Softswitch Based Solution to Make Network Intelligent

The factors, such as the network optimization or the network amelioration by fixed telecommunication network operators, the convergence of the Personal Handy-phone System (PHS) network and the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), the integration of PSTN and the Third Generation Mobile Communication (3G) Network, the broadband and multimedia based communication networks, causes the requirement for fixed network’s intelligentization. The Softswitch is a feasible approach to meet this kind of requirement. The solution to make the network comprehensively intelligent based on Softswitch is highly advantageous, which enriches communication services and promotes Fixed and Mobile Convergence (FMC).

How to Make "Web Intelligence (WI) Meets Brain Informatics (BI)" Successfully﹖

Recently, we gave a new perspective of Web Intelligence (WI) research from the viewpoint of Brain Informatics (BI), a new interdisciplinary field that studies the mechanisms of human information processing from both the macro and micro viewpoints by combining experimental cognitive neuroscience with advanced information technology.We argue that new instruments like fMRI and information technology will revolutionize both Web intelligence and brain science. This revolution will be bi-directional: new understanding of human intelligence through brain science will yield a new generation of Web intelligence research and development, and Web intelligence portal techniques will provide a powerful new platform for brain science. The ultimate goal is to establish the foundation of WI towards human-level Web intelligence. In this talk, we investigate how to make such a study successfully.

Appraisal of the Production-Oriented Approach： An Introduction

The production-oriented approach （POA） has been developed over a decade. It is driven by the need to improve English classroom instruction for university students in China （Wen, 2016）. It is also motivated by the aspiration to enhance the quality of foreign language education in other similar pedagogical contexts outside China. A volume of research has been done by Wen Qiufang and her research team, to formulate the theory of POA and to test its effectiveness in classroom pedagogy （e.g. Wen, 2016, 2015; Yang, 2015; Zhang, 2015）. At the moment, the POA is still at an early stage of theory building and almost all empirical research is done in the Chinese context. In order to improve the quality of this theory and to make it intelligible to the international academic community, a one-day symposium was held in Beijing Foreign Studies University on May 15, 2017. The symposium was entitled ＇The first international forum on innovative foreign language education in China： Appraisal of the POA＇. In the forum, leading experts in applied linguistics were invited to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the POA and the directions for its future development. The symposium was the first attempt for the POA research team to discuss its latest work with international scholars. This Viewpoint section collects the responses of four experts who participated in the symposium, listed in alphabetical order. The collection of articles covers three topics related to the POA： its pedagogical application, its use for teacher training, and its research. Alister Cumming is Professor Emeritus and the former Head of the Centre for Educational Research on Languages and Literacies, University of Toronto, Canada. His article focuses primarily on POA research as an exemplary case of design-based research. Rod Ellis is Research Professor in the School of Education at Curtin University, Australia. He discusses POA in terms of pedagogy, teacher training and research, with both critiques and constructive suggestions. Paul Kei Matsuda is Professor of English and Director of Second Language Writing at Arizona State University, the writed states. He responds to POA from the perspective of an expert researcher and teacher of L2 writing. Charlene Polio is Professor and Associate Chair in the Department of Linguistics ＆ Germanic, Slavic, Asian ＆ African Languages atMichigan State University, the writed states. She conceptualises POA as a useful method to address some issues in pre-service teacher development. Overall, the articles in this section are insightful and reader-friendly. They are not only useful for the development of POA in particular, but may also be valuable to a broad range of researchers as they touch upon pertaining issues, as well as emerging topics, in the field of applied linguistics. We therefore find it necessary to make them accessible to a wide readership.
