Module Configuration of Rail Freight Transportation with Both Customer Segmentation and Product Family Genealogy in China by Weiya Chen, Shiying Tong, Ziyue Yuan, Xiaoping Fang

“…The Chinese government is actively restructuring transportation to shift towards more sustainable rail freight transportation (RFT); however, there is still a lack of more systematic optimization in the whole production chain. This study develops a dual-focus modular configuration approach to explore the integration of customer demand and the production chain to achieve more sustainable operations in RFT. …”

QoE-aware video distribution mechanism in FiWi by Ruyan WANG, Yan YANG, Dapeng WU

“…The mismatch of transmission ability causes the discontinuous transmission of video services in fiber-wireless access network,aimed at this problem,an QoE-aware video distribution mechanism was proposed.According to the structural characteristics of fiber-wireless access network,link state information and scalable video coding structure was considered,a QoE evaluation mode was established,and the particle swarm optimization algorithm was used to select optimal video transmission rate.Then the node transmission capacity and the node matching degree was analyzed,transmission path for the services was selected,so as to ensure the reliable transmission of services.The results show that the proposed mechanism can effectively improve the utilization rate of network resources and reduce network congestion while improving the quality of the user experience.…”
