In this article, using Laplace transformation , an analytical solution is obtained for the DGLAP evolution equation at the next-to-leading order of perturbative QCD. The technique is also employed to extract, in the Laplace $s$-space, an analytical solution for the nuclear structure function, $F_2^A(x, Q^2)$. Firstly, the results for separate nuclear parton distributions for all parton types are presented which include valence quark densities, the anti-quark and strange sea PDFs and finally the gluon distribution. Based on the Laplace transformation, the obtained parton distribution functions and the nuclear structure function in the $x$-space are compared with the results from the [Phys.\ Rev.\ C series 86, 064301 (2012)] model. Our calculations are in good agreement with the available DIS experimental data as well as theoretical models which contain both small and large values of $x$-Bjorken variable. We compare our nuclear PDFs sets with those from other recent collaborations, in particular with the [ nCTEQ15 ] and [ HKN07] sets. The comparison between our results and those from the literature indicates a good agreement .
