The exercise of market power by the strategic generating companies (gencos) in the deregulated wholesale electricity market (WEM) should be mitigated, as it results in higher wholesale prices of electricity and a drop in competition in the WEM.Consequently, Optimal Transmission Switching (OTS) has been proposed as a means by which the System Operat
An Enhanced Forwarding Method based on Intelligent Water Drops Algorithm in Named Data Network
Although Named Data Network (NDN) has made a bright future in Internet for high volume of requests by many users, how to send a request package (I-Pkt) consciously from the consumer to the Producer and returning the data package (D-Pkt) inversely is still one of its most important challenges.According to the recent limited researches, using service
The combination of multi-approach studies to explore the potential therapeutic mechanisms of imidazole derivatives as an MCF-7 inhibitor in therapeutic strategies
Breast cancer covers a large area of research because of its prevalence and high frequency all over the world.This study is based on drug discovery against breast cancer from a series of imidazole derivatives.A 3D-QSAR and activity atlas model was developed by exploring the dataset computationally, using the machine learning process of Flare.The da
A Feminist Reflection on Ethnographic Research in China: Gender, Sex, and Power in Cross-Cultural Context
As a feminist cultural anthropologist specializing in social transformations in contemporary China, my research and teaching necessarily involves exploring the construction of difference, the intersectionality of gender with other social positions, and how difference Stereo Earphones upholds or challenges power.In this essay, I employ biographical
Improvement of Lithological Mapping Using Discrete Wavelet Transformation from Sentinel-1 SAR Data
Lithological mapping using dual-polarization synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data is limited by the low classification accuracy.In this study, we extract ten parameters (backscatter coefficients and polarization decomposition parameters) from the Sentinel-1 dual-pol SAR data.Using 94 mother wavelet functions (MF), a one-level two-dimensional discret
