The 5 G wireless communication system provides large-scale NB-IoT terminals access with F-RAN, and the vertical industry applications need support for the device management. As one of the most influential protocol in the IoT application, the oneM2M protocol not only has a complete architecture, but also has an interface with other IoT protocols. Therefore, to bridge the gap between the operator and industrial enterprises, the main contributions of this paper are as follows: Firstly, a general multi-protocol conversion method is proposed based on oneM2M platform where the protocol classification is used in different scenarios. Secondly, the F-RAN architecture of oneM2M platform is designed and implemented with NB-IoT device access. Thirdly, a multiplexing scheme to process the device information is proposed for interworking proxy entity(IPE), which improves the conversion efficiency for different protocols. Finally, the feasibility and efficiency of the scheme are verified.展开更多

The electro-optical and photocatalytic properties of the synthesized sulfur doped TiO2 nanoparticles were studied along with Degussa commercial TiO2 particles （24 nm）. The results show that band gap of TiO2 particles decreases from 3.31 to 3.25 eV and for that of commercial TiO2 to 3.2 eV when the particle sizes increased from 3 nm to 12 nm with increase in sulfur doping. The results of the photocatalytic activity under UV and sun radiation show maximum phenol conversion at the particle size of 4 nm at 4.80% S-doping. Similar results are obtained using UV energy for both phenol conversion and conversion of CO2＋H2O in which formation of methanol, ethanol and proponal is observed. Production of methanol is also achieved on samples with a particle size of 8 and 12 nm and sulfur doping of 4.80% and 5.26%. For TiO2 particle of 4 nm without S doping, the production of methanol, ethanol and proponal was lower as compared to the S-doped particles. This is attributed to the combined electronic effect and band gap change, S dopant, specific surface area and the light source used.展开更多

These patients first received narrow-band imaging-targeted biopsy, and later, the Seattle protocol-guided biopsy, within a period from October 2012 to December 2014. Those cases without initial pathologic patterns of intestinal metaplasia （IM） and then appearance or loss of IM tissue were designated as Group A or B, respectively. Those with initial pathologic patterns ofIM, which then persisted or were lost were designated as Group C or D, respectively.RESULTSThe number of cases for each group was as follows： A： 20, B： 78, C： 31 and D： 14. The distribution of the Prague criteria M levels of Group A was significantly higher than Group B （ P = 0.174）. Among these groups, Group C had the highest proportions of hiatus hernia （54.8%）, long segment Barrett’s esophagus （29%）, and also the highest Prague criteria M levels. The sensitivity of IM detection was 69.2% for the narrow-band imaging-targeted biopsy and 78.5% for the Lee SW et al . Seattle protocol for Barrett’s esophagusSeattle protocol-guided biopsy. The difference was not signifcant （P = 0.231）. The number of detectable dysplasias increased from one case via the NBI-target biopsy to five cases via the Seattle protocol-guided biopsy, including one case of adenocarcinoma.CONCLUSIONThe Seattle protocol improved the IM detection in our subjects with higher Prague criteria M levels and disclosed more cases with dysplastic tissues.展开更多

We also propose three attacks, which the first two are based on an assumption that an attacker can corrupt the software installed on the user device, and the third is based on two users sharing a FIDO roaming authenticator. The results of the attacks are to impersonate the legitimate user to pass the online authentication.
文摘AIMTo investigate the benefits of the Seattle protocol in the diagnosis of Chinese individuals with Barrett’s esophagus.METHODSSubjects enrolled were patients from one center with endoscopically-suspected esophageal metaplasia. These patients first received narrow-band imaging-targeted biopsy, and later, the Seattle protocol-guided biopsy, within a period from October 2012 to December 2014. Those cases without initial pathologic patterns of intestinal metaplasia （IM） and then appearance or loss of IM tissue were designated as Group A or B, respectively. Those with initial pathologic patterns ofIM, which then persisted or were lost were designated as Group C or D, respectively.RESULTSThe number of cases for each group was as follows： A： 20, B： 78, C： 31 and D： 14. The distribution of the Prague criteria M levels of Group A was significantly higher than Group B （ P = 0.174）. Among these groups, Group C had the highest proportions of hiatus hernia （54.8%）, long segment Barrett’s esophagus （29%）, and also the highest Prague criteria M levels. The sensitivity of IM detection was 69.2% for the narrow-band imaging-targeted biopsy and 78.5% for the Lee SW et al . Seattle protocol for Barrett’s esophagusSeattle protocol-guided biopsy. The difference was not signifcant （P = 0.231）. The number of detectable dysplasias increased from one case via the NBI-target biopsy to five cases via the Seattle protocol-guided biopsy, including one case of adenocarcinoma.CONCLUSIONThe Seattle protocol improved the IM detection in our subjects with higher Prague criteria M levels and disclosed more cases with dysplastic tissues.

文摘为了降低电子传输层(Electron transport layer,ETL)与钙钛矿层之间的界面缺陷态密度,通过旋涂法在氧化铟锡(Indium tin oxide,ITO)透明导电玻璃上制备一层SnO_(2)电子传输层,并在其上表面旋涂(NH_(4))_(2)S以修饰SnO_(2)和钙钛矿光吸收层之间的界面。通过X射线光电子能谱、扫描电子显微镜、电化学阻抗谱等表征手段分析(NH_(4))_(2)S修饰对钙钛矿太阳能电池(Perovskite solar cells,PSCs)光电性能的影响。结果表明:NH_(4)^(+)降低了SnO_(2)的表面羟基(—OH)缺陷态密度,增强了界面的疏水性,减少了钙钛矿的形核位点,增大了钙钛矿晶粒;S^(2-)填补了SnO_(2)表面的氧空位(OV),同时部分S^(2-)还与未配位Pb^(2+)连接减少界面处Pb缺陷,抑制了界面处载流子复合;经过(NH_(4))_(2)S的修饰,PSCs开路电压从1.07 V提高到1.11 V,光电转化效率达到了20.53%。(NH_(4))2S修饰后的PSCs具有更高的光电转化效率、更好的长期稳定性。该研究可为PSCs商业化提供新的思路。
