Abstract Parallel processing has turned into one of the emerging fields of machine learning due to providing consistent work by performing several tasks simultaneously,
enhancing reliability (the presence of more than one device ensures the workflow even if some devices disrupted), saving processing time and introducing
low cost and high-performance computation units. This research study presents a survey of parallel K-means and Fuzzy-c-means clustering algorithms
based on their implementations in parallel environments such as Hadoop, MapReduce, Graphical Processing Units, and multi-core systems. Additionally,
the enhancement in parallel clustering algorithms is investigated as hybrid approaches in which K-means and Fuzzy-c-means clustering algorithms… More >

Abstract In object-oriented development, packages form the basic modular structural components of large-scale software systems. Packaging processes aim to group
classes together to provide well-identified functions/services to the rest of the system. In this context, it is widely believed that packaging quality has an
influence on the software stability so that it should be useful predictors for modular structural stability. In this paper, we investigate the effect of packaging
configurations on the modular structure stability of object-oriented systems. Using genetic algorithms, we conducted a series of experiments to find the
relation between the packaging quality and modular structure stability. We conducted… More >

Abstract Natural ventilation is a component that provides a positive impact in the quality of air conditions in indoor environments, especially in non-industrial
buildings. The maintenance of a continuous entrance of outside air through windows provides to the indoor a feasible and affordable manner to regulate
and sustain low standards in theVOC (Volatile Organic Compounds). The technology and the Human Computer-Interaction have contributed to the creation
of Intelligent Environments (EI) that provides to humans being a positive and non-intrusive responsiveness of the environment to improve their quality of life
in daily activities. The Decision Trees for Decision Making is a mathematical… More >

Abstract This paper provides an application of Fractional Model Predictive Control (FMPC) and fractional-order Proportional Integral controller (P Iλ) on a thermal
system with time delay.The first controller is based on Grünwald-Letnikov’s method to predict the future dynamic behavior of the system. This method
consists in replacing the non-integer derivation operator of the adopted system representation by a discrete approximation. Therefore, this controller is
developed on the basis of a fractional order model. However, the second controller is founded on an extended version of Hermite-Biehler theorem to
determine the complete set stabilizing P Iλ parameters Experiment results onto a time delay… More >
