Evolution, Characteristics and Inspirations of Management Zoning for National Parks in the United States by Zhenwei ZHANG, Hanyue XIAO, Yankang MAO

“…In addition, this research analyzes the nine characteristics of the management zoning for national parks in the United States: 1) Functional attribute of zoning — transform from functional zoning to comprehensive control zoning; 2) functional characteristics of zoning — most zones are similar to China’s main functional zone, rather than the restricted red line zone; 3) functional goal of zoning — strive to achieve the dual balance of “protection − utilization”; 4) zoning policies are of flexibility and complete; 5) zoning is based on the dynamic adaptive management theory; 6) zoning should be supported by a more comprehensive and systematic policy system; 7) zoning must be based on a scientific and rigorous policy system; 8) different designation areas and autonomous zoning composed its rigid and flexible frame; 9) zoning may be deduced through the comparison of multiple scenaro.ConclusionChina’s national park zoning should be regarded as a technical method relying on management rules, for which the system development should be strengthened. …”

Low error floor LT coding algorithm for unequal error protection by Xin SONG, Shuyan NI, Zhe ZHANG, Yurong LIAO, Tuofeng LEI

“…There is an important application scenario in wireless data transmission, namely unequal error protection (UEP) data transmission. As the first achievable rateless code,the rateless LT code can be conveniently used in conjunction with the UEP algorithm to realize adaptive data transmission.However,the conventional UEP-LT code algorithm has problems such as high error floor and poor convergence performance in the additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN)channel.Therefore,an improved systematic UEP-LT coding scheme is designed in this paper. …”
