Increasing eccentric contraction duration enhances resistance exercise‐induced inhibitory control improvement while reducing the exertion perception: A pilot study in young men by Kento Dora, Takeshi Hashimoto, I. Wayan Yuuki, Su Yang, Kousei Tachi, Kaito Hashimoto, Shumpei Fujie, Motoyuki Iemitsu, Shigehiko Ogoh

“…Compared with concentric (CON) contractions, eccentric (ECC) contractions have greater brain activation related to cognitive functions while decreasing subjective perception. Therefore, we examined whether LRST with a longer duration of ECC contraction (ECC‐LRST) could further enhance exercise‐induced IC improvement while reducing the subjective perception, compared with traditional LRST. …”

Port address overloading based packet forwarding verification in SDN by Ping WU, Chaowen CHANG, Yingying MA

“…Aiming at the problem that the existing forwarding verification mechanisms in software-defined networking (SDN) incur significant communication overhead caused by embedding additional packet fields, a packet forwarding verification mechanism based on port address overloading was proposed, which key idea was the ingress switch implemented port address overloading by reconstructing port and address of packet, downstream switches executed packet probabilistic verification based on overloading port address, and the controller acquired valid and invalid packet statistics of node verification in the path and localized anomaly.Anomaly detection threshold of malicious injecting and dropping packets was presented by theoretical analysis.Finally, the proposed scheme was implemented and evaluated.Experiments demonstrate the proposed scheme achieves efficient forwarding and effective anomaly localization with less than 10% of additional forwarding delays and less than 8% of throughput degradation.…”
