Performance comparison of some discrete service time systems

This paper analyzes and compares the slotted time operation and the non-slotted time operation of a singleserver system with deterministic service time. These two operations are commonly used to model discrete service time systems in computer or digital communications. But due to the similarity in their operations and performance, the two models may be mixed up with each other. This paper examines by means of queueing analysis the performance of a few classes of systems that differ in the service order of their customers. The means and variances of the queue lengths, waiting times and interdeparture times of FCFS systems using the slotted time operations are first obtained from their respective LST and generating function equations. These are then used for comparison with those in non-slotted time systems. The results show that although the slotted time operation in the FCFS systems can be approximated by the non-slotted time operations under heavy traffic condition, the performances under other regions and service disciplines (e.g., the LCFS and the priority systems) may deviate significantly. They must be properly adjusted if one wishes to use the simpler equations of the non-slotted time operations to approximate the slotted time operations. The comparison graphs provided in this paper supply adjustments guidelines for the careful designers.

阴极开放式质子交换膜燃料电池实验性研究

本文围绕实验室自制的开放式阴极自增湿型质子交换膜燃料电池开展了大量相关实验,采用FLUKETi25红外温度成像仪测得了各种操作条件下电池表面温度分布图像。实验结果表明：在封闭式阳极（anodedead—end）操作条件下,液态水会在阳极逐渐积累而影响反应气的传质,造成电池输出性能的衰减。通过阳极排气可以使电池性能恢复。纵观电堆表面温度分布情况,总体呈现出沿氢气流道方向递增的趋势,且随着电流密度的增大,这种温度分布的不均匀性变得更加明显。在实验所测试的范围内,电堆的平均输出功率密度达到了583mW／cm2。

Consistency retention method for CNC machine tool digital twin model

Computer Numerical Control Machine Tool (CNCMT) Digital Twin (DT) model is a carrier for complex, time-varying, coupled data of CNCMT, which can theoretically provide a time-varying high-fidelity model. However, there are still many difficulties in its implementation process. And the key issue is how to realize the updated DT model with performance attenuation and validate it. In order to solve this problem, a model consistency retention method for CNCMT DT model is studied and proposed in this paper. Firstly, the framework of consistency retention method for DT model is designed including both digital space and physical space. The principles of data management and performance attenuation update in digital space are elaborated. Then, the implementation method for consistency retention of CNCMT DT model is studied in terms of performance attenuation update workflow for wear and other damage separately. Finally, a case study for the establishment and application of high-fidelity test bench DT model that focusing on rolling guide-rail is carried out to show the implementation flow of the proposed method and verify its operability and effectiveness.

A new model of job design: Initial evidence and implications for future research

Clegg and Spencer's (2007) model of job design synthesizes and extends recent conceptions of the job design process by incorporating variables such as knowledge, motivation, and trust into a cyclical and dynamic system. The objective of this study was to examine the sequential organization of variables that comprise the model, as a basis from which to justify further investigations of the model's dynamic properties. Data were collected via questionnaires from 432 participants in two work organizations. Results obtained from structural equation modeling are broadly supportive of the proposed relationships between the variables. Implications of this initial study for future research and practice are discussed. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

A comparative study between dynamic adapted PSO and VNS for the vehicle routing problem with dynamic requests

Combinatorial optimization problems are usually modeled in a static fashion. In this kind of problems, all data are known in advance, i.e. before the optimization process has started. However, in practice, many problems are dynamic, and change while the optimization is in progress. For example, in the dynamic vehicle routing problem (DVRP), new orders arrive when the working day plan is in progress. In this case, routes must be reconfigured dynamically while executing the current simulation. The DVRP is an extension of a conventional routing problem, its main interest being the connection to many real word applications (repair services, courier mail services, dial-a-ride services, etc.). In this article, a DVRP is examined, and solving methods based on particle swarm optimization and variable neighborhood search paradigms are proposed. The performance of both approaches is evaluated using a new set of benchmarks that we introduce here as well as existing benchmarks in the literature. Finally, we measure the behavior of both methods in terms of dynamic adaptation.     

SIMCAN: A flexible, scalable and expandable simulation platform for modelling and simulating distributed architectures and applications

In this paper we propose a new simulation platform called SIMCAN, for analyzing parallel and distributed systems. This platform is aimed to test parallel and distributed architectures and applications. The main characteristics of SIMCAN are flexibility, accuracy, performance, and scalability. Thence, the proposed platform has a modular design that eases the integration of different basic systems on a single architecture. Its design follows a hierarchical schema that includes simple modules, basic systems (computing, memory managing, I/O, and networking), physical components (nodes, switches, …), and aggregations of components. New modules may also be incorporated as well to include new strategies and components. Also, a graphical configuration tool has been developed to help untrained users with the task of modelling new architectures. Finally, a validation process and some evaluation tests have been performed to evaluate the SIMCAN platform.
