However, the computation and communication resources need to be considered jointly to fully exploit the advantages brought by the MEC technology. In this paper, the scenario where multi robots cooperate to accomplish the time-critical tasks is studied, where an intelligent master robot(MR) acts as an edge server to provide services to multiple slave robots(SRs) and the SRs are responsible for the environment sensing and data collection. To save energy and prolong the function time of the system, two schemes are proposed to optimize the computation and communication resources, respectively. In the first scheme, the energy consumption of SRs is minimized and balanced while guaranteeing that the tasks are accomplished under a time constraint. In the second scheme, not only the energy consumption, but also the remaining energies of the SRs are considered to enhance the robustness of the system. Through the analysis and numerical simulations, we demonstrate that even though the first policy may guarantee the minimization on the total SRs’ energy consumption, the function time of MRC system by the second scheme is longer than that by the first one.展开更多

文摘Arctic education refers not only to the teaching,but also to research,communication,dissemination as well as popularization of knowledge related to the Arctic.This article reviews joint efforts between Chinese and American educators and researchers to promote cooperation and understanding in Arctic education and research,and examines the facing challenges of China-U.S.Arctic education cooperation which include current political or economic tensions between the two countries,the differing perspectives and priorities on Arctic policy,the disproportion in Arctic scientific research,different research methodologies and discourse system in social science.This article also argues that there are opportunities for the two countries to cooperate in Arctic education.Common goals and interests in the Arctic,Arctic-dedicated institutions with significant Arctic research capabilities and partnerships around the world provide foundations for Arctic education cooperation.The implementation of a new science-based Arctic treaty of the Arctic Council is an opportunity for China-U.S.Arctic education cooperation.As for future cooperation,it suggests that in addition to promoting the direct bilateral cooperation,cooperation within international cooperation platforms and mechanisms,especially within the Arctic Council also needs to be further promoted.
文摘Kuantan,the capital of Pahang State on the east coast of Malaysia,is a quiet town,where the Kuantan River winds and flows into the sea.The Malaysia-China Kuantan Industry Park,a major project of the Belt and Road Initiative and a demonstration base for cross-border international capacity cooperation,is located here.Since the official opening of the park in 2013,it has created an innovative model of economic cooperation between the two countries.In 2023,on the 10th Anniversary of the Kuantan Industrial Park,a new development plan was launched again-the 3rd plot of the Malaysia-China Kuantan Industry Park,known as Malaysia-China Kuantan International Logistics Park,was officially started.
文摘Energy cooperation is a key area in the joint construction of the Belt and Road Initiative.To deepen international energy cooperation,it is advisable to place greater emphasis on whole life cycle and systematic planning in project collaboration,government-led initiatives with businesses playing a central role,alongside coordination with non-governmental international institutions,and comprehensive integration of resources.
文摘At the 11th Forum on China-ASEAN Technology Transfer and Collaborative Innovation(hereinafter referred to as the China-ASEAN Innovation Forum)in July 2023,ASEAN Secretary-General Kao Kim Hourn highlighted the pivotal role of technology transfer and innovation in driving economic growth.He emphasized that technology transfer can assist China and ASEAN in bypassing traditional developmental stages.
文摘On June 5,the opening ceremony of the ASEAN(Malaysia)-China Conference on Emerging Industries took place in Kuala Lumpur.The conference was guided and hosted by ASEAN-China Centre(ACC),China International Communications Group(CICG),and Ministry of Investment,Trade,and Industry of Malaysia(MITI),and co-hosted by the CICG Center for Asia-Pacific,National Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Malaysia(NCCIM),Associated Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry of Malaysia(ACCCIM),and China Enterprises Chamber of Commerce in Malaysia(CECCM).More than 300 guests from government departments,business communities,and academia of China and Malaysia attended.
文摘Cell-free systems significantly improve network capacity by enabling joint user service without cell boundaries,eliminating intercell interference.However,to satisfy further capacity demands,it leads to high-cost problems of both hardware and power consumption.In this paper,we investigate multiple reconfigurable intelligent surfaces(RISs)aided cell-free systems where RISs are introduced to improve spectrum efficiency in an energy-efficient way.To overcome the centralized high complexity and avoid frequent information exchanges,a cooperative distributed beamforming design is proposed to maximize the weighted sum-rate performance.In particular,the alternating optimization method is utilized with the distributed closed-form solution of active beamforming being derived locally at access points,and phase shifts are obtained centrally based on the Riemannian conjugate gradient(RCG)manifold method.Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed design whose performance is comparable to the centralized scheme and show great superiority of the RISs-aided system over the conventional cellular and cell-free system.
文摘Exports of Chinese satellites,joint construction of space infrastructure,and joint research and development of satellites...The recent years have seen substantial growth in China-Africa cooperation in the space sector,which is bringing tangible benefits to both sides.
文摘In recent years,China has made remarkable technological progress in a number of areas.Given this progress,it is crucial to rapidly transform technological results into productivity gains.
文摘In order to explore and foster innovation in international exchange and cooperation,this study focuses on the background of the construction of the Hainan Free Trade Port.It delves into the current development status,characteristic demands,and potential challenges of its international exchange and cooperation mechanisms.Through a comprehensive analysis of relevant cases,survey questionnaires,and literature,this study aims to provide feasible innovative models and recommendations to promote the sustained development of the Hainan Free Trade Port in the field of international exchange and cooperation,injecting new vitality into China’s economic globalization.This exploration contributes to a deeper understanding of the development of free trade ports and provides insights and references for other countries and regions.
