L’écologie en plus. Des justifications environnementales de la non-procréation by Clarisse Veaux, Sébastien Roux

“…However, our interviews also demonstrate that the ecology, if present, is a secondary ethical argument that legitimizes - or even ennobles – a previous desire for a childfree life. By giving voice to the arguments of those individuals, notably women, who choose not to have children for ecological reasons, the article shows that their concern, less than a shared trend, is in fact inscribed in a singular context where the will not to procreate remains tainted by a powerful stigma, calling for justification and avoidance strategies.…”

Waveform interpolation speech coding algorithm at 2.4kbit/s based on wavelet transform by WANG Jing, KUANG Jing-ming, XIE Xiang

“…A waveform interpolation speech coding algorithm at 2.4kbit/s based on wavelet transform was proposed,in which characteristic waveform decomposition and reconstruction is processed using biorthogonal wavelet filters.At the encoder,the alignment operation was removed and the amplitude spectrum is decomposed without phase spectrum.Because of the wavelet compression,only the amplitude spectrum of last layer is transmitted.At the decoder,different scale space is reconstructed separately and random or fixed phase was combined to the spectrum based on voice degree at the last.Additionally,based on the time-variable feature of speech,voiced degree flag of each subframe was introduced to indicate the spectrum selection and quantization.Subjective R-A/B listening tests indicated that the synthesis speech quality of the 2.4kbit/s WT-CWI coding algorithm is better than that of standard 2.4kbit/s MELP coder and FS1016 4.8kbit/s CELP coder and is better than traditional 3.8kbit/s CWI coder.…”

Self-organized CAC mechanism adopting for self-similarity service in wireless network by Lei FENG, Wen-jing LI, Xue-song QIU

“…To improve the access capacity in wireless network with the QoS ensuring,the service similarity in the wireless network was researched,and the service bandwidth was calal with similarity and QoS parameters.Then an SS-CAC (self-organized based on network similarity call admission control) mechanism based on the service bandwidth optimization was introduced to lower the system bandwidth utilization and service rejection probability.And the novel mechanism was achieved and simulated.Compared with traditional CAC,the results of simulation show the performance of SS-CAC mechanism can not only ensure the quality of the voice service but also reduce the bandwidth utilization of the data service by 2.69%.In addition,it can also reduce the call rejection ratio and call drop ratio by 0.95% and 2.81% respectively in the case of high cell load.…”
