Topologic connectivity in the accessible rings appears to be broken;traffic axis network is in spatial structure of hub-and-spoke and fishbone-like. Meanwhile, the differences in classified road network have led to inefficiency of its network servo and its ever-worsening capability to respond to traffic jams. Besides, two band-like integrated cores of which one is east to west along the Yangtze River and the other is north to south along Beijing to Guangzhou Railway, have become the first level traffic axis in the whole network, which is responsible for the connectivity of the entire metropolitan area network. This consequently has strengthened the dominant position of Wuhan which is located on the bands’ crossing. In short, the spatial accessibility of that classified space morphology, the urban system, the transport infrastructure as well as the social and economic development of Wuhan Metropolitan Area are highly interrelated to each other, especially to the high level highway network featured by freeways, the development level of which is well in line with that of road network accessibility.展开更多

Neural Network based Cellular Automata models have proved to predict the urban growth more close to reality. Recently, deep learning based techniques are being used for the prediction of urban growth. In this current study, urban growth of Chennai Metropolitan Area (CMA) of 2017 was predicted using Neural Network based Cellular Automata (NN-CA) model and Deep belief based Cellular Automata (DB-CA) model using 2010 and 2013 urban maps. Since the study area experienced congested type of urban growth, “Existing Built-Up” of 2013 alone was used as the agent of urbanization to predict urban growth in 2017. Upon validating, DB-CA model proved to be the better model, as it predicted 524.14 km2 of the study area as urban with higher accuracy (kappa co-efficient: 0.73) when compared to NN-CA model which predicted only 502.42 km2 as urban (kappa co-efficient: 0.71), while the observed urban cover of CMA in 2017 was 572.11 km2. This study also aimed at analyzing the effects of different types of neighbourhood configurations (Rectangular: 3 × 3, 5 × 5, 7 × 7 and Circular: 3 × 3) on the prediction output based on DB-CA model. To understand the direction and type of the urban growth, the study area was divided into five distance based zones with the State Secretariat as the center and entropy values were calculated for the zones. Results reveal that Chennai Corporation and its periphery experience congested urbanization whereas areas away from the Corporation boundary follow dispersed type of urban growth in 2017.展开更多

Multi-agent system for Worm Detection and Containment in MAN (MWDCM) is presented to provide a first-class automatic reaction mechanism that automatically applies containment strategies to block the propagation of the worms and to protect MAN against worm scan that wastes a lot of network bandwidth and crashes the routers. Its user agent is used to detect the known worms. Worm detection agent and worm detection correlation agent use two-stage based decision method to detect unknown worms. They adaptively study the accessing in the whole network and dynamically change the working parameters to detect the unknown worms. MWDCM confines worm infection within a macro-cell or a micro-cell of the metropolitan area networks, the rest of the accesses and hosts continue functioning without disruption. MWDCM integrates Worm Detection System (WDS) and network management system. Reaction measures can be taken by using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) interface to control broadband access server as soon as the WDS detect the active worm. MWDCM is very effective in blocking random scanning worms. Simulation results indicate that high worm infection rate of epidemics can be avoided to a degree by MWDCM blocking the propagation of the worms.展开更多
