Abstract: With the rapid deployment of smart technologies and the growing complexity in our modern society, there is a huge demand for coordination in day-to-day operation of the critical infrastructure networks. The coordination between water and electricity networks particularly stands out and is urgently demanding as (i) water system is one of the most energy-intensive critical infrastructure, and (ii) water unavailability, if experienced, swiftly translates into a health, safety, and national security concern. This paper proposes a comprehensive day-ahead optimization framework for joint operation of the interdependent power and water systems. Different from the conventional paradigms where the power and water systems are independently and individually operated by their respective operators, the proposed optimization framework integrates the Optimal Power Flow (OPF) models in power grids with innovative models of the water distribution systems. The nonlinear hydraulic operating constraints in the proposed optimization models are linearized, resulting into a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model formulation. The proposed framework is applied to three 15-node water distribution systems, operated within the IEEE 9-bus test system. The simulation results demonstrate a significant cost saving that will be achieved when the proposed approach is applied for joint operation of power and water networks.

Here is a general description of what you might find in the Colorado State University Jewish community:
- Hillel Organization: Many universities, including CSU, have a Hillel organization, which is a Jewish student organization that provides a platform for Jewish students to connect, celebrate Jewish culture, and explore their faith. Hillel often organizes events, such as Shabbat dinners, holiday celebrations, and educational programs.
- Jewish Student Groups: CSU may have various Jewish student groups or clubs where students with shared interests within the Jewish community can come together. These groups may focus on different aspects of Jewish culture, social activities, or advocacy.
- Religious Services: Some universities with a significant Jewish population offer on-campus religious services, such as Shabbat services and High Holy Days observances, to accommodate students’ religious needs.
- Cultural Events: The Jewish community at CSU might organize cultural events and activities, such as lectures, film screenings, and cultural festivals, to promote understanding and appreciation of Jewish heritage and traditions.
To get the most accurate and up-to-date information about the Colorado State University Jewish community, I recommend visiting the university’s website or contacting the relevant student organizations and offices on campus. Additionally, you can connect with current students or alumni who are part of the Jewish community at CSU to gain insights into their experiences and activities.

Abstract. This paper proposes a new intelligent fashion recommender system to select the most relevant garment design scheme for a specific consumer in order to deliver new personalized garment products. This system integrates emotional fashion themes and human perception on personalized body shapes and professional designers’ knowledge. The corresponding perceptual data are systematically collected from professional using sensory evaluation techniques. The perceptual data of consumers and designers are formalized mathematically using fuzzy sets and fuzzy relations. The complex relation between human body measurements and basic sensory descriptors, provided by designers, is modeled using fuzzy decision trees. The fuzzy decision trees constitute an empirical model based on learning data measured and evaluated on a set of representative samples.
The complex relation between basic sensory descriptors and fashion themes, given by consumers, is modeled using fuzzy cognitive maps. The combination of the two models can provide more complete information to the fashion recommender system, making it possible to evaluate if a specific body shape is relevant to a desired emotional fashion theme and which garment design scheme can improve the image of the body shape. The proposed system has been validated in a customized design and mass market selection through the evaluations of target consumers and fashion experts using a method frequently used in marketing study.
