Optimized Heat Distributions for Laser-Assisted Forming by Ferdinand Bammer

“…The findings are demonstrated on a statically determined quasi 1D-problem, namely, 3-point-bending, and showed for a certain material law (modelling a dual phase steel of type DP1000) that the concentration of heat on the central line of the forming area is counter-productive and that the necessary energy can be significantly reduced with a well-defined heating strategy. Furthermore, we discuss how to extend the analysis to more complex problems which can be treated only numerically.…”

Selective Antibiotic Treatment for Dairy Cow Mastitis by Kathryn Merriman, Fiona Maunsell, Corwin Nelson, Albert De Vries

“…A selective treatment approach can be more effective. This two-step strategy involves first identifying the pathogen, then deciding on a treatment — this would decrease the use of antimicrobials as well as treatment-associated costs for the farmer. …”

Multi-attribute aware scheduling for inter-datacenter bulk transfers by Yang-yang LI, Hong-bo WANG, Peng ZHANG, Jian-kang DONG, Shi-duan CHENG

“…A multi-attribute decision making method to schedule inter-datacenter bulk data was proposed.First,hierarchical analysis was used to analyze the dominant relationship among attributes.Based on the relative weights of attributes which were calculated via information entropy,the evaluation to each intermediate data center was provided.Then the multi-attribute aware scheduling problem was modeled on a time expanded graph and formulated as a minimal cost flow problem.Finally,the scheme with general store-and-forward mechanism and single attribute based approach under several different simulation settings was compared.The results demonstrate that our strategy can take multiple attributes into consideration,and can find the bulk transfer route with the best integrated evaluation.…”

Le rôle du mode de régulation politique états-unien dans le déclenchement de la crise économique by Éric Lahille

“…The “neo-conservative approach”, characterized by a particular form of neoliberalism coupled with the quest for imperial hegemony, has thus changed institutional arrangements and socio-economic strategy. This transformation in the nature of public policy and the “autonomization” of the economic sphere is in line with new political alliances between social groups which have, thus, led to a “major crisis” illustrating the inherent internal contradictions in American political regulation.…”

Multi-microgrid marketized transaction models and algorithms based on smart contracts by Fen LI, Jin LI, Songqi WU, Senlin ZHANG, Yueming LU

“…Facing the problems of high cost,low efficiency and low transparency existing in the traditional transmission and distribution networks under the centralized management,and the demand for maximizing the interests of all players in the multi-microgrid system,a fair bidding rule and multi-objective dynamic planning model were established.Using blockchain trusted ledger and smart contract technology,a decentralized,transparent,open and information symmetrical market-oriented transaction model was established to ensure the interests of all parties.The simulation results show that the model allocation strategy can effectively balance the interests of market participants,and verify the applicability and effectiveness of the bidding rules in multi microgrid market-oriented transaction.…”

Forward Position Solution and Singularity Analysis of a 3SPS+1PS Bionic Parallel Manipulator by Li Yang, Cheng Gang, Feng Lanlan

“…In order to overcome the defects of traditional serial hip joint testing machine on high speed,complex motion simulation and large dynamic loading,aparallel hip joint testing machine with a3SPS+1PS spatial parallel manipulator as the core module is developed.The complicated forward position solution and the singularity are significant difficulties of its application.An analytical model of forward position analysis is built with the coordinates of hinge points on the moving platform and a univariate polynomial equation of higher degree is obtained,proving that there exist 8forward solution for a single input at most.The singular status of the testing machine under required motions is investigated according to the Jacobian matrix.The two singular points are proved to be the forward singularities caused by the overlaps of the forward position solution.Then the corresponding avoidance strategy is given.…”

Energy efficiency analysis of heterogeneous cellular network based on Thomas cluster process by Minglu JIN, Nan GUO

“…In the existing heterogeneous cellular networks (HCN),the rapid increasing of small cells caused a problem that the hotspots where users were clustered generated a huge amount of energy consumption.To improve the energy efficiency of the networks,the spatial model was researched.The users in hotspots in the HCN were modeled as the Thomas cluster process,combined with the max mean bias received signal power (max-BRP) strategy to achieve base station load balancing,and the user’s association probability,coverage probability and the network’s energy efficiency were derived using tool from stochastic geometry.The simulation shows that the derived formulas are accurate,and the network’s energy efficiency can be greatly improved by setting appropriate bias factors.…”

Privacy protection key distribution protocol for edge computing by Jian SHEN, Tianqi ZHOU, Chen WANG, Huijie YANG

“…Aiming at the privacy protection problem in the multi-application scenarios of edge computing, two policy-based key distribution protocols were proposed.The proposed protocols are based on the concept of constrained pseudo-random functions to achieve efficient and flexible policy selection.Specifically, based on the GGM pseudo-random number generator, the key distribution protocol with a prefix-predicate is constructed, which can effectively support lightweight and efficient key distribution.Moreover, based on the multilinear pairing, the key distribution protocol with a bit fixing predicate is constructed.This protocol can support flexible and fine-grained strategy selection and is suitable for dynamic and flexible multi-device scenarios in heterogeneous networks.Finally, the security proof of the proposed protocols is presented.…”

MAXGDDP:decision data release with differential privacy by Jibin FU, Xiaojian ZHANG, Liping DING

“…Specialization-based private decision data release has attracted considerable research attention in recent years.The relation among hierarchical node,taxonomy tree,and budget allocation directly constrains the accuracy of data release and classification.Most existing methods based on hierarchical specialization cannot efficiently address the above problems.An effective method was proposed,called MAXGDDP to publish decision data with specialization.MAXGDDP employed MAX index attribute selection algorithm to select the highlight concept for furthering specialization in each hierarchy.Besides,for making more rational use of privacy budget,MAXGDDP relied on geometric strategy to allocate the privacy budget in each hierarchy.Compared with existing methods such as DiffGen on the real datasets,MAXGDDP outperforms its competitors,achieves data privacy and the better result of classification simultaneously.…”
