Enhancing Data Forwarding Efficiency in SIoT with Multidimensional Social Relations

Effective data communication is a crucial aspect of the Social Internet of Things(SIoT)and continues to be a significant research focus.This paper proposes a data forwarding algorithm based on Multidimensional Social Relations(MSRR)in SIoT to solve this problem.The proposed algorithm separates message forwarding into intra-and cross-community forwarding by analyzing interest traits and social connections among nodes.Three new metrics are defined:the intensity of node social relationships,node activity,and community connectivity.Within the community,messages are sent by determining which node is most similar to the sender by weighing the strength of social connections and node activity.When a node performs cross-community forwarding,the message is forwarded to the most reasonable relay community by measuring the node activity and the connection between communities.The proposed algorithm was compared to three existing routing algorithms in simulation experiments.Results indicate that the proposed algorithmsubstantially improves message delivery efficiency while lessening network overhead and enhancing connectivity and coordination in the SIoT context.

Correlation between social relational quality and hope among patients with permanent colostomies

Purpose:This study examined the correlation between social relational quality and hope among patients with permanent colostomies.Methods:Eighty-six eligible patients with permanent colostomies were recruited from a Class A tertiary hospital from July to December 2012.A self-designed demographic questionnaire,the Social Relational Quality Scale(SRQS),and the Herth Hope Index(HHI)were administered to all patients.Results:The total social relationship quality and hope scores were 49.42±4.98 and 38.52±4.64,respectively.The total scale score and composing subscale scores for social relationship quality and hope showed a statistically significant positive correlation with each other(r?0.324e0.680;p<0.01).Conclusions:A positive correlation exists between social relational quality and hope among patients with permanent colostomies.This finding suggests that such patients should be given hope and that their families should be encouraged to provide more support for better acceptance and adjustment.

Interpersonal Perception in Virtual Groups: Examining Homophily, Identification and Individual Attraction Using Social Relations Model in Network

With the penetration of the Internet, virtual groups have become more and more popular. The reliability and accuracy of interpersonal perception in the virtual environment is an intriguing issue. Using the Social relations model (SRM) [1], this paper investigates interpersonal perception in virtual groups from a multilevel perspective. In particular, it examines the following three areas: homophily, identification, and individual attraction, and explores how much of these directional and dyadic relational evaluations can be attributed to the effect of the actor, the partner, and the relationship.

Psychological Contract within Labor Relation and Its Management Strategy

The paper argues that labor contracts between employees and organization includes two facets, i.e. economic contracts and psychological contracts, and along with enterprise competition becoming fierce increasingly and labor force becoming diversified all the more, the psychological contracts have crucial effects on employees＇ attitudes, behaviors and performances. We also argue that, under the challenging organization context, if managers want to make strategic partnership with employees, they must link employees with hearts, pay attention to the management of psychological contracts before, during and after signing labor contracts, and keep dynamic equilibrium of psychological contracts.

Analysis on the Problems of Agent Performance in Administrative Law

With the rapid development of modem social politics and economy,agent performance has been a need of the People's Republic of China's administrative law enforcement and the public.Its form is relatively mild,and it is the product formed in the field of modem administrative law enforcement.The contemporary agent performance system has been playing an important role in environmental protection and traffic safety,which can save administrative costs to a certain extent,improve the efficiency of law enforcement,as well as effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of the obligee.In spite of this,agent performance in China's administrative law has gained a lot of space for development,but there are many aspects that still need continuous development and improvement such as the subject,procedure,and cost of agent performance.This article focuses on the issue of agent performance as well as analyzes the subject,procedure,and cost of agent performance in administrative law of the People's Republic of China in aiming to promote the development of agent performance in administrative compulsory law of the People's Republic of China.

Quasi-Networks in Social Relational Systems

In social sciences it is more or less generally acknowledged that (social) networks seem to be the natural tool in the organization of social activity. In the liteature on the mathematical description of social phenomena the concept of a network is hardly used.In this paper we focus on the development of a’possible mathematical formualtion of the properties of a social network and a minimal and nearly complete social relational subsystem as a quasi-network within the setting of an economic trade system.

Board independence and fluctuations of corporate performance--A research from the angle of social relations of independent directors

Based on whether there is social relation between independent directors and CEOs,there are two types of independence in the board of directors:nominal independence and real independence.Their influences on the fluctuations of corporate performance are varied.First,the board independence will strengthen supervision and reduce the fluctuations in corporate performance.Second,the nominal board independence will reduce performance fluctuations but with inadequate significance;however,the real independence significantly reduces fluctuations of corporate performance;social relations between CEO and independent directors will encourage fluctuations of corporate performance.This also confirms that the independent directors can reduce the corporate performance instead of just holding the post and doing nothing.At the same time,in order to improve the real board independence,when recruiting independent directors,those gray directors who have social relations with CEO must be identified and excluded.
