Scalable geometric routing scheme based on location-independent names by Yanbin SUN, Yu ZHANG, Hongli ZHANG, Binxing FANG

“…Name-based routing has become one of the hot topics in future network.However,due to the sustained growth of the size of nodes and information,the scalability issue is becoming one of the bottlenecks of name-based routing.As a new type of scalable routing,geometric routing provides both scalable routing tables and low routing paths,but it is difficult to support name-based routing.A universal scalable geometric routing scheme based on location-independent names（GRIN）was proposed.GRIN implemented a hybrid geometric routing（HGR）combining greedy routing with source routing,introduced a distributed name resolution using 2-level sloppy groups.Then the state and the path stretch upper bound of GRIN were analyzed.The simulation results show that GRIN guarantees scalability,low stretch and reliability.It outperformanced other similar routing schemes.…”

Performance analysis and improvement of link adaptation techniques in TDD-HSDPA/SA system by CHEN Shu-ping, DU Jiu-hui, WANG Wen-bo

“…The wireless channel fluctuation resulted from smart antennas in TDD-HSDPA/SA（time division duplex-high speed downlink packet access /smart antennas）system,which caused traditional link adaptation technologies invalid,was theoretically investigated.Two kinds of novel link adaptation schemes were proposed to deal with this issue.A dynamic system level simulator was established to evaluate the performances of the two schemes.Simulation results indicate that both of them have great improvement in system residual BLER and have certain system throughput gain.The first one suits for the hybrid networking case of TDD and FDD（frequency division duplex）mode,while the second one can serve the case of alone TDD networking.…”

Simulation-based learning and digital tools. A trial for Pharmacy Services by Fabrizio Bracco, Maria Carola Morozzo della Rocca, Federica Delprino, Silvia Pregaglia

“… This paper focuses, amidst a collective desire to re-appropriate sociality and a focus on the use of digital and ‘phygital’ practices to promote inclusion and diminish the human impact on the planet, on the choice of hybrid, physical or virtual modes of interaction as a function of punctual rather than generalised needs to foster a conscious and sustained digital transition in university education. …”

Uncertain Linguistic Aggregation Distance Measures and Their Application to Group Decision Making by Wei Li, Shouzhen Zeng

“…We develop some uncertain linguistic aggregation distance measures called the uncertain linguistic weighted distance (ULWD) measure, the uncertain linguistic ordered weighted distance (ULOWD) measure, and the uncertain linguistic hybrid weighted distance (ULHWD) measure. We study some of their characteristic, and we prove that the ULWD and the ULOWD are special cases of the ULHWD measure. …”
