Multi-Mode Resource Constrained Project Scheduling Problem with Material Ordering to Maximize NPV
(2018-04)Project management is critical for companies to stay competitive; nowadays it is regarded as a very high priority. The project management scheduling process of deciding when an activity starts and how resources will be ... -
Multi-Model Investigation and Adaptive Estimation of the Acoustic Release of a Model Drug From Liposomes
(IEEE, 2019)This paper researches a suitable mathematical model that can reliably predict the release of a model drug (namely calcein) from biologically targeted liposomal nanocarriers triggered by ultrasound. Using mathematical models, ... -
A Multi-Objective Allocation Approach for Power Quality Monitoring Devices
(IEEE Xplore Digital Library, 2019)With the inception of smart grids and the increased integration of renewable resources, the continuous monitoring of power systems becomes increasingly important to monitor power quality (PQ) and speed up the localization ... -
A multi-objective planning approach for optimal DG allocation for droop based microgrids
(Elsevier, 2021-11)This paper proposes a multi-objective planning approach to determine the optimal DG locations for droop-based microgrids. A secondary control operating region is mathematically formulated and incor-porated in the multi-objective ... -
Multi-Objective Task Allocation Via Multi-Agent Coalition Formation
(2012-05)Nowadays, tasks are complex and cannot be performed by individual agents. Therefore, there is a need to form coalitions utilizing the resources in order to maximize the efficiency of the system and/or maximize the payoff ... -

Multi-Robot Map Exploration Based on Multiple Rapidly-Exploring Randomized Trees
(2017-05)Efficient robotic navigation requires a predefined map. In order to autonomously acquire a map, it is desired that robots have the ability to explore unknown environments with minimum cost and time, while ensuring complete ... -
Multifunctional Nanovehicles for Combined 5-Fluorouracil and Gold Nanoparticles Based on the Nanoprecipitation Method
(American Scientific Publishers, 2011)To facilitate the administration of combined 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) and gold nanoparticles (for photothermal treatment purposes), we developed 5-FU-gold-poly(lactide-co-glycolic acid) (5-FU-Au- PLGA) nanovehicles, via the ... -
Multilayer Transcoding with format portability for multicasting of single-layered video
(IEEE, 2005)This paper proposes a novel multilayer video transcoding approach for multicasting pre-encoded video to heterogeneous end-systems via diverse grouping of networks. Multilayer transcoding is first addressed by means of ... -
Multiple Plants Capacitated Lot Sizing and Scheduling with Sequence-Dependent Setup Costs
(2016-11)Production planning is a crucial activity for companies to satisfy customers demand while minimizing cost. The objective of this research is to optimize the production planning and scheduling decisions of companies in ... -
Multiple Proposals for Continuous Arabic Sign Language Recognition
(Springer, 2019)The deaf community relies on sign language as the primary means of communication. For the millions of people around the world who suffer from hearing loss, interaction with hearing people is quite difficult. The main ... -
A Multistage Passive Islanding Detection Method for Synchronous-Based Distributed Generation
(IEEE, 2021-03)A multistage approach to passive islanding detection is proposed that utilizes a decision tree (DT) like classification algorithm. The novelty of the proposed method is centered on the way in which features are passed to ... -
Music Aptitude and Phonemic Processing
(2022-11)Music aptitude and second language (L2) phonemic processing are said to be connected via the processing of sounds, which also known as acoustic processing. Previous literature on this topic discusses how vowels are associated ... -
