一种基于P系统的图像阈值分割方法

将P系统引入到图像阈值分割中,提出了一种基于P系统的图像阈值分割方法。采用一个两层膜的组织型P系统作为其计算框架,每个膜作为独立的并行计算单元,速度一位置模型作为进化规则,同时采用同向／反向转运规则交换和共享膜之间的对象。实验结果表明,这个基于P系统框架的阈值分割方法具有可用性和有效性,能为图像寻找最优的分割阈值。

Using online collaboration applications for group assignments: The interplay between design and human characteristics

In recent years, educators and students are increasingly employing online collaboration applications such as Google Docs™ and PBWorks™ for group projects and assignments. Yet, the effectiveness of these emerging technologies has not been rigorously examined. Anchoring upon and informed by the existing literature, two design characteristics – sociability and visibility, and two human characteristics – gender and age, are focused on, which are salient in online collaboration applications. A field experiment was conducted to examine the direct and moderating effects of design and human characteristics on learning outcomes. The research found that sociability improved process satisfaction and positive social environment while visibility enhanced academic performance and solution satisfaction of learners. Males had higher solution satisfaction while older learners had higher academic performance. Moderating effects were also found. Both theoretical and practical implications are drawn. In particular, a rubric for online collaboration application selection for academic performance is conceived. This study provides empirical support for online collaboration application effectiveness in education which will augur well for future adoption, use and evolution.     

Performance evaluation of priority CSMA-CA mechanism on ISA100.11a wireless network

The International Society of Automation recently released ISA100.11a as an open standard for reliable wireless networks for industrial automation. ISA100.11a uses the TDMA scheme in the medium access layer to provide deterministic services. However, ISA100.11a adopts the CSMA-CA mechanism with priorities for retransmission from failure on dedicated links, sporadic data, and network configuration.This paper evaluates ISA100.11a CSMA-CA by simulation, considering the effects of backoff procedures and priority settings to probability of collision and successful use of slots. It's demonstrated that a high number of priority classes enable better network utilization resulting in less number of packets exceeding their lifetime.     

An iterative algorithm based on the piecewise linear system for solving bilateral obstacle problems

In this paper, we derive the piecewise linear system (PLS) associated with the bilateral obstacle problem and illustrate the equivalence between the linear system and finite-dimensional complementary problem. The existence and the uniqueness of the solution to the PLS are also demonstrated. Based on the PLS, a Picard iterative algorithm is proposed. The convergence analysis is given and examples are presented to verify the effectiveness of the method.     

Conditional diagnosability of hypermesh optical multiprocessor systems under the PMC model

The hypermeshes are a family of promising optical interconnection topologies for multiprocessor systems. In this paper, the conditional diagnosability of the hypermesh optical multiprocessor systems, under the PMC model, is determined. We derive that the conditional diagnosability of k ⁿ -hypermesh is 4n(k?1)?4k+1, where n≥3 and k≥5. This result shows that the hypermesh optical multiprocessor systems possess strong self-diagnosing abilities.     

Denotation and connotation in the human – computer interface: The ‘Save as …’ command

This paper presents a semiotic technique as a means of exploring meaning and understanding in interface design and use. This is examined through a study of the interaction between the ‘file’ metaphor and ‘save as’ command metaphor. The behaviour of these (from a functional or computational basis) do not exactly match, or map onto, the meaning of the metaphor. We examine both the denotation of a term to the user, i.e. its literal meaning to that person, and the term's connotations, i.e. any other meanings associated with the term. We suggest that the technique applied is useful in predicting future problems with understanding the use of metaphor at the interface and with designing appropriate signification for human-computer interaction. Variation in connotation was expected but a more fundamental difference in denotation was also uncovered. Moreover, the results clearly demonstrate that consistency in the denotation of a term is critical in achieving a good user understanding of the command.
