The combination of Log MAP and SOVA avoids updating the matrices of the maximum path, and also makes a contribution to the requirement of short delay. The simulation results of several SCCCs show that the improved decoder can obtain satisfied performance with short frame interleaver and it is suitable to the high bit rate low delay communication systems.展开更多

However, the complexity of the iterat iv e decoding restricts its application. This paper introduces a lower complex deco ding algorithm based on soft output Viterbi algorithm (SOVA) for Turbo STCM. S imulational results show that the new SOVA algorithm for the Turbo STCM outperf orms the original space time trellis code (STTC) by 4~6 dB. At the same time, compared with the Max Log MAP (maximum a posteriori) algorithm, the new scheme requires a lower complexity and approaches the performance of Turbo STCM decod ing w ith Max Log MAP.展开更多

Under the sch...To reduce the time required to complete the regeneration process of erasure codes, we propose a Tree-structured Parallel Regeneration (TPR) scheme for multiple data losses in distributed storage systems. Under the scheme, two algorithms are proposed for the construction of multiple regeneration trees, namely the edge-disjoint algorithm and edge-sharing algorithm. The edge-disjoint algorithm constructs multiple independent trees, and is simple and appropriate for environments where newcomers and their providers are distributed over a large area and have few intersections. The edge-sharing algorithm constructs multiple trees that compete to utilize the bandwidth, and make a better utilization of the bandwidth, although it needs to measure the available band-width and deal with the bandwidth changes; it is therefore difficult to implement in practical systems. The parallel regeneration for multiple data losses of TPR primarily includes two optimizations: firstly, transferring the data through the bandwidth optimized-paths in a pipe-line manner; secondly, executing data regeneration over multiple trees in parallel. To evaluate the proposal, we implement an event-based simulator and make a detailed comparison with some popular regeneration methods. The quantitative comparison results show that the use of TPR employing either the edge-disjoint algorithm or edge-sharing algorithm reduces the regeneration time significantly.展开更多

However, the time delay can be greatly shortened through the adoption of parallel decod-ing algorithm, dividing the received bits into several sub-blocks and processing in parallel. This letter mainly discusses the applicability of turbo codes in high-speed real-time channel through the study of a parallel turbo decoding algorithm based on 3GPP-proposed turbo encoder and interleaver in various channel. Simulation re-sult shows that, by choosing an appropriate sub-block length, the time delay can be obviously shortened with-out degrading the performance and increasing hardware complexity, and furthermore indicates the applicability of Turbo codes in high-speed real-time channel.展开更多

In many cryptography applications, higher speed is one of the references required. A new security random number generator architecture is presented. Its philosophy architecture is implemented with FPGA, based on the thermal noise and linear feedback shift register(LFSR). The thermal noise initializes LFSRs and is used as the disturbed source of the system to ensure the unpredictability of the produced random number and improve the security strength of the system. Parallel LFSRs can produce the pseudo-random numbers with long period and higher speed. The proposed architecture can meet the requirements of high quality and high speed in cryptography.展开更多

METHODS:Two investigators independently searched the Medline,Embase and Chinese Biomedicine databases.Summary odds ratios and 95%CI for p53 codon 72 polymorphism and liver cancer were calculated in fixedeffects model(Mantel-Haenszel method)and randomeffects model(DerSimonian and Laird method)when appropriate. RESULTS:This meta-analysis included 1115 liver cancer cases and 1778 controls.The combined results based on all studies showed that there was a statistically significant link between Pro/Pro genotype and liver cancer,but not between Arg/Arg or Pro/Arg genotype and liver cancer.When stratifying for race,similar results were obtained,i.e.patients with liver cancer had a significantly higher frequency of Pro/Pro genotype than non-cancer patients among Asians.After stratifying thevarious studies by control source,gender,family history of liver cancer and chronic hepatitis virus infection,we found that(1)patients among hospital-based studies had a significantly higher frequency of Pro/Pro and a significantly lower frequency of Arg/Arg genotype than individuals without cancer;(2)female patients with liver cancer had a significantly lower frequency of Arg/Arg and a higher frequency of Pro/Arg+Pro/Pro genotypes than female individuals without cancer;(3)subgroup analyses for family history of liver cancer did not reveal any significant association between p53 codon 72 polymorphism and liver cancer development;and(4) patients with negative hepatitis virus infection had a significantly higher frequency of Pro/Pro and a significantly lower frequency of Arg/Arg genotype than individuals without cancer. CONCLUSION:This meta-analysis suggests that the p53 codon 72 polymorphism may be associated with liver cancer among Asians.展开更多
