migration of virtual machine (vm) is a critical challenge in cloud computing. the process to move vms or applications from one physical machine (pm) to another is known as vm migration. in vm migration several issues should be considered. one of the major issues in vm migration problem is selecting an appropriate pm as a destination for a migrating vm. to face this issue, several approaches are...

in this paper, a robust integral of the sign error (rise) feedback controller is designed for a rigid-link electrically driven (rled) robot manipulator actuated by direct current dc motor in presence of parametric uncertainties and additive disturbances. rise feedback with implicitly learning capability is a continuous control method based on the lyapunov stability analysis to compensate an add...

support vector machine (svm) was used to analyze the occurrence of roach in flemish stream basins (belgium). several habitat and physico?chemical variables were used as inputs for the model development. the biotic variable merely consisted of abundance data which was used for predicting presence/absence of roach. genetic algorithm (ga) was combined with svm in order to select the most important...

clogging occurs during mechanical tunneling with a tunnel boring machine (tbm) because of adhesion of clayey soils to the cutterhead and conveyor system. the present study examined the effects of water and sand contents on clogging in montmorillonite clayeysoil. testing was carried out using an adhesion test device on 28 samples with different water and sand contents to determine adhesionstress...

walnuts are one of the most important nut crops worldwide. the area under cultivation increases every year. in 2008, the food and agriculture organization reported exports of about $17.1 billion. the country of iran is the 4th largest producer of walnuts in the world. stages from production to consumption are very important, because the condition and quality of the shelled nutmeats affects the ...

the occurrence of chatter vibrations in boring operation has a great influence in improving workpiece dimensional accuracy, surface quality and production efficiency. in this paper instability analysis of machining process is presented by dynamic model of boring machine. this model, which consists of machine tool’s structure, is provided by finite element method and ansys software. the model is...

the lithologies of regions, which located near the collision zone, are very different from other geology setting. mapping in these areas needs extensive and exact studies and tools because of the variety of rocks, intensive tectonic uplift and complicated units. hyperspectral sensor is one of the most advanced tools with hundreds of bands that each measures a very narrow range of wavelengths an...

background: we aimed to assess the high-risk group for suicide using different classification methods includinglogistic regression (lr), decision tree (dt), artificial neural network (ann), and support vector machine (svm). methods: we used the dataset of a study conducted to predict risk factors of completed suicide in hamadan province, the west of iran, in 2010. to evaluate the high-risk grou...

printing and copying centers have been implicated as an emission source of pollution, and affecting air quality in closed environments. the aim of this study was to measure the btex compound (benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, and xylenes), and the intensity of electromagnetic fields and the uva ray in photocopy centers in the hamadan city. this descriptive study was done on 45 printing and copyi...
