The Minimum Cost Flow (MCF) problem is a well-known problem in the area of network optimisation. To tackle this problem, Network Simplex Algorithm (NSA) is the fastest solution method. NSA has three extensions, namely Network Simplex plus Algorithm (NSA+), Dynamic Network Simplex Algorithm (DNSA) and Dynamic Network Simplex plus Algorithm (DNSA+). The objectives of the research reported in this...

Evaporation, as a major component of the hydrologic cycle, plays a key role in water resources development and management in arid and semi-arid climatic regions. Although there are empirical formulas available, their performances are not all satisfactory due to the complicated nature of the evaporation process and the data availability. This paper explores evaporation estimation methods based o...

abstract prediction of input flow into water resources is regarded as one of the most important issues in optimum planning and management in producing electro-water energy and optimum allocation of water into different consumption sources. different parameters affect on input discharge into dams. climate variables including temperature and rainfall have the most effect on input runoff rate to w...

ieee 802.11e standard is proposed to support quality of service (qos) in wireless local area networks (wlans). the distributed access method of 802.11e, enhanced distributed channel access (edca), prioritizes traffic generated by delay-sensitive applications by increasing probability to access medium for this type of traffic. edca resets the contention window (cw) of mobile stations to a minimu...

neural networks are applicable in identification systems from input-output data. in this report, we analyze thehammerstein-wiener models and identify them. thehammerstein-wiener systems are the simplest type of block orientednonlinear systems where the linear dynamic block issandwiched in between two static nonlinear blocks, whichappear in many engineering applications; the aim of nonlinearsyst...

Process network is a computation model in which many concurrent processes communicate through unbounded FIFO buffer and can be executed simultaneously. In real time digital signal processing applications execution time is infinite. However, failures of implementation hardware can occur. In our work, dynamic run-time reconfiguration is introduced into process network which ensures error handling...

In this paper, an efficient technique is presented to identify a 2500 KW wind turbine operating in Kahak wind farm, Qazvin province, Iran. This complicated system dealing with wind behavior is identified by using a proposed fractional order dynamic neural network (FODNN) optimized with evolutionary computation. In the proposed method, some parameters of FODNN are unknown during the process of i...
