Complexity Analysis on the Supply Chain of Brand Enterprise Countermeasures against Imitation Threats by Abudureheman Kadeer, Mingyu Zhao, Mengzhe Li

“…The conclusions are as follows: (1) The stable scope of the brand enterprise price adjustment enlarges with the increase of the adjustment parameters of new product quality and imitation price. (2) The attraction domain of the initial decisions of the counterfeit enterprise decreases when the brand enterprise makes dynamic decisions on new product quality; a higher new product quality adjustment parameter can reduce the imitation ability of the counterfeit enterprise. (3) With the growth of the degree of substitution between new products and existing products, the quality of new products is improved, the output of existing products is reduced, and the counterfeit enterprise withdraws from the market if the degree of substitution between existing products and imitations is high. (4) The dynamic system can suppress chaos and restore stability by using the delay feedback control method. …”

Effetto delle dimensioni del cordone di saldatura sulla resistenza a fatica dei giunti a croce by B. Atzori, B. Rossi, G. Demelio

“…Le normative di tipo tecnologico suggeriscono in genere di prevedere uno spessore del cordone di saldatura inferiore al minimo spessore della lamiera da collegare, mentre le normative di tipo strutturale non prevedono una dipendenza della resistenza del giunto, sia statica che a fatica, dalle dimensioni del cordone di saldatura, a meno che queste non siano tanto ridotte da portare a rotture che si inneschino e si propaghino non più nella lamiera base ma nel cordone di saldatura. Scopo del presente lavoro è la verifica, teorica e sperimentale, della variazione della resistenza a fatica al variare del rapporto tra lo spessore del cordone di saldatura e quello minimo delle lamiere da saldare.…”

Using rule association to generate data collection policies by Pei CHEN, Fenghua LI, Zifu LI, Yunchuan GUO, Lin CHENG

“…Collecting security-related data of devices effectively is the foundation of analyzing network threats accurately.Existing data collection methods (full data collection, sampling based data collection and adaptive data collection) do not consider the validity of the collected data and their correlation, which will consume too much collection resources, resulting in low collection yield.To address this problem, considering the factors (relationship between node attributes, network topology relationship, threat status, node resource and node similarity) that impact collection costs and benefits, a rule association method to generate collection policies was designed.In the method, two types of association rules (inter-node association rules and inter-event association rules) were adopted to generate candidate data collection items and reduced the scope of data collection.Then, a multi-objective program was designed to maximize collection benefits and minimize collection costs.Further, a genetic algorithm was designed to solve this program.Proposed method was compared with existing data collection methods.The experimental results show that the number of the collected data records of proposed method is 1 000~3 000 less than that of others per 12 hours, and the validity of the collected data of proposed method is about 4%~10% higher than others, which proves the effectiveness of the proposed method.…”
