Abstract
Recently, image processing technique and robotic vision are widely applied in fault detection of industrial products as well as document reading. In order to compare the captured images from the target, it is necessary to prepare a perfect image, then matching should be applied. A preprocessing must therefore, be done to correct the samples’ and or camera’s movement which can occur during the capturing of images. The Radon Transform technique is applied in this study which is inherently invariant to any movement, such as dislocation and rotation which leads to scale changing. According to this technique, simple methods are proposed to determine the degree of movement. Results of computer simulation show the priority of the proposed
method to other techniques. The accuracy of the proposed algorithm is less than 0.1 degree and is applicable to different segments such as texts, tables, drawings, …, which are prepared in different writing languages by different devices such as digital camera, scanner, fax, and printer.

Abstract
Methods for calculating Available Transfer Capability (ATC) of the transmission systems may be grouped under Static and Dynamic methods. This paper presents a fast dynamic method for ATC calculations, which considers both Transient Stability Limits and Voltage Stability Limits as terminating criteria. A variation of Energy Function Method is used to determine the transient stability limit and the determinant of the Jacobian matrix of the system is used as an index to determine the voltage stability limit. A novel method is used to approximately calculate this determinant. Combining these two methods, an algorithm that calculates ATC, based on both voltage and angle dynamic stability is presented. The advantage of this algorithm, besides considering both voltage and angle dynamic stability, is its high speed. This speed of calculation makes the algorithm a perfect
candidate to be used in screening contingencies and to determine those cases that need to be further analyzed. To demonstrate the validity, efficiency, and the speed of the new method, it is employed in the calculation of ATC for numerical examples with 2, 3, 7 (CIGREE), 10, 30 (IEEE) and 145 (Iowa State) buses.

Abstract
In this paper, the problem of batch scheduling in a flexible flow shop environment is studied. It is assumed that machines in some stages are able to process a number of jobs simultaneously. The applications of this problem can be found in various industries including spring and wire manufacturing and in auto industry. A mixed integer programming formulation of the problem is presented and it is shown that the problem is NP-Hard. Three heuristics will then be developed to solve the problem and a lower bound is also developed for evaluating the performance of the proposed heuristics. Results show that heuristic H3 gives better results compared to the others.
