A simulation methodology, which trades space complexity with time complexity, to create the Hopfield neural network weight matrix, the costliest data structure for simulation of Hopfield neural network algorithm for large-scale optimization problems, is proposed. Modular composition of a weight...

This article describes how parallel to the continuous growth of the Internet, which allows people to share and collaborate more, social networks have become more attractive as a research topic in many different disciplines. Community structures are established upon interactions between people....

An optimization strategy based on head losses minimization is developed for the least cost design of water distribution networks. A new weighting approach is suggested for calculating the initial flow distribution and optimum pipe diameters of the weighted flow distribution is presented by using...
