. While these empirical models offer an effe...
