With the remarkable development and progress of earth-observation techniques, remote sensing data keep growing rapidly their volume has reached exabyte scale. However, it’s still a big challenge to manage process such huge amounts with complex diverse structures. This paper designs realizes distributed storage system for large-scale storage, access, retrieval, called RSIMS (remote images manage...

Membrane-based technologies have increasingly been chosen in desalination processes, which is evidenced by the increase of large-scale plants constructed in recent years. Indeed, several appropriate strategies should be considered to minimize problems faced during the construction, such as membrane system designs, area requirement, energy requirement, operation and maintenance, and environmenta...

in a large scale cyclic storage system ,as the number of rule parameters and/or number of operating period increase, general purpose gradient-based nlp solvers and/or genetic algorithms may loose their merits in finding optimally feasible solution to the problem. in these cases hybrid ga which decomposes the main problem into two manageable sub-problems with an iterative scheme between ga and l...

Intermittent nature of wind power faced ISO and power producers with new challenges. Wind power uncertainty has increased the required reserve capacity and deployment reserve. Consequently, large-scale wind power generation increases ISO costs and consequently reserve prices. On the other hand, since wind power producers are price taker, large-scale wind power generation decreases residual dema...

Along with the growing number of mobile communication terminals such as cellular phones and car navigation systems that utilizes the global positioning system (GPS), it has become realistic to build a large-scale social system to support human life in cities. As an example, we have proposed a large-scale navigation system for humans by utilizing mobile terminals carried by them [2]. This system...
