Collaborative Multiple Access And Energy-Efficient Resource Allocation in Distributed Maritime Wireless Networks

With the rapid increasing of maritime activities, maritime wireless networks(MWNs) with high reliability, high energy efficiency, and low delay are required. However, the centralized networking with fixed resource scheduling is not suitable for MWNs due to the special environment. In this paper,we introduce the collaborative relay communication in distributed MWNs to improve the link reliability, and propose an orthogonal time-frequency resource block reservation based multiple access(RRMA) sche...

Eventual Clusterer: A Modular Approach to Designing Hierarchical Consensus Protocols in MANETs

This paper proposes a modular approach to the design of hierarchical consensus protocols for the mobile ad hoc network with a static and known set of hosts. A two-layer hierarchy is imposed on the network by grouping mobile hosts into clusters, each with a clusterhead. The messages from and to the hosts in the same cluster are merged/unmerged by the clusterhead so as to reduce the message cost and improve the scalability. The proposed modular approach separates the concerns of clustering hosts from achieving consensus. A clustering function, called eventual clusterer (denoted as diamC), is designed for constructing and maintaining the two-layer hierarchy. Similar to unreliable failure detectors, diamC greatly facilitates the design of hierarchical protocols by providing the fault-tolerant clustering function transparently. We propose an implementation of diamC based on the failure detector diamS. Using diamC, we design a new hierarchical consensus protocol. As shown by the performance evaluation results, the proposed consensus protocol can save both message cost and time cost. Our proposed modular design is therefore effective and can lead to efficient solutions to achieving consensus in mobile ad hoc networks.

工艺参数对马氏体不锈钢激光冲击区表面轮廓的影响

激光功率密度和搭接率对马氏体不锈钢的激光冲击区的表面轮廓有较大影响.激光功率密度从3.79 GW/cm2到7.25 GW/cm2,冲击区塑性变形程度随功率密度增大而增大,当激光功率密度为6.09 GW/cm2时,冲击区塑性变形程度适中,其残余应力平均值达-569.1 MPa.搭接率试验结果表明,搭接率为33%时,可获得较大面积无挤出的激光冲击区,无挤出区域的塑性均匀,变形深度波动幅度在2μm以内,而且此搭接率下冲击区挤出面积较小,分布具有规律,便于再次冲击以降低冲击区的表面波纹度.

Possible Role of GnIH as a Novel Link between Hyperphagia-Induced Obesity-Related Metabolic Derangements and Hypogonadism in Male Mice

Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) is a reproductive inhibitor and an endogenous orexigenic neuropeptide that may be involved in energy homeostasis and reproduction. However, whether GnIH is a molecular signal link of metabolism and the reproductive system, and thus, regulates reproductive activity as a function of the energy state, is still unknown. In the present study, we investigated the involvement of GnIH in glycolipid metabolism and reproduction in vivo, and in the coupling between these two processes in the testis level. Our results showed that chronic intraperitoneal injection of GnIH into male mice not only increased food intake and altered meal microstructure but also significantly elevated body mass due to the increased mass of liver and epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT), despite the loss of testicular weight. Furthermore, chronic intraperitoneal administration of GnIH to male mice resulted in obesity-related glycolipid metabolic derangements, showing hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, glucose intolerance, and insulin resistance through changes in the expression of glucose and lipid metabolism-related genes in the pancreas and eWAT, respectively. Interestingly, the expression of GnIH and GPR147 was markedly increased in the testis of mice under conditions of energy imbalance, such as fasting, acute hypoglycemia, and hyperglycemia. In addition, chronic GnIH injection markedly inhibited glucose and lipid metabolism of mice testis while significantly decreasing testosterone synthesis and sperm quality, inducing hypogonadism. These observations indicated that orexigenic GnIH triggers hyperphagia-induced obesity-related metabolic derangements and hypogonadism in male mice, suggesting that GnIH is an emerging candidate for coupling metabolism and fertility by involvement in obesity and metabolic disorder-induced reproductive dysfunction of the testes.
