一种PN码自适应捕获门限的改进算法

文献[1]提出了一种用于直扩系统的PN码自适应门限算法。但该文献也指出,此算法对门限总数十分敏感。当门限总数设置不当时,系统的平均捕获时间将显著增加。这限制了该算法在实际中的应用。本文就此提出了改进,给出了算法及电路框图。仿真结果表明,与原方案相比,改进算法改善了对门限总数的敏感性,降低了PN码平均捕获时间。     

Strain-induced ordering of microdomain structures in polystyrene-block-polybutadiene-block-polystyrene triblock copolymers cross-linked in the disordered state

Strain-induced ordering of microdomain structures in cross-linked polystyrene-block-polybutadiene-block-polystyrene (SBS) triblock copolymers was examined by the small-angle X-ray scattering technique. To stretch the SBS samples at elevated temperature above the glass transition temperature of polystyrene, polybutadiene blocks were chemically cross-linked in the disordered state. The initial morphology was disorder-like or bicontinuous due to incompletion of microphase separation in the presence of the chemical cross-links. When the cross-linked SBS samples were mechanically stretched at 130 °C and were further annealed for 24 h under a stretched state, the random domain structures ordered gradually and lamellar-like regularity was finally attained. It was found that the ordering proceeded more for the case of the higher strain.     

浅谈省级法人单位基础信息库建设模式

在信息化建设中,信息资源的开发和利用是信息化建设的核心内容。建设法人单位基础信息库（下简称法人库）,其目的就是整合、共享作为社会活动两大主体之一的法人单位的基础信息。而建设法人库既涉及技术标准,又涉及管理体制问题。为提高法人库建设的实际效果,选定切合实际的建设模式尤其重要。本文重点介绍“集中式”和“分布式”两种法人库建设模式的各自特点和适用环境。     

Solving the irregular strip packing problem via guided local search for overlap minimization

The irregular strip-packing problem (ISP) requires a given set of non-convex polygons to be placed without overlap within a rectangular container having a fixed width and a variable length, which is to be minimized. As a core sub-problem to solve ISP, we consider an overlap minimization problem (OMP) whose objective is to place all polygons into a container with given width and length so that the total amount of overlap between polygons is made as small as possible. We propose to use directional penetration depths to measure the amount of overlap between a pair of polygons, and present an efficient algorithm to find a position with the minimum overlap for each polygon when it is translated in a specified direction. Based on this, we develop a local search algorithm for OMP that translates a polygon in horizontal and vertical directions alternately. Then we incorporate it in our algorithm for OMP, which is a variant of the guided local search algorithm. Computational results show that our algorithm improves the best-known values of some well-known benchmark instances.     

Defect distribution near abraded surface of III–V compound semiconductors

Microstructures of damaged layers near the abraded surface of GaP, GaAs_0.6P_0.4 and GaAs single crystals have been observed with a transmission electron microscope. The damage due to 0.3 m Al₂O₃ abrasion consists of dislocations. Dislocation densities in the abrasion band and other regions are larger than 5×10¹¹ cm^–2 and about 10¹¹ cm^–2, respectively. Dislocation density decreases with increasing distance (depth) from the abraded surface. The depths of the damage layers for GaP, GaAs_0.6P_0.4 and GaAs are about 0.4, 0.55, and 0.8 m, respectively. The Burgers vector of dislocations is a/2[1 1 0], and A and B dislocations are observed. During annealing, the dislocations are rearranged and eliminated by the reaction of the dislocations with different Burgers vectors and climbing motion. The rearrangement temperatures for dislocations in GaP and GaAs are about 500 and 450° C, respectively. Electrical resistance changes in the damaged layer of GaP are recognized by electrical resistance measurements.     

Comparisons of optimal release policies for software systems

In a software product management, it is an important problem to determine the optimal release timing which minimizes the total expected cost incurred in both testing and operation phases. In this paper, we compare the performance between two kinds of software release methods, which are referred to as the T-policy and the N-policy. Based on the existing software reliability growth models, we formulate the expected cost functions and derive analytically the optimal policies under these control methods. Also, we derive a criterion for which control methods should be adopted. Finally, in numerical examples, we calculate the optimal release policies for several cost parameters.     

Fabrication and flow-sensor application of flexible thermal MEMS device based on Cu on polyimide substrate

A Cu on polyimide (COP) substrate was proposed as a MEMS material, and the fabrication process for a flexible thermal MEMS sensor was developed. The COP substrate application to MEMS devices has the advantage that typical MEMS structures fabricated in a SOI wafer in the past—such as a diaphragm, a beam, a heater formed on a diaphragm—can also be easily produced in the COP substrate in the flexible fashion. These structures can be used as the sensing element in various physical sensors, such as flow, acceleration, and shear stress sensors. A flexible thermal MEMS sensor was produced by using a lift-off process and sacrificial etching of a copper layer on the COP substrate. A metal film working as a flow sensing element was formed on a thin polyimide membrane produced by the sacrificial etching. The fabricated flexible thermal MEMS sensor was used as a flow sensor, and its characteristics were evaluated. The obtained sensor output versus the flow rate curve closely matched the approximate curve derived using King’s law. The rising and falling response times obtained were 0.50 and 0.67 s, respectively.

     

Mucopolysaccharidoses: Cellular Consequences of Glycosaminoglycans Accumulation and Potential Targets

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) constitute a heterogeneous group of lysosomal storage disorders characterized by the lysosomal accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Although lysosomal dysfunction is mainly affected, several cellular organelles such as mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and their related process are also impaired, leading to the activation of pathophysiological cascades. While supplying missing enzymes is the mainstream for the treatment of MPS, including enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), or gene therapy (GT), the use of modulators available to restore affected organelles for recovering cell homeostasis may be a simultaneous approach. This review summarizes the current knowledge about the cellular consequences of the lysosomal GAGs accumulation and discusses the use of potential modulators that can reestablish normal cell function beyond ERT-, HSCT-, or GT-based alternatives.     

SAR stereo imaging algorithm based on Capon spectrum estimation

This letter presents a novel approach for the Synthetic Aperture Radar （SAR） stereo imaging based on the Capon spectrum estimation technique. In order to deal with nonuniform sampling space and lead to super resolution in the elevation direction, Capon approach is used to focus the SAR data on a certain height. Results obtained on simulated data demonstrate the feasibility of the Capon based algorithm. Compared with the classical Fast Fourier Transform （FFT）, the Capon based algorithm shows better resolution quality.
