This paper presents an application of Benders decomposition to deal with the complexities in the simultaneous Generation Expansion Planning (GEP) and Transmission Expansion Planning (TEP). Unlike the power system operation fields of study, the power system planning methods are not expected to be fast. However, it is always preferable to speed up computations to provide more analysis options for...

Resumen. En el presente trabajo se analiza una base de datos para identificar las causas de la deserción escolar en la carrera de ingeniería en computación de la Universidad de Ixtlahuaca CUI (UICUI) a través de técnicas de minería de datos. Para ello, se aplicaron reactivos para obtener información relacionada al semestre, número de cuenta, edad, estado civil, conocer si trabaja para solventar...

Polysaccharides and proteins are natural polymers that are widely used as functional ingredients for various food colloids or emulsion formulations. Majority of food emulsions are constituted with polysaccharide and protein combinations. They are the essential ingredients of any food colloid formulation mainly due to their ability to change product shelf life by varying food texture (Schmidt & ...

-In this paper, we show that Otsu's image thresholding, Kittler and Illingworth's minimum error thresholding, and Huang and Wang's fuzzy thresholding methods can be derived under a similar mathematical formulation. The difference among the three methods is the choice of different weighting functions for computing a criterion function that can be considered as a weighted summation of the image g...

esde el momento en que el fenómeno de la Computación de Usuario Final (CUF) apareció en las organizaciones debido al problema de backlog (retroalimentación de aplicaciones), al crecimiento de la familiaridad con las computadoras o a que el concepto se encuentra en su segunda fase (proliferación), comenzó a crecer y a ser utilizado por más profesionistas, ejecutivos, administradores, oficinistas...

Although systemic grammars are represented declaratively (as system networks), the most important implementations to date have been committed to the generation direction , and seem more or less incomprehensible for the researcher not familiar with systemic descriptions and software. The aim of this paper is, therefore, to re-represent systemic grammar resources in a standard typed feature logic...
