In two past decades, a revolution has occurred by emerging of substation automation system in field of substation control and protection system. The traditional control system has changed to the modern automation systems which are based on computer networks. The development of this project become possible by having experience in and being familiar with automation systems, studying equipment specifications, tasks, and criteria and analyzing operation of various systems. The main target of this thesis is evaluating the automation system precisely and exhaustively and developing a model based on mathematical relations. This model is founded based on the application and analysis of the networks.... 

Lately, there has been a great attention to accident prediction methods in traffic management. The importance of predicting an accident is because of its enormous effect on reducing casualties, injuries, property damages and delays. The main objectivein this study was to identify the relationship between accidents frequency rates and geometric design variables, climatic parameters and traffic characteristics using probabilistic models. The other objective was to evaluate the crash severity and crash type. Therefore, the 1997 traffic accident statistics of city of Mashhad in Iran was used for the for the modeling of different highway classification. Probabilistic models are used for... 

Traffic volume is the most important characteristic in most traffic studies, which is regularly measured by sampling methods for a given road. Traffic volume has determining effect in specifying network origin-destination demand, improvement of roads, traffic distributions over the network, improving road parameters, air pollution and in other aspects of flow in the network. There are many ways to measure traffic volume in different situations. However, most of them are expensive to implement and in cases which take a long time to do the survey, or the number of locations are excessive, the operation would not be cost-effective. In this research we investigate using macroscopic... 

As a problem, generally, energy security components do not interfere with the calculation of the optimal energy supply situation. In this paper, we are looking to find a solution to make a framework of the impact of energy security on energy supply in order to obtain comprehensive analysis of the economic optimal point. Method is based on the competition of energy costs to meet demand during the study period. Threats that have been addressed in the energy security are seen as risky and stochastic parameters in the model. The nature of these parameters is of uncertainty type, therefore, based on the probable scenarios of the stochastic model, the perspective of the energy supply system is... 

Television, radio, newspaper, magazines, and billboards are among the major channels that traditionally place ads, however, the advancement of the Internet enables users to seek information online. In display and mobile advertising, the most significant technical development in recent years is the growth of Real-Time Bidding (RTB), which facilitates a real-time auction for a display opportunity. Real-time means the auction is per impression and the process usually occurs less than 300 milliseconds before the ad is placed. RTB has fundamentally changed the landscape of the digital media market by scaling the buying process across a large number of available inventories among publishers in an...
