Research ArticleOpen accessOptimization of Electric Power Distribution Using Hybrid Simulated Annealing ApproachWalid Ahmed, Alaa F. ShetaThe key goal of electric power distribution companies is to provide a high quality of service with a low cost of operation. The growing customer needs requires a re-distribution of the Power over various nodes of the Distributed Generation (DG) facilitates. The re-distribution might cause over load on various parts of the networks which if not correctly optimized might increase … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,606 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessForecasting River Flow in the USA: A Comparison between Auto-Regression and Neural Network Non-Parametric ModelsAbdel K.M. Baareh, Alaa F. Sheta, Khaled A. KhnaifesForecasting a time series became one of the most challenging tasks to variety of data sets. The existence of large number of parameters to be estimated and the effect of uncertainty and outliers in the measurements makes the time series modeling too complicated. Recently, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) became quite successful tool to handle time series modeling problem. This paper … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 6,962 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEstimation of the COCOMO Model Parameters Using Genetic Algorithms for NASA Software ProjectsAlaa F. ShetaDefining the project estimated cost, duration and maintenance effort early in the development life cycle is a valuable goal to be achieved for software projects. Many model structures evolved in the literature. These model structures consider modeling software effort as a function of the developed line of code (DLOC). Building such a function helps project managers to accurately allocate the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2006 · 9,357 accessesView PDF Cite
