However, the user association and resource allocation mechanism has not been thoroughly studied under given content placement situation. In this paper, we formulate the joint optimization problem of user association and resource allocation as a mixed integer nonlinear programming(MINLP) problem aiming at deriving a balance between the total utility of data rates and the total data rates retrieved from caches. To solve this problem, we propose a distributed relaxing-rounding method. Simulation results demonstrate that the distributed relaxing-rounding method outperforms traditional max-SINR method and range-expansion method in terms of both total utility of data rates and total data rates retrieved from caches in practical scenarios. In addition, effects of storage and backhaul capacities on the performance are also studied.展开更多

Generally, such data are taken from different sources. Researchers are using data mining to perform such tasks. Data mining techniques are used to find hidden information from large data source. Data mining is using for various fields: Artificial intelligence, Bank, health and medical, corruption, legal issues, corporate business, marketing, etc. Special interest is given to associate rules, data mining algorithms, decision tree and distributed approach. Data is becoming larger and spreading geographically. So it is difficult to find better result from only a central data source. For knowledge discovery, we have to work with distributed database. On the other hand, security and privacy considerations are also another factor for de-motivation of working with centralized data. For this reason, distributed database is essential for future processing. In this paper, we have proposed a framework to study data mining in distributed environment. The paper presents a framework to bring out actionable knowledge. We have shown some level by which we can generate actionable knowledge. Possible tools and technique for these levels are discussed.展开更多

Due to finding solution which is closer to realistic characteristics, load forecasting, market price errors and the uncertainties related to the variable output power of wind based DG units are put in consideration. This work employs NSGA-II accompanied by the fuzzy set theory to solve the aforementioned multi-objective problem. The proposed scheme finally leads to a solution with a minimum voltage deviation, a maximum voltage stability, lower amount of pollutant and lower cost. The cost includes the installation costs of new equipment, reconfiguration costs, power loss cost, reliability cost, cost of energy purchased from power market, upgrade costs of lines and operation and maintenance costs of DGs. Therefore, the proposed methodology improves power quality, reliability and security in lower costs besides its preserve, with the operational indices of power distribution networks in acceptable level. To validate the proposed methodology's usefulness, it was applied on the IEEE 33-bus distribution system then the outcomes were compared with initial configuration.展开更多
