Integrated Architecture and Application Assumption of Earth-Space Communication and Remote Sensing Combination by Wenbo SU, Chi ZHANG, Niwei WANG, Zhichao QIN

“…Remote sensing systems are important means of space-based Earth observation, due to issues such as delayed measurement and control commands, data transmission, data processing, and product distribution in the ＆quot;collection-processing-distribution＆quot; process, it is difficult to effectively achieve real-time intelligent remote sensing application services that cover all day, all weather, and the world.The combination of low earth orbit communication and remote sensing satellite constellations is an effective way to solve service delay and separate control problems in existing systems.It summarized the current situation of communication and remote sensing integration over the world, and then imagined the architecture, development stages, and service modes of the integration of communication and remote sensing.Finally, key technologies under the communication and remote sensing integration architecture were proposed, and the application process of communication and remote sensing integration used typical application scenarios were explored.…”

MAIN STAGES OF RUSSIAN INFLATION: THEIR CHARACTERISTICS AND FEATURES by I. N. Primyshev

“…The relevance of scientific research on the nature and specifics of inflationary processes in domestic economic thought, starting in the 1990s of the twentieth century, is associated with the peculiarities and difficulties of the development of the Russian economy in the transition from a command-and-control economy to a market economy. In this study, the author analyses inflation over a thirty-year period from the early 1990s of the twentieth century to the present. …”

Investigation of Multi-Output Single-Switch Forward Converter in Terms of Cross-Regulation Using Weighted Control Method by Salih Dindar, Fırat Hardalac, Ertugrul Aksoy, Kubilay Ayturan

“…In a single-switch forward converter, which is a type of single-input multiple-output (SIMO) DC–DC converter, voltage changes are observed at the outputs due to the current passing through the diodes, the difficulty of winding the transformer in full and half windings, differences in resistance in the windings, the presence of leakage inductance and the existence of common inductance between the windings. These voltage changes are undesirable, and cross-regulation techniques have been developed to keep the outputs at the desired value. …”

Principal component analysis of time delay in large IP network by Xuan WEI, Xiaoying HUANG

“…Network time delay is one of the key indexes to evaluate network performance.Principal component analysis (PCA) is a kind of multivariable analysis and declination algorithm commonly used in the field of data mining.Based on PCA analysis of time delay in large IP networks, aiming to find out the deep reason of time delay and the interdependencies among nodes of the network, a scientific and reasonable network time delay evaluation system was built, and effective suggestions for IP network construction and optimization were finally got.The off-line analysis of the historical network delay is only a preliminary application of the PCA.In the future, PCA can be applied to the real-time on-line monitoring and analysis of the network performance, such as network traffic, network delay, network packet loss, etc., in combination with the network topology, current network traffic direction, routing, distance and other related factors, thus the efficiency and quality of network operations can be further improved.…”

Internet cross-domain end-to-end quality monitoring and trouble location scheme by Yongming YAN, Bing CHEN, Wenjie XU

“…With the rapid development of internet,the internet content providers needmuch better quality of internet.They usually need to deploy their applications in the internet data centers all oveRthe country due to their business requirements.Users usually cross domain to access in their data centers.So internet content providers have high level of requirements for cross-domain internet quality.It is very important for internet service providers to establish amonitoring system which couldmonitor end-to-end cross-domain internet quality and locate the troubles of network out of autonomous systems rapidly.The commonly used networkmonitoring technology and the hash algorithm in equal-costmultipath routing were analyzed.A solution of using Hash algorithm to realize full traversal of network paths andmonitor end-to-end cross-domain internet quality,was presented.Some suggestions were also given foRtrouble location scheme.…”
