In this paper, the method of making compositional MR (CMR) based on the speculative law of proposition logic is presented. This method constructs new MRs by composing existing MRs in a pairwise way. Because CMR contains all the advantages of the MRs that form it, its fault detection performance is wonderful. On the other hand, the number of relations will decrease greatly after composing, so a program can be tested with much fewer test cases when CMRs are used. In order to research the characteristics of a CMR, two case studies are analyzed. The experimental results show that the CMR's performance is mostly determined by the central MRs forming it and the sequence of composition. Testing efficiency is improved greatly when CMRs are used.展开更多

Modeled with UML statechart diagrams, the primary system functions and corresponding traversal features are enveloped into various orthogonal regions of a composite state. The mutual relationships between orthogonal regions are implied by the orders of broadcast events. Using a modular transition system as a basic computational model, the formalization description of A-O statechart models is proposed. The precise semantics of model elements and modeling procedures is given. The example study indicates that the separation strategy of crosscutting concerns is implemented in the design phase of the concurrent software system with this method. Meanwhile, the software modeling method has advantages of loose coupling, adaptability and traceability.展开更多

It is always used to delineate reserves, as separate from structure. The energy density of Eriocheir sinensis was studied through DEB software in this paper. The results showed that Hepatopancreas energy density (32.17 ± 3.77 KJ/g) was higher than gonad (23.19 ± 2.86KJ/ g), muscle (24.41± 1.41 K J/g) and carapace energy density (14.42 ±1.76 KJ/g). The difference between gonad (23.19± 2.86KJ/g) and muscle energy density (4.41 ±1.41 K J/g) of females and males was significant (P 〈 0.01), but not between muscle and carapace energy density (P 〉 0.05), and no difference between female and male individual in total energy (P = 0.887) at the stable stage. The linear relation between volume and weight of Eriocheir sinensis was gained by using regression analysis, V=6.104+ 1.117WW (R2=0.973, n=98), and the linear relation between total energy and dry weight was also gained, E= 18.12DW-28.05 (R2=0.962 ,n=24).展开更多

In the open and changeable environment on the Internet, it is of great significance to research a system flexible and capable in dynamic evolution that can find a collaboration method for agents which can be used in dynamic evolution process. With such a method, agents accomplish tasks for an overall target and at the same time, the collaborative relationship of agents can be adjusted with the change of environment. A method of task decomposition and collaboration of agents by improved contract net protocol is introduced. Finally, analysis on the result of the experiments is performed to verify the improved contract net protocol can greatly increase the efficiency of communication and collaboration in multi-agent system.展开更多
