Test case minimizing based on combination chaos genetic algorithm by Qing SHEN, Yunliang JIANG, Zhangguo SHEN, Jungang LOU

“…Test case minimizing is one of the most important research fields in software testing.Uniformly distributed Chebyshev and Logistic chaos sequence were introduced in the selection，crossover and mutation of genetic algorithm.Chaos disturbance was also added in genetic testing suite to address the common problems of weak ability in local search and premature convergence，thus to optimize the test result.Experiments were conducted in randomly generated test suites and Siemens test suites.Comparisons were also made with classical methods regard to the scale of production of test suite and the execution time of the algorithms.The results of the experiment indicate that based on the same execution time of the algorithms，a smaller scale test suite can be produced by introducing chaotic sequence in genetic testing suite selection.…”

Genetics and Epigenetics of Parkinson's Disease by Fabio Coppedè

“…Other genes at non-PARK loci (MAPT, SCA1, SCA2, spatacsin, POLG1) cause syndromes with parkinsonism as one of the symptoms. The majority of PD cases are however sporadic “idiopathic” forms, and the recent application of genome-wide screening revealed almost 20 genes that might contribute to disease risk. …”

Minimum Cost Flow Model and Algorithm of Virtual Network Embedding by Xiaohua Chen, Chunzhi Li, Liangyu Chen, Zhenbing Zeng

“…The dynamic process of network virtualization was studied,and the inversion phenomenon that the revenue did not rely on embedding cost was discovered.Then minimum cost flow model and algorithms of virtual network embedding which fit for creating virtual network online on the large-scale substrate network were proposed.Simulation results reveal that the proposed algorithms can improve virtual network acceptance ratio and system revenue,and significantly reduce the time complexity of multi-path virtual link embedding algorithm which ensures real-time performance of online virtual network embedding.The inversion phenomenon also occurs in the simulation.…”
