SDN中基于KMOBPSO的高可靠性控制器部署算法

针对SDN中控制器系统的单节点故障问题,兼顾系统成本和系统时延,应用N+1冗余备份模型来提高SDN控制器部署的可靠性,并将其抽象为多目标优化问题.同时,提出了一种融合K-means聚类算法和遗传算子的多目标二进制粒子群算法——KMOBPSO算法,以求解SDN控制器高可靠性部署问题的解.仿真结果表明,所提算法具有求解精度高、分布均匀、沿Pareto前沿面覆盖广的特点,能够显著提高SDN中控制器部署的可靠性.     

Unreliable numbers: error and harm induced by bad design can be reduced by better design

Number entry is a ubiquitous activity and is often performed in safety- and mission-critical procedures, such as healthcare, science, finance, aviation and in many other areas. We show that Monte Carlo methods can quickly and easily compare the reliability of different number entry systems. A surprising finding is that many common, widely used systems are defective, and induce unnecessary human error. We show that Monte Carlo methods enable designers to explore the implications of normal and unexpected operator behaviour, and to design systems to be more resilient to use error. We demonstrate novel designs with improved resilience, implying that the common problems identified and the errors they induce are avoidable.     

铝合金熔炼铸造能源与资源节约

在铝材生产中,熔炼、铸造工序是能源与资源消耗多的工序,因此,节约资源、降低烧损与能耗有着重要意义。降低能耗还可以相应地减少温室气体与有害、有毒物质排放,对环保有利。中国当前铝合金熔炼铸造能源与资源节约的主要措施:调整加工用锭坯供应结构,大幅提高电解铝厂供应的锭坯,由2013年供应的42%提高到"十三五"末的65%-70%;加快走出去的力度,到国外去办铝厂,将在国外生产的铝合金锭坯运回来,争取2020年出口的铝材与铝制品全部以进口锭坯加工,这是最大的资源与能源节约;加强废铝回收与有效再生利用;加强创新,大力采用新装备、新技术与新工艺;加强管理,精心操作,管理中还有较大的能源与资源节约潜力。
