Optimization of the Loess Plateau of the China Ecological Network Pattern Based on a PLUS Model by Xiaoyan Luo, Xun Luo, Xianhua Yang, Jian Wang, Jialing Liao, Yu He, Ye Du, Ye Yang

“…The results indicate the following: (1) By 2030, the spatial pattern of ecological network under the four scenarios will be concentrated in the east and west, in the north and south, and the middle of the Loess Plateau. (2) The change of land use pattern driven by a single policy has a trade-off effect on the ecological network and is prone to form the phenomenon of “ecological increase–functional lag”. (3) The regional ecological network layout of “four cores, multiple corridors and multiple sources” was proposed. …”

Routing algorithm for MPLS traffic engineering in satellite network by XIAO Fu1, SUN Li-juan1, YE Xiao-guo1, WANG Ru-chuan1

“…With regard to long transmission delay and dynamic topology characters in satellite network,a novel routing algorithm was proposed in multi-protocol label switching satellite network.The algorithm uses the prior knowledge of source-destination pairs,and link propagation delay is also considered.Based on time-varying topology snapshot of satellite network,initial link weight is defined as function of transmission delay and residual bandwidth.Both current request and future requests are in account when calculate critical degree.Thus traffic engineering is realized by link weight dynamic adjustment and critical links extension loaded,which guarantee resource utilized better.Simulation results demonstrate the algorithm performs better in terms of request reject ratio,total available flow,average hop and transmission delay of least interference paths.…”
