Reconfigurable buffer mechanism in switch fabric design by Hui-qun HUANG, Qin-rang LIU, You-jun BU, Feng-yu ZHANG

“…Current research focused on the theoretic buffer size of routers.The reconfigurable buffer tried to improve the buffer utilization rate to optimize the system performance based on the on-demand design of the reconfigurable system.In fact,for current switching fabrics with fixed buffers,cell loss under burst traffics still could not be resolved at some ports despite abundant buffers were free.The reconfiguration mechanism was introduced into buffers,which broke the private occupancy of buffers by single ports and reconfigured buffers due to the real-time requirements of per port.Analysis and simulation results show that the reconfiguration mechanism could resolve the problem of resource consumption effectively,and improve the ultilization of buffers as well as save buffers with the same anti-burst performance.…”

New NOMA power allocation strategy by Yong CAO, Zhen YANG, You-hong FENG

“…Non-orthogonal multiple access(NOMA) has been widely used in the research of the fifth generation communication,due to the advantages of improving the spectrum efficiency and data rate.In order to guarantee the service of users,a new power allocation strategy was proposed to improve the fairness of users in the cell edge.According to the proportional fairness method,the goal was to maximize the proportionality fairness factor among the users with the least fairness in multiplexed users.The nonconvex objective function was transformed into convex function,and the optimal solution of problem was obtained by KKT optimal constraint condition.Simulation results show that the new NOMA-based power allocation strategy proposed outperforms the traditional orthogonal multiple access technology (OMA).…”

Research progress in the correlation between chronic stress and ovarian dysfunction by WEI Liutong, LAI Dongmei

“…Recent studies have shown that chronic stress affects the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovary axis directly or indirectly and leads to ovarian dysfunction-including excessive activation of primordial follicles, a reduction in preantral and preovulatory follicles, decline of oocyte quality, and granulosa cell apoptosis, through corticotropin-releasing hormone, corticosterone and cortisol secreted by the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, as well as epinephrine and norepinephrine released by the sympathetic-adrenal-medullary axis and sympathetic nervous system. …”

The Flow Pattern in Single and Multiple Submerged Channels with Gas Evolution at the Electrodes by A. Alexiadis, M. P. Dudukovic, P. Ramachandran, A. Cornell, J. Wanngård, A. Bokkers

“…This is due to the fact that in a single channel there is a higher accumulation of small bubbles and these can considerably affect the liquid velocity pattern which in turn may affect the performance of a cell. Since experimental work is often carried out in single channels, while industrial applications almost always involve multiple channels, this study provides insight into the factors that affect the flow pattern in each situation and establishes the basis for relating the behavior of single-and multiple-channel devices.…”
