The networks are clustered with some web services such as ontologies, algorithms and rule engines with similar function and interfaces. In this scheme, web services acted as candidate service construct a distributed model which can't obtain the global services' information. The model is utilized to choose instances according to local QoS information in the progress of service composition. Some QoS matrixes are used to record and compare the instance paths and then choose a better one. Simulation result has proven that our ~pproach has a tradeoff between efficiency and ~quality.展开更多

Recently, more and more scholars paid attention to various kinds of transport networks and try to explore their inherent characteristics. Here we study the exponential properties of a recently introduced Bus Transport Networks (BTNs) evolution model with random overlapping clique structure, which gives a possible explanation for the observed exponential distribution of the connectivities of some BTNs of three major cities in China. Applying mean-field theory, we analyze the BTNs model and prove that this model has the character of exponential distribution of the connectivities, and develop a method to predict the growth dynamics of the individual vertices, and use this to calculate analytically the connectivity distribution and the exponents. By comparing mean-field based theoretic results with the statistical data of real BTNs, we observe that, as a whole, both of their data show similar character of exponential distribution of the connectivities, and their exponents have same order of magnitude, which show the availability of the analytical result of this paper.展开更多

A service model is proposed to characterize a service process of network with complex topologies. To obtain closed-form expression of statistical end-to-end performance bounds for a wide range of traffic source models, the traffic model and service model are expanded according to error function. Based on the proposed models, the explicit end-to-end delay bound of Fractional Brownian Motion(FBM) traffic is derived, the factors that affect the delay bound are analyzed, and a comparison between theoretical and simulation results is performed. The results illustrate that the proposed models not only fit the network behaviors well, but also facilitate the network performance analysis.展开更多

How- ever, in homogeneous cluster system.since the granularity is traditionally identical, all processors communicate almost simultaneously and computation load may lose balance. Due to problems above, a dynamic distribution model with prime granularity for parallel computing is presented. Granularities of each processor are relatively prime, and related theories are introduced. A high parallel performance can be achieved by minimizing network competition and using a load balancing strategy that ensures all processors finish almost simultaneously. Based on Master-Slave-Gleaner ( MSG) scheme, the parallel Splatting Algorithm for volume rendering is used to test the model on IBM Cluster 1350 system. The experimental results show that the model can bring a considerable improvement in performance, including computation efficiency, total execution time, speed, and load balancing.展开更多

Individual appliances and whole buildings that continuously incorporate local intelligence which originates from the new technologies of Internet of Things are the new infrastructure that this integration is based on. Smart Electricity Grids are becoming more intensively integrated with tertiary building energy management systems and distributed energy generators such as wind and solar. This new smart network type harnesses the loT (lnternet of Things) principles by generating a new network made of active elements combined with the necessary control and distributed coordination mechanisms. This new self-organized overlay network of connected DER (distributed energy resources) allows for the seamless management and control of the active grid as well as the efficient coordination and exploration of single and aggregated technical prosumer potential (generation and consumption) to participate in energy balancing and other distributed grid related services, applying energy management strategies based on control and predict of the DERs behavior for facing demand side management issues.展开更多

Firstly, a point distribution model is used to obtain the feature points of the ventricular surface in medical images. Secondly, the surface model is constructed by triangular mesh, and then the subdivision strategy is introduced to refine the model. Thirdly, plane projection and finite element method(FEM) are applied to calculate the tangential stress and strain.Finally, the distribution of tangential modulus of elasticity is discussed. The stimulation results show that the proposed method can be used to compute the tangential stress and strain of myocardial wall effectively and the computing result is consistent with the results mentioned in the literatures.展开更多

This model is built under cylindrical coordinates and enables the open-circuit air-gap flux-density distributions, phase permanent magnet(PM) flux-linkage, and electromotive-force(EMF) to be predicted with acceptable accuracy. However, large discrepancies are found in the predictions of armature inductances. Then, the basic model is modified by taking into account the localized saturation effect. As a result, the electromagnetic performance can be predicted more accurately, especially for the air-gap flux-density distributions. Furthermore, two improved models are proposed by adding bypass-bridge branches in stator network, to enhance the calculating accuracy of both saturated and unsaturated armature inductances. Finally, the predicted results from the four magnetic network models are validated by both 2D finite element analysis(FEA) and experimental measurements on a machine prototype. Overall, comparisons indicate that the model with bypass-bridge branches between stator teeth and back irons exhibits best performances.展开更多

This model is reduced by using the probability generating function and moment closure approximations. The basic reproduction number of the low-dimensional model is derived to rely on the recruitment and death rate, the first and second moments of newcomers' degree distribution. Sensitivity analysis for the basic reproduction number is performed, which indicates that a larger variance of newcomers' degrees can lead to an epidemic outbreak with a smaller transmission rate, and contribute to a slight decrease of the final density of infectious nodes with a larger transmission rate. Besides, stochastic simulations indicate that the low-dimensional model based on the log-normal moment closure assumption can well capture important properties of an epidemic. And the authors discover that a larger recruitment rate can inhibit the spread of disease.展开更多
