Low failure recovery cost controller placement strategy in software defined networks by Qi WU, Hongchang CHEN

“…The controller placement is an important problem in software defined networks.Existing researches pay more attention to deploying controller planning for node failures and ignore the fact that the link failure can also effect the network drastically.To solve the problem,a mathematical model for the controller placement that plans ahead for the link failures to avoid a drastic increase failure recovery cost was proposed.To solve the model,an algorithm based on simulated annealing was designed.The simulation results show that the proposed model and algorithm can improve the robustness of the network.The maximum failure recovery cost is significantly reduced when a link falls in failures.…”

Dynamic Modeling and Nonlinear Vibration Research of the Rotary Cutting Mechanism Based on Bond Graphs by Zhao Jiayi, Gao Yiyang, Zhao Changzhen, Rao Xiaobo, Ding Shunliang, Gao Jianshe

“…The results show that with the changes of the excitation amplitude, the excitation frequency and the elastic coefficient of the base, complex dynamic behaviors such as the period-doubling bifurcation, Hopf bifurcation, the chaos and the coexistence of attractors will exist in the system, resulting in vibration and sudden change of the motion that seriously reduce cutting quality. …”

AVANÇOS E RETROCESSOS NA POLÍTICA DE EDUCAÇÃO DE JOVENS E ADULTOS NO ESTADO DE MATO GROSSO/BRASIL (2008/2017) by Ivana Bognar, Márcia Santos Ferreira

“…As informações coletadas apontam para a descontinuidade da política de formação empreendida pelos governos que se sucederam no período em estudo, que não assumiram os CEJAs como integrantes de uma política de Estado de caráter emancipatório, optando por políticas de governo marcadas pelo “aligeiramento” dos processos de escolarização destinado aos sujeitos jovens, adultos e idosos. Atualmente, o estado de Mato Grosso vive um momento de retrocesso em relação à política pública que originou os CEJAs, uma vez que os Centros que continuam em funcionamento tiveram sua proposta pedagógica alterada, com destaque às preocupações financeiras em detrimento da qualidade da Educação de Jovens e Adultos promovida pelo Estado.   …”

Dites 33. Les huit incipit allemands de Bouvard et Pécuchet (1) by Loïc Windels

“…C’est par lui que le lecteur étranger entre dans « l’univers diégétique » de l’œuvre originelle, qu’il passe le seuil « où se marquent les codes d’écriture et le pacte de lecture », et c’est par lui que le traducteur essaie de reconduire les promesses du titre et de l’attente. De l’incipit source, l’incipit cible hérite ainsi son importance stratégique, mais il y ajoute les enjeux propres à son activité, puisque c’est encore par lui que s’inaugure cette diglossie ambiguë où la voix du traducteur continue – dans le discours « autoritaire » – de faire entendre sa petite musique, sa façon bien à lui de parler la langue d’un auteur, et d’un auteur qu’il introduit non seulement dans une langue, mais parmi les livres écrits en cette langue, voire parmi ceux qui, comme lui, y furent depuis versés. …”
