As a data-centric cache-enabled architecture, Named Data Networking (NDN) is considered to be an appropriate alternative to the current host-centric IP-based Internet infrastructure. Leveraging in- network caching, name-based routing, and receiver-driven sessions, NDN can greatly enhance the way Internet resources are being used. A critical issue in NDN is the procedure of cache allocation and management. Our main contribution in this research is the analysis of memory requirements to allocate suitable Content-Store size to NDN routers, with respect to combined impacts of long-term centrality-based metric and Exponential Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) of short-term parameters such as users behaviours and outgoing traffic. To determine correlations in such large data sets, data mining methods can prove valuable to researchers. In this paper, we apply a data-fusion approach, namely Principal Component Analysis (PCA), to discover relations from short- and long-term parameters of the router. The output of PCA, exploited to mine out raw data sets, is used to allocate a proper cache size to the router. Evaluation results show an increase in the hit ratio of Content-Stores in sources, and NDN routers. Moreover, for the proposed cache size allocation scheme, the number of unsatisfied and pending Interests in NDN routers is smaller than the Degree-Centrality cache size scheme. 相似文献
The behavior of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthened reinforced concrete beams subjected to torsional loads has not been well understood compared to other loads. Interaction of different components of concrete, steel, and FRP in addition to the complex compatibility issues associated with torsional deformations have made it difficult to provide an accurate analytical solution. In this paper an analytical method is introduced for evaluation of the torsional capacity of FRP strengthened RC beams. In this method, the interaction of different components is allowed by fulfilling equilibrium and compatibility conditions throughout the loading regime while the ultimate torque of the beam is calculated similarly to the well-known compression field theory. It is shown that the method is capable of predicting the ultimate torque of FRP-strengthened RC beams reasonably accurately. 相似文献
Choosing a trusted cloud service provider (CSP) is a major challenge for cloud users (CUs) in the cloud environment, as many CSPs offer cloud services (CSs) with the same functionality. Trust evaluation of CSPs is often based on information from quality of service (QoS) monitoring and CUs’ feedback ratings. Despite the volume of feedback ratings received in trust management systems, the quality of feedback storage is very low, as many CUs do not send their feedback ratings when using CSs. Additionally, a percentage of existing feedback ratings may not be valid, since some malicious CUs send unfair feedback ratings to change the trust evaluation results. As these lead to poor data quality, the accuracy of trust evaluation results might be affected. To overcome these limitations, this paper proposes a new multi-level trust management framework, which completes previous frameworks by defining new components to improve the data quality of feedback storage. In our framework, new components were defined to solve the invalidity and sparse problems of feedback storage. Certainly, the trust assessment of CSP would be more accurate based on high-quality feedback ratings. The performance of the MLTM was evaluated using two different datasets based on a real Quality of Web Services dataset (QWS) and an artificial data set (Cloud-Armor), whose quality was reduced for the purpose of this study. Analytical values revealed that our proposed approach significantly outperformed other approaches even with the poor data quality of feedback storage.
Nanocrystalline calcium aluminate (CaO.2Al2O3) was prepared by a simple co-precipitation method using Poly (ethylene glycol)-block-poly(propylene glycol)-block poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG-PPG-PEG, MW:5800) as surfactant and employed as catalyst support for nickel catalysts in methane reforming with carbon dioxide. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption (BET), Temperature programmed reduction and oxidation (TPR-TPO) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques. The results showed that the prepared support has a high potential as support for nickel catalysts in methane reforming with carbon dioxide. The results showed high catalytic activity and stability for the prepared catalysts. Among the prepared catalysts 15% Ni/CaO.2Al2O3 was the most active catalyst and showed the highest affinity for carbon formation. In addition, 7% Ni/CaO.2Al2O3 possessed high catalytic stability during 50 h time on stream. The TPO analysis revealed that increasing in nickel content increased the amount of deposited carbon over the spent catalysts. SEM results detected only whisker type of carbon for all spent catalysts. 相似文献
Autothermal reforming (ATR) of methane was carried out over nanocrystalline Al2O3‐supported Ni catalysts with various Ni loadings. Mesoporous nanocrystalline γ‐Al2O3 powder with high specific surface area was prepared by the sol‐gel method and employed as support for the nickel catalysts. The prepared samples were characterized by X‐ray diffraction, Brunauer‐Emmett‐Teller, temperature‐programmed reduction, temperature‐programmed hydrogenation, and scanning electron microscopy techniques. It is demonstrated that the methane conversion increased with increasing in Ni content and that the catalyst with 25 wt % Ni exhibited the highest activity and a stable catalytic performance in the ATR process, with a low degree of carbon formation. Furthermore, the effects of the reaction temperature, the calcination temperature, the steam/CH4 and O2/CH4 ratios, and the gas hourly space velocity on the catalytic performance of the 25 % Ni/Al2O3 catalyst were investigated. 相似文献
