Efficient Coded-Block Delivery and Caching in Information-Centric Networking by Yan Liu, Jun Cai, Huimin Zhao, Shunzheng Yu, JianLiang Ruan, Hua Lu

“…Incorporating network coding into ICN can offer several benefits, but a consumer may receive the same coded block from multiple content routers since the coded block may be cached by any of the content routers on its forwarding path. In this paper, we introduce a request-specific coded-block scheme to avoid linear dependency of blocks that are utilizing in-network caching. …”

STUDIES ON THE GROUND RESPONSES OF CIRCULAR OUT-OF-PLANE OSCILLATORY FOCUS IN HALF-SPACE by WANG Ping

“…In this paper,the dynamic response problem of the out-of-plane harmonic circular oscillatory focus in the half-space was studied,at first,imaginary focus was used to give the displacement wave functions which can satisfy the stress-free boundary of the half-space,and the stress conditions on the boundary of the circular oscillatory focus was utilized to obtain the non-linear equation of the unknown coefficients,and the Graf addition formula and Fourier series expansion were used to obtain an infinite linear equations,and was solved with the finite truncation method with enough computation precision,at last,the displacement and the stress in the media can be obtained. …”
