Differentiated and negotiable mechanism for data communication by Wenlong KOU, Fenghua LI, Xiuze DONG, Xiaogang CAO, Kui GENG, Qing LI

“…In view of the massive and differentiated computing units and terminal devices in the cloud environment and the Internet of things, the differences in hardware resources and computing capabilities posed new challenges to high reliability and high performance data communication, a data communication mechanism supporting differentiation and negotiation was proposed.A parameters negotiation method was proposed, and parameters were negotiated by the sender according to the difference of the receiver capability to achieve differentiated and negotiable data communication.A retransmission feedback mechanism was designed, and the transmission rate was dynamically adjusted and the data was retransmitted based on the data reception feedback of the receiver by the sender to improve communication efficiency and reliability.The experimental results show that the proposed mechanism can perform dynamic adaptive, efficient and parallel communication according to the difference of the receiver capability.…”

As memórias do que aconteceu: religiosidade, tecnologias e traduções nos meios populares by José Rogério Lopes, André Luiz da Silva, Régis de Toledo Souza

“…The analysis of these references considers two possibilities of objectification: the resulting projections of the subjects on goods and objects, unveiled since the interaction processes laid down in religious events, and another on the way designed for the goods and objects, that extrapolate their relational values when moving mediations that operate to objectifications in another order of interactions, or produce hybridisms between orders of different interactions. …”

The Artificial Mountain: a New Form of “Artialization” of Nature? by Claire Portal

“…From a corpus of about forty realizations, real and imaginary, this paper studies how the designers of artificial mountains, mainly architects, are inspired by landscape models to introduce this mountainous nature into cities, but also how they are reinventing the idea of “the mountain”, by introducing new aesthetics and new features into renewed urban contexts.…”

Buffer-aided cooperative NOMA with power transfer by Long YANG, Li ZHAO, Yuchen ZHOU, Bingtao HE, Jian CHEN

“…To improve the throughput of multiuser simultaneous wireless information and power transfer systems, a buffer-aided cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access scheme with power transfer was designed to maximize the average throughput under the constraints of average/peak power, user’s rate, and the buffer stability.To reduce the optimization complexity, the Lyapunov’s method was introduced to convert the long-term average optimization problem into a series of time-discrete subproblems, and an adaptive transmission and resource allocation optimization algorithm was proposed, where the working mode, the user scheduling and the power allocation were dynamically optimized according to the time-varying channel/buffer state.Simulation results demonstrate that compared with the existing schemes, the proposed scheme can significantly enhance the average throughput whilst achieving the tradeoff between the delay and throughput.…”

Delay-aware cross-layer optimization method for FANET by Shaojie WEN, Chuanhe HUANG

“…An asynchronous distributed cross-layer optimization (ADCO) method was proposed to solve the problem of jointly considering real-time routing,rate allocation and power control in FANET (flying ad hoc network).And a delay-constrained cross-layer optimization framework was designed to formally represent proposed problem.Then Lagrangian relaxation and dual decomposition methods was used to divide joint optimization problem into several sub-problems.ADCO allowed each relay node to perform the optimization operation for different sub-problems with local information,and the relay nodes could update the dual variables based on asynchronous update mechanism.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the network performance effectively in terms of energy efficiency,packet timeout ratio and network throughput.…”

Deep factorization machine model based on attention capsule by Yiran GU, Zhupeng YAO, Haigen YANG

“…Aiming at the problems of single feature combination of recommendation model, resolution of a large amount of valuable feature information, and over-fitting in deep learning, a new attentional scoring mechanism called attention capsule was designed, and a deep factorization machine model based on attention capsule was proposed.Users’ historical clicking and candidate items were processed through weight calculation based on the DeepFM model, reducing the impact of irrelevant features on the model, and the differential impact of different historical behaviors on users’ interests was fully explored.The adaptive regularization formulation was added to the training, which effectively reduced over-fitting without affecting the training speed.The comparison test on two public data sets shows that the proposed model is significantly enhanced in loss function and GAUC compared to other models.…”
