Viscosity Solution of Mean-Variance Portfolio Selection of a Jump Markov Process with No-Shorting Constraints by Moussa Kounta

“…We consider the so-called mean-variance portfolio selection problem in continuous time under the constraint that the short-selling of stocks is prohibited where all the market coefficients are random processes. In this situation the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation of the value function of the auxiliary problem becomes a coupled system of backward stochastic partial differential equation. …”

Research on algorithm for raster map multi-level sharing based on region incrementing color visual cryptography by Liguo FANG, Zhengxin FU, Hao HU, Gang SHEN, Bin YU

“…In view of the characteristics of raster map,important data of the map were divided into different map layers by using the idea of map segmentation.A regional incremental color visual cryptographic scheme for raster map sharing was designed,and a model based on this scheme was proposed.At the same time,the specific application process was given.In order to solve the problem of large pixel expansibility and poor visual effect of image recovery in traditional regional incremental visual cryptography scheme,random numbers and the access structure optimization were used.Construction of the method was simple and the additional overhead of generating and saving the encryption matrix was avoided.The experimental results show that the scheme can achieve multilevel raster map sharing with the map’s perfect recovery,meanwhile the extension of the scheme pixel is greatly reduced.…”

Hybrid channel allocation strategy with group switching and performance evaluation in cognitive radio network by Shun-fu JIN, Hong-ting XIE, Yuan ZHAO

“…Considering the non-real-time traffic in cognitive radio networks and two groups of licensed channels,com-bing the methods of random back-off and control center schedule,a novel hybrid channe allocation strategy with channel group switching mechanism was proposed.Taking into account the total number of the cognitive packets and the numbers of the primary packets on each group channels,a three-dimensional Markov model was constructed,some cogniti user measures in terms of the blocking ratio,the packet loss ratio and the average delay were derived accordingly.Numerical results with analysis and simulation show that,as the back-off time changes,a tradeoff exists between different perfor-mance measures.Therefore,by minimizing the system cost,the back-off time can be optimized.…”
