Ripple: a wireless token-passing protocol for multi-hop wireless mesh networks

This work presents a wireless token-passing protocol, named Ripple, for wireless mesh networks (WMNs). In contrast to existing random-access approaches, Ripple uses a decentralized controlled-access approach to protect nodes from unintentional packet collisions and maximize the spatial reuse. The performance of Ripple under an error-free wireless channel was investigated and the accuracy of the analysis was verified by simulation. Simulation results also indicated that Ripple achieved throughput, stability, and QoS enhancement than that of 802.11 DCF under a highly loaded situation.

多声道平衡及自动校准技术发展渐入佳境

1960-1970年那段时间被称为立体声的黄金岁月 ，那时要调试并建立一套立体声系统是非常简单的，整个系统只包括一对音箱，一个功放（纯A/V功放或附带收音功能）或纯粹的无线电接收器以及诸如唱片机这类型的音源即可，而设置过程更是简单，只需要连接很少的几根线，再将扬声器放到一个合适的位置就可以了。[编者按]     

An alternating technique for evaluating weight functions for 3-D surface flaws in finite solid bodies

An efficient method, based on the Schwarz–Neumann alternating technique, is presented for computing weight functions of a general solid (3-D as well as 2-D), with embedded or surface-flaw configurations. The total rate of change of the crack-opening displacements, due to simple perturbations of crack-dimension characteristics, is conveniently decomposed into the infinite-domain and boundary-correction parts. The former is determined from available analytical solutions of ideal-shaped cracks, whereas the latter is computed numerically by imposing nil boundary-traction requirements for the displacement field corresponding to the weight functions. Numerical examples, with solutions for 3-D weighted-average and local stress intensity factors, indicate that the proposed method is very accurate and efficient.     

从关联分析法看如何改善沥青抗老化性能

用灰色关联分析法研究了沥青抗老化性能与沥青化学组成之间的关联程度，结果表明，影响再生沥青性质的主要因素是沥青中的芳烃和胶质的含量。通过添加芳香组分能改善沥青四组分之间的配伍性，从而可以改善再生沥青的抗老化性能。并通过对再生剂进行富芳处理，验证了上述结论。

Study and design of step-index channel waveguide bends withlarge-angle and low-loss characteristics

By using micro-prisms, improved three-dimensional (3-D) bends of the embedded and buried waveguides of step-index profile are proposed. A simple phase compensation rule for the optimal design of the micro-prism is also presented. Through the simulation of 3-D semivectorial finite-difference beam propagation method, the transmission characteristics of the improved bends are shown to have been enhanced dramatically as compared with those of the conventional ones. Even for a bend angle of as large as 10°, the normalized transmitted power can still be greater than 95%. These results of 3-D bends are then compared with those of the two-dimensional (2-D) ones which are simplified from 3-D structures by the effective index method, and physical explanation of the discrepancy between the 3-D and 2-D results is introduced. The influences of waveguide structures and prism parameters on the transmission characteristics are discussed in detail. Some criteria for the design of large-angle low-loss 3-D improved bends are also accessed

Performance model of interactive video-on-demand systems

An interactive video-on-demand (VoD) system allows users to access video services, such as movies, electronic encyclopedia, interactive games, and educational videos from video servers on a broadband network. This paper develops a performance evaluation tool for the system design. In particular, a user activity model is developed to describe the usage of system resources, i.e., network bandwidth and video server usage, by a user as it interacts with the service. In addition, we allow batching of user requests, and the effect of such batching is captured in a batching model. Our proposed queueing model integrates both the user activity and the batching model. This model can be used to determine the requirements of network bandwidth and video server and, hence, the trade-off in communication and storage costs for different system resource configurations     

A BiCMOS dynamic carry lookahead adder circuit for VLSIimplementation of high-speed arithmetic unit

A BiCMOS dynamic carry lookahead circuit that is free from race problems is presented. A 16 b full-adder test circuit, which has been designed based on a 2 μm BiCMOS technology, shows a more than five times improvement in speed as compared to the CMOS Manchester carry lookahead (MCLA) circuit. The speed advantage of the BiCMOS dynamic carry lookahead circuit is even greater in a 32- or 64-b adder
