A priority-based dynamic load transfer algorithm for cellular/WLAN integrated networks

For the integration network of a cellular network and a wireless local area network （WLAN）, a priority-based dynamic load transfer （PDLT） algorithm is proposed. The dynamic vertical handoffs by call admission control are jointly determined by the network conditions and the traffic characteristics in combination with the location-condition of mobile terminals. When there is no bandwidth resource available in the cellular network or WLAN, the proposed PDLT algorithm allows an incoming voice call or data call within the overlapping area of the cellular network and the WLAN to be directed to the spare network; meanwhile, by dynamically computing the occupancy of the bandwidth resource, the proposed PDLT algorithm also allows an ongoing voice call or data communication to be transferred to the network with a sufficient bandwidth resource according to the given threshold to balance the number of voice/data calls in the two networks. The analysis results of a two-dimensional Markov model and the simulation results show that the PDLT algorithm can effectively enhance the whole integrated network＇ s traffic, reduce the blocking probability of new calls and increase the data throughput, and thus decrease the response time for various services.

Drivers'fixation transfer characteristics in urban tunnels

To improve the safety performance of urban tunnels,the fixation transfer characteristics of drivers with different driving experience levels in urban tunnels were investigated.First,a real vehicle test was performed in an urban tunnel,and the eye movement data of 10 drivers with different driving experience levels were collected using a Dikablis eye-tracking system.Second,the driver fixation range was divided into eight areas of visual interest by using the K-means clustering method,and the fixations in different sections of the tunnel were comparatively analyzed.Finally,on the basis of the divided areas of visual interest,fixation transfer rules and the stationary distribution characteristics of drivers with different driving experience levels on different sections of the tunnel were discussed using Markov theory.Results indicate that drivers'probability of repeated fixation is greater and that the efficiency of visual search is lower at internal sections of tunnels than in external sections.Drivers obtain information mainly from the straight upper front and straight lower front areas,and the probabilities of fixation points in these two areas at the threshold and exit sections are significantly higher than those in other sections.Relative to experienced drivers,novice drivers allocate little attention to the straight upper front area and rear-view mirrors.Hence,they have weak fixation when looking forward,and they lack experience in obtaining information on rear-approaching vehicles and controlling speed.

Mean square stability of recurrent neural networks with random delay and Markovian switching

To establish easily proved conditions under which the random delayed recurrent neural network with Markovian switching is mean-square stability,the evolution of the delay was modeled by a continuous-time homogeneous Markov process with a finite number of states.By employing Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals and conducting stochastic analysis,a linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach was developed to derive the criteria for mean-square stability,which can be readily checked by some standard numerical packages such as the Matlab LMI Toolbox.A numerical example was exploited to show the usefulness of the derived LMI-based stability conditions.

于阗镇守军与当地社会

中国人民大学博物馆收藏的和田出土汉文社会经济文书,为我们展示了于阗当地社会经济生活的基本面貌,以及镇守军与当地社会经济关系的一些侧面。我们看到,于阗镇守军向当地百姓收取"正税"、"驮脚钱"以及实物等各种税赋,镇守军已经切实地掌握了于阗当地百姓户数和男丁的统计信息。通过文书可以了解于阗经神山至拨换城的道路上"馆"的一些情形,同时可以看到守捉管理递马的情况。另外,还可以看到于阗镇守军的镇兵也有不少是携带家口居住在于阗,这些家口的相关事务,可能是由兵马使来负责。我们还可以透过文书了解民间社会经济生活的一些细节。
