Network queue scheduling algorithm based on self-similar traffic level grading prediction by Debin WEI, Ting SHEN, Li YANG, Yaowen QI

“…Self-similarity characteristic of network traffic will lead to the continuous burstness of data in the network.In order to effectively reduce the queue delay and packet loss rate caused by network traffic burst,improve the transmission capacity of different priority services,and guarantee the service quality requirements,a queue scheduling algorithm P-DWRR based on the self-similarity of network traffic was proposed.A dynamic weight allocation method and a service quantum update method based on the self-similar traffic level grading prediction results were designed,and the service order of the queue according was determined to the service priority and queue waiting time,so as to reduce the queuing delay and packet loss rate.The simulation results show that the P-DWRR algorithm can reduce the queueing delay,delay jitter and packet loss rate on the basis of satisfying the different service priority requirements of the network,and its performance is better than that of DWRR and VDWRR.…”

Genres of old Serbian literature in novels of the second half of the 20th century: On the example of the novels: 'Nišči' - Vidosav Stevanović, 'Hazardski rečnik' - Milorad Pavić an... by Furtula Katarina N.

“…The novels "Nišči", "Hazarski rečnik" and "Opsada crkve Svetog Spasa" not only establish a critical relationship with the time they describe but also critically examine the structure of the novel itself. Distortion and deformation are consequences of the loss of order based on assured salvation, which the Christian world of the Middle Ages implied. …”

Multi-sensing node convolution fusion identity recognition algorithm for radio digital twin by Guofeng WEI, Guoru DING, Yutao JIAO, Yitao XU, Daoxing GUO, Peng TANG

“…Electromagnetic space is an important link to empower and coordinate sea, land, air, space and network.Electromagnetic target recognition provides important radio target identity information for the twin construction of electromagnetic space, so that it can describe and depict the identity situation of electromagnetic targets in digital space.However, a single sensing node is vulnerable to interference, and its recognition performance is limited.Wrong recognition results will provide radio digital twin with conflicting identity information.Therefore, based on the requirements of radio digital twin in electromagnetic space, a radio target recognition framework for radio digital twin was constructed and a multi-sensing node convolution neural network individual identity fusion recognition algorithm was proposed.Compared with the nearest single sensing node, the recognition performance is improved by 6.29% by deploying the multi-node recognition network in the actual scene, which provides more accurate individual identity information.…”
