optimization through simulation is considered anefficient tool in dealing with optimization problems. it’s a tool that iscapable to cover real world problems to a much more complete way than the otheroptimization tools. the problem of this tool is the necessity of heavyprocessing computations. this problem is caused not only since the simulationprocess is time consuming, but the objective funct...

Facies modeling is an essential part of reservoir characterization. The connectivity of facies model is very critical for the dynamic modeling of reservoirs. Carbonate reservoirs are so heterogeneous that variogram-based methods like sequential indicator simulation are not very useful for facies modeling. In this paper, multiple point geostatistics (MPS) is used for facies modeling in one of th...

Parallel file replication where a large file needs to be simultaneously replicated to multiple sites is an integral part of dataintensive grid environment. Current data transport mechanisms such as GridFTP is mainly created for point-to-point file transfer and not for parallel point-to-multipoint transfer (required in replication). This paper presents a tool that creates multiple distribution t...

a robust and reliable quantitative structure-property relationship (qspr) study was established to forecast the melting points (mps)  of a diverse and long set including 250 drug-like compounds. based on the calculated descriptors by dragon software package, to detect homogeneities and to split the whole dataset into training and test sets, a principal component analysis (pca) approach was used...

Multiple-point statistics are used in geostatistical simulation to improve forecasting of responses that are highly dependent on the reproduction of complex features of the phenomenon that cannot be captured by conventional two-point simulation methods. Inference of multiple-point statistics is often based on a training image that depicts the features that provide the character to the geologica...

laguerre function has many advantages such as good approximation capability for different systems, low computational complexity and the facility of on-line parameter identification. therefore, it is widely adopted for complex industrial process control. in this work, laguerre function based adaptive model predictive control algorithm (ampc) was implemented to control continuous stirred tank rea...
