This paper develops and applies neural network (NN) models to forecast regional employment patterns in Germany. Computer-aided optimization tools that imitate natural biological evolution to find the solution that best fits the given case (namely, genetic algorithms, GAs) are also used to detect...

Photovoltaic (PV) systems have one of the highest potentials and operating ways for generating electrical power by converting solar irradiation directly into the electrical energy. In order to control maximum output power, using maximum power point tracking (MPPT) system is highly recommended....

In this paper a multidimensional term structure model is used to find statistical arbitrage opportunities in the interest rates derivatives market. The implied volatility of the model is calibrated by using a genetic algorithm optimization method. Two different options over the same underlying...

One of the essential aspects of power system planning is generation expansion planning (GEP). The purpose of GEP is to enhance construction planning and reduce the costs of installing different types of power plants. This paper proposes a method based on Genetic Algorithm (GA) for GEP in the...

Data Warehouses are structures with large amount of data collected from heterogeneous sources to be used in a decision support system. Data Warehouses analysis identifies hidden patterns initially unexpected which analysis requires great memory and computation cost. Data reduction methods were...

Software specifications are useful to the organizations to enforce a consistent approach in designing, implementing and the maintenance of the software. There are numerous principles employed for the assurance of the quality of the software. Concurrent engineering with Genetic algorithms have...

The development of FACTs technology has been a great help in enhancing the function of power systems as it minimizes the power system instability problem, minimize losses and voltage profile. Due to high capitals involved with Flexible AC transmission systems (FACTs) devices, proper planning in...

There is huge amount of data which is being processed daily. According to statistic world’s population is 7 billion and 6 billion people has smart phones. So, having smart phones there are various application which connects world. It has made world easier and difficult at the same time. Social...
