Network slice technology in 5G radio access network by Yi WANG, Fengya LUO, Guolin SUN

“…As a core content in SDN(software defined networking) technical framework,network slice has become a key technology in 5G network evolving processing.In the meanwhile,radio resource management should be focused on virtulized resource and sliced design in the RAN(radio access network),which is being confronted with much more ubiquitous access in 5G evolution.Based on the technical demand and function scenario definition for network slicing in RAN management,the states of the art in radio resource management were discussed,and moreover,the challenges in RAN design were also proposed,which would perform references for the future research.…”

Embedding With Preservation of Semantics of the Original Data by M. E. Vatkin, D. A. Vorobey, M. V. Yakovlev, M. G. Krivova

“…In this article, we propose a new approach for evaluating the properties of the obtained vectors of lower dimension, as well as a loss function based on this approach. The idea of the suggested loss function is to evaluate the quality of preserving the semantic structure in the embedding space, and to add that metric to loss function to save object relations in the embedding space and thus save more useful information about objects. …”

A raison d'être for the judicial process by MIQUEL JULIÀ-PIJOAN

“…In this paper, I will examine why the judicial process has been defined in this way; the reasons why speed is not desirable in the judicial function. To this end, I draw on the findings of cognitive psychology and, more specifically, on a set of theories that support the existence of two ways of processing information —two ways of knowing, believing, thinking, reasoning, and acting—: one fast and one slow; these are the dual processing theories. …”
