Travailler au péril de sa santé by Lucie Goussard

“…Finally, it showed how an activity that would primarily seem to engage cognitive and intellectual capacities also engaged the workers’ bodies. Their bodies bore the marks of the job’s difficulties, whether or not the constraints were physical or mental in nature, and forced the engineers to be aware of their pain when their limits were reached.…”

Tone mapping based on variational model in gradient domain by IZhi-hong X, Lan-fei ZHAO, Chi ZHANG, Zhong-min ZHANG

“…Due to the low dynamic range image which was generated by the gradient domain high dynamic range compression algorithm contain the artificial boundaries and local detail distortions,a variational model in gradient domain was proposed to improve the performance of the traditional algorithm.First of all,a variational model in gradient domain was introduced to compress dynamic range,meanwhile details and edges were preserved simultaneously.Afterwards,the rate of convergence was improved by introducing the ideology of Gibbs sampler.Eventually,the improved method was employed to obtain the optimal solution of the variational model.Experimental results demonstrate that proposed algorithm reduces the degree of artificial boundaries,meanwhile low dynamic range image represents excellent capacity of detail preservation.Moreover,the real-time performance is guaranteed by the improved steepest descent method.…”

A survey of mobile edge computing by Zishu LI, Renchao XIE, Li SUN, Tao HUANG

“…Mobile edge computing (MEC) technology integrates IT service environment and cloud computing technology at the edge of the network,improving the capacities of computing and storage of the edge of network,reducing network operation and service delivery delay and further enhancing the quality of experience (QoE) of users.Thus,MEC has attracted extensive attention and has been added in the 5G standard as a key technology.Firstly,the basic concept,reference architecture and technical advantages of MEC were introduced,and the current research state of MEC were summarized from three perspectives:academia,industry and standard setting.Then,the key enablers,application scenarios and specific deployment methods of MEC were introduced in detail.Finally,the existing problems of MEC,such as mobility,security and billing,as well as privacy protection,were discussed.…”

Trusted storage mechanism of distributed electric energy data based on blockchain by Jin LI, Songqi WU, Senlin ZHANG, Yueming LU

“…Facing the problems of central single point failure and malicious tampering in the centralized storage of electric energy data,a trusted storage mechanism including identity authentication,sensor data upload,IPFS storage,blockchain upload and access verification was proposed by building the inter satellite storage consortium blockchain (ISCB) of electric energy data based on the decentralized,tamper proof and highly expandable characteristics of blockchain.In view of the characteristics of electric energy data,such as wide source and large capacity,the blockchain technology was combined with the inter planetary file system (IPFS),and the data hash and query attributes returned by IPFS were saved on the chain,so as to effectively solve the problems of storage expansion and data tampering identification of electric energy data blockchain.…”

Cooperative MIMO transmission scheme for clustered ad hoc networks by Wen-jiang FENG, Wei ZHAO, Dong WANG

“…The potential of cooperative multiple-input multiple-output (CMIMO) transmission was explored.An according CMIMO transmission scheme was proposed for clustered ad hoc networks,including two critical aspects.The first was weighted cooperative node selection algorithm,which synthesized the asymmetrical bi-directional channel state information (CSI) between nodes,as well as the nodes’ residual energy and connectivity.Consequently,a set of optimal nodes was selected to develop the CMIMO system mentioned above.The second was the mechanism of establishing and maintaining virtual link between two virtual nodes.Simulation shows that the proposed CMIMO transmission scheme affords higher capacity against SISO,and the scheme with node selection is more energy-efficient than that without node selection for the 70% energy saved.…”

TDMA-based user scheduling policies for federated learning by Meixia TAO, Dong WANG, Rui SUN, Naifu ZHANG

“…To improve the communication efficiency in FL (federated learning), for the scenario with heterogeneous edge user's computing capacity and channel state, a class of time division multiple access (TDMA) based user scheduling policies were proposed for FL.The proposed policies aim to minimize the system delay in each round of model training subject to a given sample size constraint required for computing in each round.In addition, the convergence rate of the proposed scheduling algorithms was analyzed from a theoretical perspective to study the tradeoff between the convergence performance and the total system delay.The selection of the optimal batch size was further analyzed.Simulation results show that the convergence rate of the proposed algorithm is at least 30% higher than all the considered benchmarks.…”
