The interesting phenomenon and its influence on the solidification microstructure were investigated in order to better study the mechanism of UST. It is considered that the overflowing phenomenon occurs due to the changes of vibration and flow in the remaining semisolid. Because the overflowed portion comes from the region with intense UST effect and vibrates with the probe during solidification, great modification of primary and euteetic Si (about 10 pm in length) and refinement of primary a(Al) (about 70 μm in size) are observed in this portion.展开更多

The channel allocation scheme was analyzed using both horizontal channel borrowing and vertical traffic overflowing. Pre-emptive priority strategies are used to classify real-time services and non-real-time services, real-time service is given higher priority for it is allowed to pre-empt channels used by non-real-time service. Some channel borrowing thresholds and acceptance ratios are used to avoid channel locking or dynamic power control, which can also be dynamically adjusted according to network load. Simulation results show that the proposed schemes can improve the system performance.展开更多

When the integer overflow refers to the size of the buffer allocated dynamically, this kind of integer overflow is most likely to trigger buffer overflow. Based on this discovery, through lightly static program analysis, the solution traces the key variables referring to the size of a buffer allocated dynamically and it maintains the upper bound and lower bound of these variables. After the constraint information of these traced variables is inserted into the original program, this method tests the program with test cases through path relaxation, which means that it not only reports the errors revealed by the current runtime value of traced variables contained in the test case, but it also examines the errors possibly occurring under the same execution path with all the possible values of the traced variables. The effectiveness of this method is demonstrated in a case study. Compared with the traditional buffer overflow detection methods, this method reduces the burden of detection and improves efficiency.展开更多
