Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Challenge for Routing Algorithms in Optical Multistage Interconnection NetworksMehrnaz Moudi, Mohamed OthmanProblem statement: A class of dynamic interconnection networks is Multistage Interconnection Networks (MINs) that connects input devices to output devices through a number of switch stages. MINs have assumed importance in recent years; because of their cost-effectiveness. Optical MINs are one type of MINs that have large transmission capacity in the communication networks. There is a major problem in Optical … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 29 Aug 2011 · 7,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Reinforced Concrete Beams and Steel Beams: A Comparative StudyJoel M. Ozimboski, Zacarias M.C. Pravia, Moacir KripkaIn order to support the structural designer with regard to the selection of structural materials, this work presents results obtained from the optimization of reinforced concrete beams and welded “I” steel beams. To achieve this objective, both problems were formulated according to Brazilian standards, considering the cost as objective function and section dimensions as design variables. For the optimization of … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 18 Jun 2020 · 6,596 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulated Annealing Decoder for Linear Block CodesLahcen Niharmine, Hicham Bouzkraoui, Ahmed Azouaoui, Youssef HadiIn this study, we introduce a novel soft decoder, the first of its kind, for linear block codes, based on Simulated Annealing algorithm (SA). The main enhancement in our contribution which let our decoder over performs with large gain (about 3 dB at 710-4) the classical SA approach, is to take the most reliable information set of the received codeword … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 8 · 4 Sep 2018 · 7,810 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParallel Memetic Algorithm for VLSI Circuit Partitioning Problem using Graphical Processing UnitsP. Subbaraj, P. SivakumarProblem statement: Memetic Algorithm (MA) is a form of population-based hybrid Genetic Algorithm (GA) coupled with an individual learning procedure capable of performing local refinements. Here we used genetic algorithm to explore the search space and simulated annealing as a local search method to exploit the information in the search region for the optimization of VLSI netlist bi-Partitioning problem. However, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 27 Feb 2012 · 7,090 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCrystal Structure of 2-(4-Hydroxy-3-Methoxyphenyl)-6- (4-Hydroxy-3-Methoxystyryl)-1-Methyl-2, 3-Dihydropyridine-4 (1H)-One by X-Ray Powder DiffractionBahjat A. Saeed, Kawkab Y. Saour, Rita S. Elias, Deng XiaodiProblem statement: The studied dihydropyridone was synthesized for the first time via the microwave assisted reaction of curcumin and methylamine and it is important to support the mechanism by the crystal structure. Approach: The crystal structure of the title compound was determined using high resolution x-ray diffraction. PowderSolve program was used to solve the structure while the refinement was done … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,160 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCalculation of Total Cost, Tolerance Based on Taguchi's, Asymmetric Quality Loss Function ApproachR. Sampath Kumar, N. Alagumurthi, R. RameshProblem statement: Current world market force the manufacturing sectors to develop high quality product and process design with minimum possible cost. About 80% of problems in production units may be attributed to 20% of design tolerance causes. While design typically represents the smallest actual cost elements in products (around 5%), it leverages the largest cost influence (around 70%). So design … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,045 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrating Gene Expression Programming and Geographic Information Systems for Solving a Multi Site Land Use Allocation ProblemKhalid A. EldrandalyProblem statement: Land use planning may be defined as the process of allocating different activities or uses to specific units of area within a region. Multi sites Land Use Allocation Problems (MLUA) refer to the problem of allocating more than one land use type in an area. MLUA problem is one of the truly NP Complete (combinatorial optimization) problems. Approach: … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,849 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplying Simulated Annealing For Optimal Operation of Multi-Reservoir SystemsF. Khodabakhshi, A. R. Ghirian, N. KhakzadThe need to optimize the operation of water reservoirs is an issue that is becoming increasingly a concern for water resources planners in developing countries. This issue particularly becomes more significant in large systems with multiple reservoirs where operation of one reservoir has an impact on the others. In other word, the set of reservoirs in these systems act like … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,620 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeuristic Algorithm in Optimal Discrete Structural DesignsAlongkorn Lamom, Thaksin Thepchatri, Wanchai RivepiboonThis study proposes a Heuristic Algorithm for Material Size Selection (HAMSS). It is developed to handle discrete structural optimization problems. The proposed algorithm (HAMSS), Simulated Annealing Algorithm (SA) and the conventional design algorithm obtained from a structural steel design software are studied with three selected examples. The HAMSS, in fact, is the adaptation from the traditional SA. Although the SA … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,345 accessesView PDFCite
