Nowadays, due to the increase in energy demand, the optimal management of energy consumption has become one of the main challenges in smart cities. This research is an important step towards making energy management smarter in smart cities. In this research, a hybrid model based on deep learning, convolutional neural networks (CNN) and long-short-term memory (LSTM) neural network is proposed to accurately predict energy consumption. By combining these two models, it is possible to have a more accurate prediction of future energy consumption and to make better decisions for energy management by identifying complex patterns of energy consumption and providing solutions to optimize energy consumption. First, energy consumption data is collected from various sources such as sensors and smart meters, then data preprocessing is done to prepare them for model training, and CNN is used to extract spatial features from energy consumption data and LSTM is used to understand the temporal patterns of these data and predict energy consumption. . The proposed method has advantages such as high accuracy of energy consumption prediction, identification of complex patterns in energy consumption, the possibility of making better decisions for energy management, helping to reduce energy consumption and improving environmental sustainability.

Distributed systems such as Grid- and Cloud Computing provide web services to their users worldwide. One of the most important concerns that service providers face is total cost of ownership (TCO). A large portion of TCO is related to power consumption due to inefficient resource management. Task scheduling module as a key component can have a great impact on user response time and underlying resource utilization. Such heterogeneous distributed systems have used different processors with different speeds and architectures. Also, the user program, which is usually represented as a directed acyclic graph (DAG), must be executed on these types of parallel processing systems. Since work scheduling in such complex systems is part of NP-hard problems, the existing heuristic approaches are no longer efficient. Therefore, the workflow is to use hybrid meta-heuristic approaches. In this paper, we have presented a meta-heuristic genetic shuffled task scheduling algorithm to minimize the total execution time and duration of user programs. In this regard, we take advantage of other heuristic methods such as Heterogeneous Fastest Termination Time (HEFT) to generate an intelligent initial population using a new hybrid operator, which creates a wealth for exploring feasible and promising individuals in the search space. We also direct other genetic operators in the correct way to produce a near-optimal final solution. To achieve tangible results, we have performed several scenarios. Compared to other existing approaches such as HEFT and QGARAR versions, our proposed algorithm has performed better in terms of average duration.

The statistical population includes 145 all logistics experts who have served in the floating unit and have at least a bachelor's degree and 20 years of service. . Interviews, questionnaires and library studies were used as data collection tools. . The results showed that in order to integrate the procurement of floating units, must be removed and principles of integrated logistics must be observed in all its components, which are: Reforming the organizational structure of logistics from a task to process orientation, elimination of duplicate components and activities, convergence of goals by strategic management levels, effective interaction between all components, comprehensive database, understanding the limitations of other components, perfect coordination between the flow of information and materials along the logistics chain, all information available in different parts of the organization have a specific format.

Software Reliability (SR) is a key non-operational feature measured when evaluating software quality. To enhance this feature, it is important to detect failures and mitigate them in the testing phase. SR can be increased by identifying and removing this failure from the defect data. The existing literature consists of many models/methods applicable to measuring SR, including the SR Growth Models (SRGMs). Generally, SRGMs are in two main types: parametric and non-parametric. As these models are diverse, when applying to a certain problem, the particular requirements and conditions of that problem should be taken into account. The current paper explains the fundamental concepts of reliability, then reviews the Parametric SR Growth Models (PSRGMs) and evaluates various approaches already proposed in this domain. In addition, this study investigates the SRGMs compatibility by means of a novel Parallel Real-valued Genetic Algorithm (PRGA)-based method. The results achieved under a variety of conditions for each model showed the extent of compatibility with GA.

The type of asphalt pavement performance depends on its material properties, manufacturing process and implementation. Surface free energy is an important feature of aggregates and bitumen in predicting the performance of asphalt mixture. Surface free energy indicates the amount of bitumen and aggregate adhesion and the energy parameters related to the moisture resistance performance of bitumen and aggregate. In addition, the mixing temperature of modified bitumen, as part of the modified bitumen preparation method, may have an effective role in the final performance of the bitumen and its composition with aggregates. In this article, the effect of modified bitumens with epoxy resin and their preparation temperature on bitumen surface free energy and moisture resistance of asphalt mixtures is investigated. For this purpose, the modified bitumens containing epoxy resin additive were prepared at 2, 4, 6 and 8 percent (w/w) of bitumen at two temperatures of 90 and 130 °C and surface free energy parameters related to moisture sensitivity were calculated. Results showed different performance between various compositions of bitumen and aggregates for different percentages of additive and bitumen preparation temperatures. In bitumen and silica aggregates, modified bitumen with 6% epoxy resin at 90 °C mixing temperature, and in bitumen and limestone aggregates, modified bitumen with 4% epoxy resin, with 130 °C mixing temperature, showed optimum performance in terms of moisture resistance.

Although the term “logistics” has been a part of our everyday speech for few centuries, studies show that utilizing logistic functions traces back to humanity’s early days. Logistics makes possible the transformation of national resources to military forces, and, furthermore, transforms economic capacities along with human and natural resources to arms, equipment, ammunition and individual and group needs for military forces. The greater and more complex a logistic system is, the clearer becomes its importance of management. In larger and more complex scales, logistic management requires a strong and intelligent leadership. A logistics leader must have the ability to recognize the changing factors in logistics, and to present and functionalize the solutions leading to further efficiency and immediate response to the arising needs. In addition to defining the concept of logistics in the current article, the researcher has tried to study the logistic environment, Components and processes, and to provide a short comparison between logistics in military and non-military organizations.
