Zhiwen Hu,Huaqing Mao,Li Zhu 보안공학연구지원센터 2016 International Journal of Grid and Distributed Comp Vol.9 No.5

With the full swing of computer technology, evacuation models are constructed and simulated via computers to study the various phenomena and behaviors during the evacuation process. They open unique potential opportunity to evaluate the architectural design and provide the decision support for the emergency evacuation plans. This paper details a capacity constrained route planner (CCRP) algorithm, which is used to optimize evacuation path, and the distance map based on sub-goal cellular automata (CA) is also proposed to simulate the evacuation scenarios. Two evacuation scenarios are further discussed, and the experimental results strongly suggested that the sub-goal CA model could simulate the evacuation scenarios and evaluate the emergency evacuation plans effectively and finally help us penetrate to the essence of reality.

Objective: We aimed to investigate the effect of the differing amino acid (AA) release dynamics of two protein sources on the growth performance, nitrogen deposition, plasma biochemical parameters, and muscle synthesis and degradation of piglets when included in their diets at normal and low concentrations. Methods: Forty-eight piglets (Duroc×Landrace×Large White) with initial body weight of 7.45±0.58 kg were assigned to six groups and fed one of 6 diets. The 6 dietary treatments were arranged by 3×2 factorial with 3 protein sources and 2 dietary protein levels. They are NCAS (a normal protein content with casein), NBlend (a normal protein content with blend of casein and corn gluten meal), NCGM (a normal protein content with corn gluten meal), LCAS (a low protein content with casein), LBlend (a low protein content with blend of casein and corn gluten meal), LCGM (a low protein content with corn gluten meal). The release dynamics of AA in these diets were determined by in vitro digestion. The digestibility, utilization and biological value of nitrogen in piglets were determined by micro Kjeldahl method. Plasma insulin was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits. The protein expression of mediators of muscle synthesis and degradation was determined by western blotting. Results: Although the consumption of a low-protein diet supplemented with crystalline AA was associated with greater nitrogen digestion and utilization (p<0.05), the final body weight, growth performance, nitrogen deposition, and phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 kinase 1 and eIF4E binding protein 1 in the muscle of pigs in the low-protein diet-fed groups were lower than those of the normal-protein diet-fed groups (p<0.05) because of the absence of non-essential AA. Because of the more balanced release of AA, the casein (CAS) and Blend-fed groups showed superior growth performance, final body weight and nitrogen deposition, and lower expression of muscle ring finger 1 and muscle atrophy F-box than the CGM-fed groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: We conclude that the balanced release of AA from CAS containing diets and mixed diets could reduce muscle degradation, favor nitrogen retention, % intake and improve growth performance in pigs consuming either a normal- or low-protein diet.

To improve the sensing performance, cooperation among secondary users can be utilized to collect space diversity. In this paper, we focus on the optimization of cooperative spectrum sensing in which multiple cognitive users efficiently cooperate to achieve superior detection accuracy with minimum sensing error probability in multiple cross-over cognitive radio networks. The analysis focuses on two fusion strategies: soft information fusion and hard information fusion. Under soft information fusion, the optimal threshold of the energy detector is derived in both noncooperative single-user and cooperative multiuser sensing scenarios. Under hard information fusion, the optimal randomized rule and the optimal decision threshold are derived according to the rule of minimum sensing error (MSE). MSE rule shows better performance on improving the final false alarm and detection probability simultaneously. By simulations, our proposed strategy optimizes the sensing performance for each cognitive user which is randomly distributed in the multiple cross-over cognitive radio networks.

Ocean exploitation has entered full ocean depth era. However, frequent marine geological disasters seriously restrict its development. Due to the complex marine engineering geology environment, in-situ observation has become an important means of submarine engineering survey. Based on the common types of marine geological disasters in marine engineering activities, this paper introduces the marine engineering geological survey and in-situ monitoring technology and its application from the perspective of marine engineering geological environment and dynamic action, so as to provide new ideas for the study of marine geological disasters in China.
