DEMATEL Method for Contradiction Network Analyzing by Liu Shang, Hu Ji, Cao Zhongliang, Guo Jianhua, Wang Zhongshuang

“…In the process of innovation design,the contradiction network are often constructed as more than one contradiction which interact each other emerge from analyzing step of initial problem situation.It is the key problem for innovation design that how to select important contradiction,root cause contradiction and core contradiction correctly from contradiction network.As the result of analyzing on contradiction interaction pattern and strategy of contradiction network decomposing,oriented graph is used to expressed the interaction between contradictions in the network of contradiction,and the equation to get the cause degree of contradiction to others is built,then the selecting method of important contradiction,root cause contradictions and core contradictions based on DEMATEL is proposed,which involves the calculation of the important weight,causes degree and centers degree of a contradiction.Finally,a case study of reversing winch is used to verify that the proposal method is correct.…”

Dynamic load balancing algorithm based on queuing theory comprehensive index evaluation by Wenbo WANG, Qingwei YE, Yu ZHOU, Zhihua LU

“…Internet communication,computer cluster and cloud environment have complex and dynamic characteristics,which can cause load imbalance easily,reduce the service efficiency and increase the energy consumption.Therefore,the load balancing technology becomes the focus of research.The existing load balancing strategy uses the occupancy of CPU,memories,processes to estimate the current load of each server.But it is hard to guarantee its accuracy.Aiming at this problem,a dynamic load balancing algorithm based on queuing theory comprehensive index evaluation was proposed.Firstly,queuing theory model was introduced to estimate the real-time load of each server,and then the tasks of input queue was distributed to each server separately according to the load comprehensive index of each server.Experimental results show that this method can balance the load of each server effectively and reduce the average waiting time of the task requests,which is of great application value.…”
