this paper studies the modeling and optimization of energy use and greenhouse gas emissions of eggplant production using artificial neural network and multi-objective genetic algorithm in guilan province of iran. results showed that the highest share of energy consumption belongs to diesel fuel (49.24%); followed by nitrogen (33.30%). the results indicated that a total energy input of 13910.67 ...

Production planning includes complex topics of production and operation management that according to expansion of decision-making methods, have been considerably developed. Nowadays, Managers use innovative approaches to solving problems of production planning. Given that the production plan is a type of prediction, models should be such that the slightest deviation from their reality. In this ...

background: cellulytic enzymes including carboxymethyl cellulases play the key role in hydrolysis of cellulose, a huge organic carbon reservoir on earth, into monomeric sugars and their eventual conversion into valuable chemicals and energy sources. objectives: in this study, we described the identification of a basidiomycete isolate ndvn01 and optimization of culture conditions and medium comp...

This study evaluates the operational activities on an Air Force base and how they can be improved through integration of new technologies, organization of infrastructure/installations, and applied process improvement leading to a decrease in operational costs and manpower. This effort, called Sierra Bravo, was tasked to Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) by the United States Air ...

background: the complexity of the fermentation processes is mainly due to the complex nature of the biological systems which follow the life in a non-linear manner. joined performance of artificial neural network (ann) and genetic algorithm (ga) in finding optimal solutions in experimentation has found to be superior compared to the statistical methods. range of applications of β-cyclodextrin (...
