凡是锦囊,皆为妙计?——论陀思妥耶夫斯基早中期小说的“信中信”现象

在陀思妥耶夫斯基1870年前的早中期小说如《穷人》《双重人格》《九封信组成的小说》《地下室手记》《罪与罚》《白痴》等中,普遍存在“文中信”“文中文”和“信中信”的形式(本文统称为“信中信”现象)。这些在文体上属于书信的内容,叙事的层级等次不一,功能和效果也不尽相同。它们虽然并非都是提供现成答案的“锦囊妙计”,但确实有利于操控叙事进程:有的是为了设置更多的复杂线索、转移叙事的核心,有的则是为了避开焦点、混淆视听、制造冲突,在故意设置的混乱背景中立体展现主人公的心理和思想。作为套叠叙事、亚文本或次亚文本的“信中信”现象,既是陀思妥耶夫斯基独特的书信体和类书信体书写,也是其小说创作中一种力求创新突破的叙事策略。

May Protein Be as the Genetic Information Carrier?

The 'central dogma 'of molecular biology indicated that the direction of the genetic information flow is from DNA - RNA - protein. However, up to now, the central dogma has not obtained a sufficient theoretical support from cybernetics and information theory. In addition, some special cases in biology, such as, although the scrapie prion is irreversibly inactivated by alkali, five procedures with more specificity for modifying nucleic acids failed to cause inactivation and when a resting cell is activated by some factors and division occurs, protein synthesis has begun before DNA synthesis etc., are also very difficult to explain clearly by the central dogma. A broad outline of a mechanism for reverse translation can easily be 'designed', based on the normal translation process, and this serves both to prove that there is no fundamental theoretical reason for the central dogma, and to illustrate why the redundancy of genetic code is not a problem.This paper, based on some previous research work of authors, from the view of cybernetics, information theory and theoretical biology, explored the possibility of protein as a genetic information carrier, the probable pairing ways between ammo acids-codons, and the direction of genetic information flows etc., at theory, by comparing and analyzing theoretically the characteristics of information carriers existing in DNA and protein. The authors inferred that perhaps protein may join the informational transferring as a genetic information carrier; the direction of genetic information flows, besides the way described by the central dogma, seem also to have another type, that is, genetic information flowing from protein - DNA (RNA) - protein, which also includes the genetic information flow in the central dogma. Undoubtedly, the research on problems about the position and roles of protein during the genetic information transferring will have an important effect on the investigation and development of molecular biology, molecular genetics and gene engineering.

Telecentres in Mountain Regions-A Peruvian Case Study of the Impact of Information and Communication Technologies on Remoteness and Exclusion

Communities in developing country mountain areas,in part due to their remoteness,find themselves excluded from social,political and economic systems; and excluded from access to resources. This paper aims to study the impact of information and communication technologies (ICTs) on remoteness and exclusion. It utilises two models - the resource movement framework,and the "information chain" - to analyse a telecentre in one district of mountainous Huancavelica,Peru's poorest region,set in the high Andes. It finds ICTs enabling new and positive resource flows for the two key user groups:teenaged school students and young farmers. These help to maintain social networks. They also support information searches that have improved agricultural practice where other information chain resources have been available. But non-use and ineffective use of the telecentre are found where information chain resources are lacking. ICTs have some impacts on intangible elements of remoteness. In this particular example,they also offer access to some previously-excluded resources. But they have not really addressed the systematic exclusions faced by mountain communities. And they so far appear to be a technology of inequality; favouring those residents who begin with better resource endowments.The paper concludes by offering some recommendations for mountain ICT project practice.

Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used to obtain the weight of each index and enables examiners to visualize the decision process and obtain more reasonable evaluation values to solve some problems. An example is given at the end of this paper.

Measuring Spatial Differences of Informatization in China

As the wide application of new Information and Communication Technologies （ICTs） shows, the world is moving fast to- wards an information age. Since China was first connected to the Internet in 1994, the development of ICTs in China and around the world has been astonishingly fast, and yet there is a clear ＇digital divide＇ among different regions in China. Although Chinese geogra- phers have paid attention to regional differences in informatization, they usually employ a limited number of indicators, mainly focusing on the Intemet. In fact, infi^rmatization is a much broader concept, covering not only the lntemet, but also mobile phones as well as user ability. In the light of these considerations, this study provides a comprehensive examination of the development of informatization and its spatial differences in China. First, based on a literature review, the paper identifies 29 preliminary indicators for measuring informa- tization, and employs prin,-ipal components analysis and the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process to streamline them into 12 indicators to form an ICTs Developmen： Index （ID1）. Second, by using the data from provincial statistical yearbooks and the China Internet Network Information Center, the paper calculates the 1191 of each mega-region and each province in 2000-2010, and measures the changing spa- tial differences in the development of informatization in China. Lastly, the paper quantifies the relationship between informatization and economic growth. The empirical results show that the IDI of the western and central China has been increasing faster than that of the coastal region, indicating that the digital divide in China has been narrowing.

Generalized Physical Layer Channel Model for RelayBased Super Dense Networks

The κ-μ fading model is an advanced channel model in super dense wireless networks.In this paper,we evaluate the performance of the system over κ-μ fading channel in super dense relay networks with consideration of multiple independent but not necessarily identically distributed(i.n.i.d.) cochannel interference(CCI) under interferencelimited environment.More specifically,we derive a useful and accurate cumulative distribution function(CDF) expression of the end-to-end signal-to-interference plus noise(SINR) ratio.Moreover,we derive novel analytical expressions of the outage probability(OP),average bit error probability(ABEP) and average capacity for binary modulation types and arbitrary positive values of κ-and μ of such system.Furthermore,we propose asymptotic analysis for both the OP and ABEP to give physical insights.A simplified analytical form for the ABEP at high-SNR regimes is provided as well.Finally,the accuracy of the derived expressions is well validated by Monte Carlo simulations.

Energy Saving Cooperative Communication over Fading Channels with Relay Selection and Power Control

In order to save energy and make more efficient use of wireless channel, this article puts forward an energy saving cooperative relaying scheme which actuates the cooperative transmis- sion only when the feedback from the destination indicates failure of the direct transmission. The proposed scheme selects the optimal relay and its corresponding transmission power in each time slot based on channel condition and residual ener- gy with the objective of minimizing energy con- sumption and extending network lifetime. In the study, the f＇mite-state Markov channel model is used to characterize the correlation structure of channel fading in wireless networks, and the pro- cedure of relay selection and transmission power decision is formulated as a M arkov decision process. Numerical and simulation results show that the proposed scheme consumes less energy and prolongs the network lifetime.

Enhanced cooperative packet retransmission employing joint cooperative diversity and symbol mapping diversity

A joint cooperation diversity and symbol mapping diversity (SMD) strategy is proposed for cooperative packet retransmission system with high-order modulation such as 16QAM. Substantial SER/BER (symbol error rate/bit error rate) gains result from multiple packet transmissions over independent paths and distinct bit-to-symbol mappings for each packet transmis-sion. The SER/BER performance of relay assisted retransmission system is analyzed. Simulation results show that the joint-diversity strategy can provide more BER gains than other relaying strategies (i.e., decode-and-forward and constellation rearrangement relaying strategies) when no relay makes a decision error; but if some relays make decision errors, the joint-di-versity strategy outperforms other relaying strategies only when the relays are closer to the source than to the destination.

Secrecy rate analysis of dual-hop AF relay wiretap channel

An amplify-and-forward(AF) dual-hop relay is proposed for secure communication within Wyner s wiretap channel.Based on an information-theoretic formulation,the average secrecy rate is characterized when two legitimate partners communicate over a quasi-static fading channel.Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that both cooperative strategies of average power scaling(APS) and instantaneous power scaling(IPS) are proved to be able to achieve information-theoretic security,and eavesdropper is unable to decode any information.

Capacity of a Class of Dirty-Tape Gaussian Orthogonal Relay Channel with State Information at the Source and Relay

A Gaussian channel with additive interference that is causally known to the transmitter is called a Dirty-Tape Channel(DTC).In this paper,we consider a state-dependent dirty-tape Gaussian relay channel with orthogonal channels from the source to the relay and from the source and relay to the destination.The orthogonal channels are corrupted by two independent additive interferences causally known to both the source and relay.The lower and upper bounds of the channel capacity are established.The lower bound is obtained by employing superposition coding at the source,Partial Decode-and-Forward(PDF)relaying at the relay,and a strategy similar to that used by Shannon at the source and relay.The explicit capacity is characterised when the power of the relay is sufficiently large.Finally,several numerical examples are provided to illustrate the impact of additive interferences and the role of the relay in information transmission and in removing the interference.

Performance Analysis for Amplify-and-Forward Relay Selection with Outdated Channel State Information

The impact of outdated Channel State Information(CSI) on the performance of relay selections,including the partial relay selection and the best relay selection,is studied,with respect to Amplify-and-Forward(AF) mode cooperative systems.The proposed method is analysed by deriving the asymptotic closedform expressions for some figures of merit such as the outage probability and the Symbol Error Probability(SEP).Moreover,the validity of the proposed theoretical analysis is proven via simulations.Numerical results prove that the performance of the proposed scheme is impacted considerably by various parameters such as the number of candidate relays and the end-to-end Signal-to-Noise Ratio(SNR).In the presence of cooperative networks with outdated CSI feedback,a performance improvement of more than 3 dB in terms of either outage probability or SEP can be observed by utilizing the Source-to-Destination(S D) link rather than the method of simply increasing the number of relays.

The Educational Role of Libraries in the Digital Age Among the High School and University Student in Slavonski Brod and Osijek

A society of knowledge has a mission based on information dissemination and its usage, but its purpose cannot be completely realized without library as an institution that collects, processes, archives, protects and provides library collections to the public. Elementary- and high-school libraries, as well as the academic ones, are ubiquitous as associates and promoters of importance of information in the Digital Age. Information literacy becomes a foundation of an individual＇s literacy in general and leads him/her toward lifelong learning that becomes a philosophy on the way to a society of knowledge. The paper presents research results of informatics and information literacy among students with a purpose of improving the library mission and vision within future education. Data were collected by poll and the pollees were high-school and university students of Slavonski Brod and Osijek. This study found that although the trend of Internet usage in a library is not high, the percentage of those possessing a basic Information and Communication Technology OCT） literacy level is high. Another significant fact is that the number of those unskilled in ICT usage （online database and catalog search） is high which represents a challenge to the libraries and ICT experts who are the incumbents of great responsibility.

The development and maturity of the semantic web make the highly efficient and high-quality semantic information retrieval possible. The semantic web technology has been applied in the intelligent information retrieval, the inter-enterprise data exchange and knowledge management, and the Interact services and so on. Through the semantic web technology, we can explore the intelligent convergence of the overseas Chinese information data, design the intelligent aggregation model of the overseas Chinese information data, and design the relationship and functions between various modules.

Wireless Relay Communication on High Speed Railway：Full Duplex or Half Duplex？

In this paper,we introduce one full-duplex(FD) relaying transmission scheme for high speed railway and compare its ergodic capacity and outage performance with half-duplex(HD) relaying scheme. Both decode-and-forward(DF) amplify-and-forward(AF) relay modes are considered. Moreover,the carriage penetration loss(CPL) and the self-interference(SI) cancellation ratio are investigated. We derive the closed-form expressions for the outage probability and ergodic capacity of both HD and FD relay transmission schemes. It is shown that when CPL is larger than a certain level,the FD relay can achieve better performance in terms of capacity and keep the outage probability in a low level. It is also found that three factors: AF or DF modes,CPL and SI cancellation ratio,can have impact on capacity performance,and that CPL is one decisive factor. Our results can provide theoretical supports for development and deployment of future wireless communication systems on high speed railways.

LTE-Satellite: Chinese Proposal for Satellite Component of IMT-Advanced System

As a complementary to terrestrial mobile communication systems, mobile satellite communication system can fill the gaps that cannot be covered by terrestrial network, and provides an irreplaceable solution for emergency communication in disaster. To pave the road for future satellite/terrestrial integrated communication networks, ITU-R invited proposals for candidate Radio Interface Technology(RIT) for the satellite component of International Mobile Telecommunications(IMT)-Advanced. China proposed the RIT of Long Term Evolution(LTE)-satellite as a candidate to be considered as IMT-Advanced satellite technology. The submitted LTE-satellite candidate RIT is specified based on terrestrial LTEAdvanced FDD standards that are developed in 3GPP. Considering satellite requirements, a number of modifications to LTE-Advanced are made to adapt to satellite radio transmission environments. This paper provides a general introduction of the new characteristics of LTEsatellite.
