Using a Discrete-Event System Specifications (DEVS) for designing a Modelica compiler

We introduce a new architecture for the design of a tool for modeling and simulation of continuous and hybrid systems. The environment includes a compiler based on Modelica, a modular and a causal standard specification language for physical systems modeling (the tool supports models composed using certain component classes defined in the Modelica Standard Library, and the instantiation, parameterization and connection of these MSL components are described using a subset of Modelica). Models are defined in Modelica and are translated into DEVS models. DEVS theory (originally defined for modeling and simulation of discrete event systems) was extended in order to permit defining these of models. The different steps in the compiling process are show, including how to model these dynamic systems under the discrete event abstraction, including examples of model simulation with their execution results.     

Quantum computation based bundling optimization for combinatorial auction in freight service procurements

Combinatorial auction is a useful trade manner for transportation service procurements in e-marketplaces. To enhance the competition of combinatorial auction, a novel auction mechanism of two-round bidding with bundling optimization is proposed. As the recommended the auction mechanism, the shipper/auctioneer integrates the objects into several bundles based on the bidding results of first round auction. Then, carriers/bidders bid for the object bundles in second round. The bundling optimization is described as a multi-objective model with two criteria on price complementation and combination consistency. A Quantum Evolutionary Algorithm (QEA) with β-based rotation gate and the encoding scheme based on non-zero elements in complementary coefficient matrix is developed for the model solution. Comparing with a Contrast Genetic Algorithm, QEA can achieve better computational performances for small and middle size problems.     

An object replication algorithm for real-time distributed databases

A real-time distributed database system (RTDDBS) must maintain the consistency constraints of objects and must also guarantee the time constraints imposed by each request arriving at the system. Such a time constraint of a request is usually defined as a deadline period, which means that the request must be serviced on or before its time constraint. Servicing these requests may incur I/O costs, control-message transferring costs or data-message transferring costs. As a result, in our work, we first present a mathematical model that considers all these costs. Using this cost model, our objective is to service all the requests on or before their respective deadline periods and minimize the total servicing cost. To this end, from theoretical standpoint, we design a dynamic object replication algorithm, referred to as Real-time distributed dynamic Window Mechanism (RDDWM), that adapts to the random patterns of read-write requests. Using competitive analysis, from practical perspective, we study the performance of RDDWM algorithm under two different extreme conditions, i.e., when the deadline period of each request is sufficiently long and when the deadline period of each request is very short. Several illustrative examples are provided for the ease of understanding. Recommended by: Ashfaq Khokhar

SQL的现状及其研究与发展

一、SQL简介 如果说七十年代关系数据库还处于研制实验阶段,那么到了八十年代大量关系数据库商用产品的面市几乎占据了整个数据库市场,其中的原因在于它们使用了统一的语言界面,那就是,SQL成为了关系数据库的通用语言。 1974年．IBM公司San Jose研究实验室的D．D．Chamberlin在开发SEQUEL-XRM原型时提出了SE-QUEL(Structured English Query Language),1976年又修改成为SEQUEL／2．也就是目前的SQL(StructuredQuer Language)。SEQUEL／2主要成形于IBM的Sys-tem R原型中[2],并在原有基础上大加扩展,其后逐渐完善并最终成为一种完备的结构化数据库查询语言。

条件概率关系数据库模型

现实世界中大量存在着的不确定性信息，关系数据库模型仅视它们为空值，有必要增强其处理这类信息的能力，文章在总结前人工作的基础上推广关系数据库模型，创建有效处理随机型不确定性信息的条件概念关系数据库模型，该模型通过在关系模式中增加一个条件概率测度属性，为每条记录指定适当的条件概率的途径，来表示不确定性信息。文中以对象码为基本工具，创建了条件概率关系结构；以特征函数为基本工具，定义了一套基于该结构的代数运算规则。条件概率的语意比概率的语意广泛，灵活，因而该模型能有效克服概率关系模型的许多不足。     

Effect of flow on solutions of rod-coil block co-polymers

An elongational flow field is imposed on a solution of block copolymers consisting of semirigid macromolecules with rigid, rodlike sequences of units in combination with random coil (flexible) units. The problem is formulated according to the lattice treatment of Matheson and Flory. In this formulation, the system consists of rigid blocks whose lengths and locations are fixed by the structure within each macromolecule. These blocks are separated by random coiled units. An excess free energy other than the equilibrium Gibbs free energy of the quiescent solution has to be considered due to the flow field that tends to align the rods. This excess free energy is calculated from the potential energy of rods when a steady-state, homogeneous and irrotational flow field is applied to the solution. The effects of composition, polymer-solvent interaction, size of the co-polymer and flow rates are investigated. Depending on the size and number of rods, some of the chains studied exhibit a biphasic region at equilibrium that shifts to lower concentrations with increasing flow. Longer chains with shorter rods that are isotropic at equilibrium, exhibit a biphasic region at finite values of flow. The degree of orientation increases sharply when the system is biphasic. For larger flows, the orientation function is very close to unity which is perfect orientation.     

Study on the c-axis preferred orientation of ZnO film on various metal electrodes

ZnO thin film was deposited on various metal electrodes by reactive sputtering, and c-axis preferred orientation of the film has been studied. ZnO, which has high piezoelectricity, is promising for oscillators or filter devices such as surface acoustic wave (SAW) device, gas sensor, and film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR). But, for the application of ZnO film for these devices, the film should be grown with c-axis normal to the electrode. In this study, Pt, Al, and Au were deposited on Si wafer, and the surface roughness and crystal structure of the ZnO film on the electrode were investigated using AFM, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Columnar structures of ZnO films were grown with c-axis normal to all electrodes, and among them Pt electrode showed the highest preferred orientation of ZnO film.
