基于改进Sparse Indexing的多负载消冗方法

针对现有的Sparse Indexing方法不能有效处理小文件备份负载的问题,提出了一种以Broder扩展定理为理论依据的最小特征采样算法,该算法可以对不同形式的备份负载进行有效的特征采样。在此算法的基础上,设计了一种多负载重复数据消除方法,该方法通过对备份负载进行特征采样,仅在内存中维护完整索引的一个很小的子集,并通过批量读入分块标识符,摊销了磁盘访问开销,提高了吞吐量。实验结果表明,该方法对混合备份负载的压缩比是Sparse Indexing的2.04倍,而吞吐量与Sparse Indexing相当。该方法适用于需要处理多种形式备份负载的高性能重复数据消除系统。

DYNAMIC RESPONSE OF ROLLER GEAR INDEXING CAM SYSTEM CONSIDERING CLEARANCE AND MOTOR CHARACTERISTIC

The dynamic responses of roller gear indexing cam mechanism are investigated .With applying Lagarange equation and Gear method,motion equations of this mechanism including clearance,motor characteristic,torsion flexibility are developed and solved.The results show that clearance affects primarily the response on turret,and has little effects on the responses on rotary table.At the same time,the velocity fluctuation of motor shaft is not serious for the existence of inertia of reducer,and the high frequency of velocity fluctuation of camshaft is related with the torsion stiffness of shaft and the clearance between pairs.

Compressive Sensing Approach in Multicarrier Sparsely Indexing Modulation Systems

recently the indexed modulation(IM) technique in conjunction with the multi-carrier modulation gains an increasing attention. It conveys additional information on the subcarrier indices by activating specific subcarriers in the frequency domain besides the conventional amplitude-phase modulation of the activated subcarriers. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) with IM(OFDM-IM) is deeply compared with the classical OFDM. It leads to an attractive trade-off between the spectral efficiency(SE) and the energy efficiency(EE). In this paper, the concept of the combinatorial modulation is introduced from a new point of view. The sparsity mapping is suggested intentionally to enable the compressive sensing(CS) concept in the data recovery process to provide further performance and EE enhancement without SE loss. Generating artificial data sparsity in the frequency domain along with naturally embedded channel sparsity in the time domain allows joint data recovery and channel estimation in a double sparsity framework. Based on simulation results, the performance of the proposed approach agrees with the predicted CS superiority even under low signal-to-noise ratio without channel coding. Moreover, the proposed sparsely indexed modulation system outperforms the conventional OFDM system and the OFDM-IM system in terms of error performance, peak-to-average power ratio(PAPR) and energy efficiency under the same spectral efficiency.

Structural Indexing for 3D Solid Digital Library

In a very large digital library that support computer aided collaborative design, an indexing process is crucial whenever the retrieval process has to select among many possible designs. In this paper, we address the problem of retrieving important design and engineering information by structural indexing. A design is represented by a model dependency graph, therefor, the indexing problem is to determine whether a graph is present or absent in a database of model dependency graphs. we present a novel graph indexing method using polynomial characterization of a model dependency graph and on hashing. Such an approach is able to create an high efficient 3D solid digital library for retrieving and extracting solid geometric model and engineering information.

Melanophore Indexing:A New Bio-assay Technique for the Analysis of Acute Heavy Metal (HgCl_2) Toxicity

Toxicity of 0.3 ppm (96 h LC50 value) and 0.03 ppm of mercuric chloride on the melanophores of the skin at different time intervals has been studied. Mercury treatment causes immediate increase in the number and size of the pigment cells. Subsequently these pigment cells form a dense matting of melanophore network with their cell processes intellacing with those of their neighbours. These cells later show degeneration and lysis releasing large quantity of pigment granules into the intercellular spaces in the dermis.Later the pigment cells regenerate several times each followed by degeneration in a cyclic manner. Prolonged treatment with subletha. concentration of mercuric chloride does not show significant alteration in the melanophore density and size. Statistical analysis and wide spread destruction of melanophores observed during 4-6 days of exPosure might help in testing water samples contaminated with lethal concentration of heavy metal salts

Spatial/temporal indexing and information visualization genre for environmental digital libraries

Protecting and preserving our environmental systems require the ability to understand the spatio-temporal distri- bution of soils, parent material, topography, and land cover as well as the effects of human activities on ecosystems. Space-time modelling of ecosystems in an environmental digital library is essential for visualizing past, present, and future impacts of changes occurring within such landscapes (e.g., shift in land use practices). In this paper, we describe three novel features, spa- tio-temporal indexing, visualization, and geostatistical genre, for the environmental digital library, Environmental Visualization and Geographic Enterprise System (ENVISAGE), currently in progress at the University of Florida.

A new approach for effectively determining fracture network connec- tions in fractured rocks using R tree indexing

Determinations of fracture network connections would help the investigators remove those ＂meaningless＂ no-flow-passing fractures, providing an updated and more effective fracture network that could considerably improve the computation efficiency in the pertinent numerical simulations of fluid flow and solute transport. The effective algorithms with higher computational efficiency are needed to accomplish this task in large-scale fractured rock masses. A new approach using R tree indexing was proposed for determining fracture connection in 3D stochastically distributed fracture network. By com- paring with the traditional exhaustion algorithm, it was observed that from the simulation results, this approach was much more effective; and the more the fractures were investigated, the more obvious the advantages of the approach were. Furthermore, it was indicated that the runtime used for creating the R tree indexing has a major part in the total of the runtime used for calculating Minimum Bounding Rectangles （MBRs）, creating the R tree indexing, precisely finding out fracture intersections, and identifying flow paths, which are four important steps to determine fracture connections. This proposed approach for the determination of fracture connections in three-dimensional fractured rocks are expected to provide efficient preprocessing and critical database for practically accomplishing numerical computation of fluid flow and solute transport in large-scale fractured rock masses.

Study on semantic-oriented hybrid indexing strategy of resource metadata in peer-to-peer network

Applying ontology to describe resource metadata richly in the peer-to-peer environment has become current research trend. In this semantic peer-to-peer environment, indexing semantic element of resource description to support efficient resource location is a difficult and challenging problem. This paper provided a hybrid indexing architecture, which combines local indexing and global indexing. It uses community strategy and semantic routing strategy to organize key layer metadata element and uses DHT (distributed hash table) to index extensional layer metadata element. Compared with related system, this approach is more efficient in resource location and more scalable.

Prediction for Dynamic Characteristics of Ring-Plate Planetary Indexing Cam Mechanism

This paper is aimed to propose an approach to predict the dynamic characteristics of ring-plate planetary indexing cam mechanism, which is a novel type of indexing mechanism that employs internal planetary transmission structure. Firstly, the geometry and structure of the mechanism are discussed and the kinematic practicability is simulated with virtual prototype design. Then a 3D finite element model of the ring-plate planetary indexing cam mechanism is developed with the commercial software of MATLAB and ANSYS. Through the finite element analysis, the natural frequencies and the corresponding mode shapes are predicted in one motion cycle. On the basis of the virtual prototype design and finite element analysis, an experimental prototype is made and tested to validate the prediction of the dynamic characteristics. The agreement between experimental results and the finite element analysis testifies that the finite element model developed is applicable to the prediction of the dynamic characteristics of this type of mechanism.

Ambient Air Quality Surveillance and Indexing in and around Mining Clusters in Western Kachchh Region, Gujarat, India

Generation of baseline information about ambient air quality of any given region assumes significance, when the area is 1) an active mine site, 2) proposed to be mined out in future, and 3) industrialization in the area is in fast pace. Ambient air quality monitoring (with respect to SPM, RPM, SO2, NOx and CO) was carried out in and around two mining complexes in western parts of Kachchh district in Gujarat to generate baseline air quality status of the area. This area has two major mine complexes and various large scale industrial projects (thermal power plants, cement plants and several ports and jetties) are also in pipeline. Ambient air sampling was carried out in eight locations within five km radial distance from two major mine sites, i.e. Panandhro and Mata-na-Madh, with four locations for each mine site. Air Quality Indexing was done for all the locations, since it is a simplest way for the prediction of ambient air quality status of any region with respect to industrial, residential and rural areas. Of the eight locations studied the air quality for six locations fell under fairly clean (Light Air Pollution, AQI 25-50) category, while the rest (rural areas in the region), had relatively better air quality and fell under clean (Clean Air, AQI 10-25) category.

HMIBase: An Hierarchical Indexing System for Storing and Querying Big Data

Relational database management systems are usually deployed on singlenode machines and have strict limitations in terms of da ta structure. This means they do not work well with big data, and NoSQL has been proposed as a solution. To make data querying more efficient, indexes and memory cache techniques are used in NoSQL databases. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical in dexing mechanism and a prototype distributed datastorage system, called HMIBase, which has hierarchical indexes for nonprima ry keys in tables and makes data querying more efficient. HMIBase uses HBase as the lower data storage and creates a memory cache for more efficient data transmission. HMIBase supports coprocessortoprocess update requests. It also provides a client with query and update APIs and a server to support RPCs from the client and finish jobs. To improve the cache hit ratio, we propose a memory cache replacement strategy, called Hot Score algorithm, in HMIBase. The experimental results show that Hot Score algo rithm is better than other cachereplacement strategies.

Deep Root Memory Optimized Indexing Methodology for Image Search Engines

Digitization has created an abundance of new information sources by altering how pictures are captured.Accessing large image databases from a web portal requires an opted indexing structure instead of reducing the contents of different kinds of databases for quick processing.This approach paves a path toward the increase of efficient image retrieval techniques and numerous research in image indexing involving large image datasets.Image retrieval usually encounters difficulties like a)merging the diverse representations of images and their Indexing,b)the low-level visual characters and semantic characters associated with an image are indirectly proportional,and c)noisy and less accurate extraction of image information(semantic and predicted attributes).This work clearly focuses and takes the base of reverse engineering and de-normalizing concept by evaluating how data can be stored effectively.Thus,retrieval becomes straightforward and rapid.This research also deals with deep root indexing with a multidimensional approach about how images can be indexed and provides improved results in terms of good performance in query processing and the reduction of maintenance and storage cost.We focus on the schema design on a non-clustered index solution,especially cover queries.This schema provides a filter predication to make an index with a particular content of rows and an index table called filtered indexing.Finally,we include non-key columns in addition to the key columns.Experiments on two image data sets‘with and without’filtered indexing show low query cost.We compare efficiency as regards accuracy in mean average precision to measure the accuracy of retrieval with the developed coherent semantic indexing.The results show that retrieval by using deep root indexing is simple and fast.

Analytic Methods for Quality Control of Scientific Publications Part VI: Presentation in Research Gate, Journal Indexing, and Recognition

In the world of science, recognition of scientific performance is strongly correlated with publication visibility and interest generated among other researchers, which is evident by downloads and citations. A published paper’s number of downloads and citations are the best indices of its importance and are useful measures of the researchers’ performance. However, the published paper should be valuated and indexed independently, and the prestige of the journal in which it is published should not influence the value of the paper itself. By participating in and presenting at congresses and international meetings, scientists strongly increase the visibility of their results and recognition of their research;this also promotes their publications. Status in Research Gate (RG), the so-called RG Score, the Percentile, and the h-index give researchers feedback about their performance, or their place and prestige within the scientific community. RG has become an excellent tool for disseminating scientific results and connecting researchers worldwide. RG also allows researchers to present achievements other than publications (e.g., membership in recognized associations such as the American Chemist Society, a biography in Marquis Who’s Who in the World, awards received, and/or ongoing projects). This paper discusses questions regarding how the RG Score, Percentile, and h-index are calculated, whether these methods are correct, and alternative criteria. RG also lists papers with falsified results and the journals that publish them. Thus, it may be appropriate to reduce the indices for such journals, authors, and the institutions with which these authors are affiliated.

Context Based Adoption of Ranking and Indexing Measures for Cricket Team Ranks

There is an international cricket governing body that ranks the expertise of all the cricket playing nations,known as the International Cricket Council(ICC).The ranking system followed by the ICC relies on the winnings and defeats of the teams.The model used by the ICC to implement rankings is deficient in certain key respects.It ignores key factors like winning margin and strength of the opposition.Various measures of the ranking concept are presented in this research.The proposed methods adopt the concepts of h-Index and PageRank for presenting more comprehensive ranking metrics.The proposed approaches not only rank the teams on their losing/winning stats but also take into consideration the margin of winning and the quality of the opposition.Three cricket team ranking techniques are presented i.e.,(1)Cricket Team-Index(ct-index),(2)Cricket Team Rank(CTR)and(3)Weighted Cricket Team Rank(WCTR).The proposed metrics are validated through the collection of cricket dataset,extracted from Cricinfo,having instances for all the three formats of the game i.e.,T20 International(T20i),One Day International(ODI)and Test matches.The comparative analysis between the proposed and existing techniques,for all the three formats,is presented as well.

Chinese Keyword Search by Indexing in Relational Databases

In this paper, we propose a new method based on index to realize IR-style Chinese keyword search with ranking strategies in relational databases. This method creates an index by using the related information of tuple words and presents a ranking strategy in terms of the nature of Chinese words. For a Chinese keyword query, the index is used to match query search words and the tuple words in index quickly, and to compute similarities between the query and tuples by the ranking strategy, and then the set of identifiers of candidate tuples is generated. Thus, we retrieve top-N results of the query using SQL selection statements and output the ranked answers according to the similarities. The experimental results show that our method is efficient and effective.
