  • Advanced WiMAX simulator with optimal downlink bursts construction 
    Abbas, Nadine Fawaz (American University of Beirut, 2011)
    As technology is advancing, and the internet becoming more vital, the need for faster means of communication is becoming a must. WiMAX networks are being studied to achieve different efficiency objectives. As in any ...
  • Assigning proctors to exams using scatter search. (c2006) 
    Zeidan, Moujab Moustapha (Lebanese American University, 2011-05-13)
    Scatter search is an evolutionary algorithm used to solve a multitude of real-life problems. It can be classified as a population-based methodology in the field of meta-heuristics. The main characteristic of scatter search ...
  • Bee colony algorithm for assigning proctors to exams. (c2013) 
    Taha, Mohamad Kassem (Lebanese American University, 2013-08-22)
    Proctor assignment refers to assigning proctors to exams with the objective of having the appropriate number of proctors assigned to exams, subject to conditions such as minimizing the load of proctoring and preventing any ...
  • A family of minimum curvature variable-methods for unconstrained optimization. (c1998) 
    Obeid, Samir Y. (Lebanese American University, 2011-10-13)
    The major objective of the work in this thesis concentrates on deriving a Variable-Metric family of minimum curvature multi-step quasi-Newton methods for unconstrained optimization. The aim is to provide further gains ...
  • Implementation of trust region methods in optimization. (c1998) 
    Hajj, Mohammed Omar (Lebanese American University, 2010-11-26)
    This project presents a new approach to Quasi-Newton methods for unconstrained optimization. Quasi-Newton Methods update at each iteration the existing Hessian approximation (or its inverse) cheaply by integrating data ...
  • Minimizing using BBO and DFO methods 
    El Zeghondy, Jean (Lebanese American University, 2022-05-19)
    In [1], Nour and Zeidan proposed a numerical algorithm to solve optimal control problems involving sweeping processes. In order to apply this algorithm to real life problems, two numerical methods need to be developed: A ...
  • Particle swarm optimization based algorithm for protein structure prediction in the 3D HP model. (c2008) 
    Kanj, Fatima Hassan (Lebanese American University, 2011-10-25)
    Proteins play key roles in many biological functions and represent the building blocks of organisms. They are found in the hair, skin, muscles, blood, etc. ... Proteins are complex organic compounds of which the basic ...
  • A Scatter search algorithm for exam scheduling. (c2006) 
    Isahakian, Vatche Raffi (Lebanese American University, 2011-09-26)
    At universities where students enjoy flexibility in selecting courses, the Registrar's office aims to generate an appropriate exam schedule for numerous courses and large number of students. An appropriate exam schedule ...
  • Software defect prediction. (c2019) 
    Moussa, Rebecca (Lebanese American University, 2019-04-16)
    Software systems are becoming more and more complex. With the increasing size and complexity of software systems, it is becoming more challenging to assess their quality. There are several attributes that de ne software ...
  • Squirrel Search Algorithm for Portfolio Optimization 
    Dhaini, Mahdi (Lebanese American University, 2019-10-11)
    Portfolio Optimization is a standard financial engineering problem. It aims for finding the best allocation of resources for a set of assets. This problem has been studied extensively in the literature where different ...
  • A Survey of Data Clustering Techniques 
    Sobeh, Salma (Lebanese American University, 2023-05-19)
    In the fourth industrial revolution era of today, individuals encounter an immense volume of information daily. The digital world is rich in data like IoT, social media, healthcare, business, cryptocurrencies, cybersecurity, ...
  • Variational analysis and sensitivity relations of the bilateral minimal time functions for nonlinear differential inclusions. (c2019) 
    Chamoun, Samara Sarkis (Lebanese American University, 2019-11-27)
    The main objective of this thesis is to study the '0-convexity of the epigraph of the bilateral minimal time function for a nonlinear control system. There are three parts in our work. In the first part, we study the ...
