        Urban historical sites and structures are of phenomenon that lots of countries of age face. Coming true the era of "globalization" and the increasing acceleration of changes that have embraced all aspects of human life have not only underscored the importance of these historic capital and cultural affairs, but the crisis of identity and wandering of contemporary societies, looks more than It has been pinned to the legacy of the past generations. Persian baths are considered as one of the dynamic urban spaces in the center of the country's old neighborhoods, and not so long ago this type of structure and work had various functions performed in the fields of health, social, economy and etc. Today most of these baths are abandoned and useless or at least have lost most of their roles and positions, whereas one cannot underestimate the role of Iranian baths in creating the feeling of belonging among society and the economic potential it had in tourism industry development. Therefore trying to restore these structures while adopting them to modern society and needs and also keeping the authenticity and originality seems necessary. Studying the past activities concerning restoration of Iranian historical baths brings to the light a combination of factors which led to its success or failure. It seems, misunderstanding of affecting factor on restoring historical structures will somehow shape the roots to success and failure of this act. In this regard, considering what these factors and their weight are, they are a question that is posed in connection with the planning and implementation of interventions related to the restoration of old buildings and historical buildings. This article seeks to identify, analyze and prioritize the key factors affecting the restoration of Iranian baths, a small step, in line with the above requirements. This was done firstly through library studies, field studies and interviews with scholars. After identifying important influential factors, the list of factors has been passed to the experts' judgment in order to rank using the questionnaire tool. The obtained data were analyzed by SPSS software using statistical tests. Finally, the most important parameters for the restoration of traditional baths have been presented. Needless to say that in order to enhance the objectivity of the research achievements, all processes and procedures has been done with due attention and attention to the historical bath of Mohtasham Kashan.

        Network connectivity is one of the major design issues in the context of mobile sensor networks. Due to diverse communication patterns, some nodes lying in high-traffic zones may consume more energy and eventually die out resulting in network partitioning. This phenomenon may deprive a large number of alive nodes of sending their important time critical data to the sink. The application of data caching in mobile sensor networks is exponentially increasing as a high-speed data storage layer. This paper presents a deep learning-based beamforming approach to find the optimal transmission strategies for cache-enabled backhaul networks. In the proposed scheme, the sensor nodes in isolated partitions work together to form a directional beam which significantly increases their overall communication range to reach out a distant relay node connected to the main part of the network. The proposed methodology of cooperative beamforming-based partition connectivity works efficiently if an isolated cluster gets partitioned with a favorably large number of nodes. We also present a new cross-layer method for link cost that makes a balance between the energy used by the relay. By directly adding the accessible auxiliary nodes to the set of routing links, the algorithm chooses paths which provide maximum dynamic beamforming usage for the intermediate nodes. The proposed approach is then evaluated through simulation results. The simulation results show that the proposed mechanism achieves up to 30% energy consumption reduction through beamforming as partition healing in addition to guarantee user throughput.

        This paper presents a new method to maximize load restoration in faulted condition in power systems. Control variables which are used to restore maximum load include tap of power transformers, generation rescheduling, and load shedding in the worst case. Modeling is done in three stages with various control variables arrangements. In the first stage of modeling, power transformer tap is used as a control variable. In the second stage, power transformers taps and generations rescheduling are considered. In the last stage, load shedding as another variable is added to decision variable spaces. Since the number of variables is high and final solution space can be nonlinear, genetic algorithm is used in the optimization process. The capabilities of the proposed method were assessed using IEEE-RTS test system with satisfactory results. Manuscript profile

        DGs connected to distribution systems are increasing in size and number. Intentional islanding are proper alternatives to increase the reliability of end load in the network with does not access to any other branch. In other conditions these loads experiences permanent interruption. in load restoration operation, islanding is so important in the presence of DGs. Islanding is occurred when a part of distribution network is supplied only from DG sources. A new algorithm for distribution load restoration in the presence of DGs is presented in this thesis. the proposed approach minimizes the load interruption cost in restoration process based on Tabu search method. In this algorithm the maximum load with the most level of importance is restored in minimum time by reconfiguration, islanding and finally load shedding. Energy storage units and the location of synchronizing devices are considered in this thesis. The algorithm is implemented on a 32-bus test system and numerical results are presented.

        The purpose of distribution networks restoration is to re-energize the out-of-service loads after fault occurrence which is accomplished by changing the status of network switches and considering the network constraints. In this paper a multi-stage restoration method by the help of the modified decision-making tree algorithm is proposed to maximize the restored loads and also to minimize switching operations. The main stages of this method include initial restoration, reconfiguration and optimal load shedding. To reduce the search space, the network switches are categorized into different sets which avoid having any inappropriate result space. The proposed method is tested on two IEEE 69-bus and 119-bus distribution networks. The simulation results confirm the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method in distribution network restoration. Manuscript profile

        6 - A Comparative Judgement of the Views and Principles of Mullā Ṣadrā and Fakhr al-Dīn Rāzī on the Problem of Corporeal Resurrection

        Both Fakhr al-Dīn Rāzī and Mullā Ṣadrā believe in corporeal resurrection; however, they follow different approaches in this regard. A comparison of their views shows similarities in some of their principles but fundamental differences in some others. The origin of their difference is their philosophical principles and, particularly, the discussions of “identical restoration of the non-existent” and “immateriality of faculties”. The rational demonstration of Fakhr al-Dīn Rāzī’s corporeal resurrection was based on his belief in identity with the identical restoration of the non-existent, which has led to some incorrect conclusions such as the materiality of the immaterial dimensions of the soul in the process of resurrection. On the other hand, in contrast to Fakhr al-Dīn Rāzī’s claim as to philosophers’ lack of belief in corporeal resurrection, Mullā Ṣadrā tried to prove it philosophically for the first time. Although his philosophical approach gave rise to some criticisms against him, the same approach was the secret behind his immunity against repeating the same mistakes committed by mutikallimun, including Fakhr al-Dīn Rāzī. Mullā Ṣadrā rejected the theory of the restoration of the non-existent and believed in other worldly and not elemental corporeal resurrection. Therefore, to demonstrate the restoration of individuals’ acts, he did not have to resort to mutikallimun’s theory of the “return of dispersed components” of human beings. One of the other differences between the views of these two philosophers concerns the problem of the multiplicity and immateriality of faculties. Both thinkers believed in the immateriality of the soul, but Fakhr al-Dīn Rāzī maintained that soulish faculties lack multiplicity and tried to bring it in line with the idea of the identical restoration of the non-existent. However, Mullā Ṣadrā believed that the solution to the problem of corporeal resurrection, similar to many other problems, must be sought in the specific method of the soul’s knowledge, particularly, the immateriality of imagination. This paper aims to explain and evaluate the fundamental differences between the views of Fakhr al-Dīn Rāzī and Mullā Ṣadrā regarding the problem of corporeal resurrection. Manuscript profile

        The purpose of environmental impact assessment is to identify, analyse and evaluate project activities. Environmental Impact Assessment ensures the environmental concept of sustainable development by providing the necessary environmental information to determine the environmental friendliness of a proposed project. Mechanical harvesting of aquatic plants along with biological and reed harvesting in the whole area of West Wetland and opening the entrance of Chafrud River were the main activities that could be implemented in this project. Mechanical harvesting operations are performed with a Harvester machine and reed harvesting is done with a motor saw or manually. The most important activities of the project are mechanical harvesting (reed harvesting and immersion of aquatic plants floating with the Harvester machine), restoration and cleaning of waterways (Chafrud River), dewatering and rehabilitation of West Wetland, biological control and operation of wooden bridge and bird watching station. Environmental parameters, consequences and nature of the effect, impact time, magnitude of the effect and the scope of the effect were investigated and the positive and negative effects of the design were determined.

        Persian Ezafe Recognition aims to automatically identify the occurrences of Ezafe (short vowel /e/) which should be pronounced but usually is not orthographically represented. This task is similar to the task of diacritization and vowel restoration in Arabic. Ezafe recognition can be used in spelling disambiguation in Text to Speech Systems (TTS) and various other language processing tasks such as syntactic parsing and semantic role labeling. In this paper, we propose two neural approaches for the automatic recognition of Ezafe markers in Persian texts. We have tackled the Ezafe recognition task by using a Neural Sequence Labeling method and a Neural Machine Translation (NMT) approach as well. Some syntactic features are proposed to be exploited in the neural models. We have used various combinations of lexical features such as word forms, Part of Speech Tags, and ending letter of the words to be applied to the models. These features were statistically derived using a large annotated Persian text corpus and were optimized by a forward selection method. In order to evaluate the performance of our approaches, we examined nine baseline models including state-of-the-art approaches for recognition of Ezafe markers in Persian text. Our experiments on Persian Ezafe recognition based on neural approaches employing some optimized features into the models show that they can drastically improve the results of the baselines. They can also achieve better results than the Conditional Random Field method as the best-performing baseline. On the other hand, although the results of the NMT approach show a better performance compared to other baseline approaches, it cannot achieve better performance than the Neural Sequence Labeling method. The best achieved F1-measure based on neural sequence labeling is 96.29% Manuscript profile
