Protected Private Information for Proximity Computingin Mobile Social Network by Jinshuang Li, Fengyun Li

“…Mobile social network（MSN）extend social network in the cyberspace into the real world.It allows mobile users to discover and interact with a stranger in their physical vicinity.Proximity computing means that two users can compare their personal profiles in MSN application.It is,however,possible disclosing user's privacy information.To address this concerns,two novel proximity computing protocols were designed.The protocols enable two users to perform proximity computing without disclosing any information about their profiles.…”

Space Matters in Rachel Cusk’s Arlington Park by Armelle PAREY

“…My hypothesis is that with this emphasis on space Cusk may be modernist in her narrative style but she deliberately remains close to the Victorians in her choice of themes and treatment of women characters in relation to space in order to make a strong feminist statement, in the sense that her novel examines the experience of sexual difference and gendered space to denounce them as a source of discrimination.…”

Network latency clustering for detector placement on macroscopical prewarning by HE Hui, HU Ming-zeng, YUN Xiao-chun, ZHANG Hong-li

“…Research on the network-based and distributed intrusion detection was aroused by the burst-outs of large-scale security events.How to place detection instruments was the key to the detections.The problem of detector placement was turned to that of the clustering of topology graph.A novel bidirectional hierarchical clustering algorithm was put forward,which decreased the amount of result clusters by integration of initial marker selection method based on node out-degree.The simulation results demonstrates that our clustering approaches effectively identify clusters and been employed in the measured real network of the backbone.…”

Symbol rate estimation of PSK signal based on PLL and wavelet transform by Nan XIA, Tian-shuang QIU, Jing-chun LI

“…An improved algorithm for symbol rate estimation based on wavelet transform was proposed.The PLL based phase adaptive tracking approach was applied to synchronize the phase between the receiver and the itter and extract the signal envelope.The symbol rate was estimated from the wavelet transform magnitudes of the base-band signal.The improved algorithm effectively solved the problem on the result of estimation suffering from initial phases and noise occurred in the classical Chan’s algorithm.Simulation results verify that the novel algorithm is efficient and superior to the existing algorithms.…”

Design and study of ultra-wideband folded loop antennas by LV Wen-jun, ZHU Hong-bo

“…Design of a novel ultra-wideband folded loop antenna was proposed.It was fed by coplanar waveguide and can be easily integrated with other microwave circuits.By introducing a pentagonal folded loop,the bandwidth of the an-tenna is improved twice than that of conventional folded loop antenna.Parametric study is carried out numerically by us-ing EM simulators.Based on numerical results,the antenna is also studied experimentally.As can be seen,an operation bandwidth of over 4.75:1 is obtained.The presented antenna may be practical for ultra-wideband applications.…”
