Given a set S of sites and a set O of weighted objects, an optimal location query finds the location(s) where introducing a new site maximizes the total weight of the objects that are closer to the new site than to any other site. With such a query, for instance, a franchise corporation (e.g., McDonald’s) can find a location to open a new store such that the number of potential store customers (i.e., people living close to the store) is maximized. Optimal location queries are computationally complex to compute and require efficient solutions that scale with large datasets. Previously, two specific approaches have been proposed for efficient computation of optimal location queries. However, they both assume p-norm distance (namely, L1 and L2/Euclidean); hence, they are not applicable where sites and objects are located on spatial networks. In this article, we focus on optimal network location (ONL) queries, i.e., optimal location queries in which objects and sites reside on a spatial network. We introduce two complementary approaches, namely EONL (short for Expansion-based ONL) and BONL (short for Bound-based ONL), which enable efficient computation of ONL queries with datasets of uniform and skewed distributions, respectively. Moreover, with an extensive experimental study we verify and compare the efficiency of our proposed approaches with real world datasets, and we demonstrate the importance of considering network distance (rather than p-norm distance) with ONL queries. 相似文献

The 1, 2-bis(quinoline-2-Carboxamido)-4-chlorobenzene (H2Clbqb) was used as an excellent ionophore in the construction of a cadmium(II)-selective PVC-based membrane sensor. The influences of membrane compositions on the potentiometric response of the electrodes have been found to substantially improve the performance characteristics. The best performance was obtained with a membrane composition of (H2Clbqb) (5%): PVC (31%): DBP (61%): NaTPB (3%). The sensor shows a Nernestian response for cadmium ions over a wide concentration range (1.0times106 to 1.0 times 10-1 mol.L-1) with slope of 30.3 plusmn0.4 mV decade1. The limit of detection was 8.0 times10-7 mol.L-1. It illustrates a relatively fast response time in the whole concentration range (< 10 s) and it can be used for at least 8 weeks without any divergence in potential. The electrode can be used in the pH range from 2.4 to 9.0. The selectivity coefficient of some alkali, alkaline earth, transition and heavy metal ions towards Cd2+ion have been determined. The results show proposed Cd sensor is selective over a number of mono, bi- and trivalent cations such as Pb2+, Fe3+, Ni2+, K+, and Mg2+. The analytical usefulness of the proposed electrode has been evaluated by its application in the determination of cadmium in real samples. It was successfully applied for the direct determination of Cd2+ in standard and real sample solutions. 相似文献

Food- and waterborne viruses, such as human norovirus, hepatitis A virus, hepatitis E virus, rotaviruses, astroviruses, adenoviruses, and enteroviruses, are major contributors to all foodborne illnesses. Their small size, structure, and ability to clump and attach to inanimate surfaces make viruses challenging to reduce or eliminate, especially in the presence of inorganic or organic soils. Besides traditional wet and dry methods of disinfection using chemicals and heat, emerging physical nonthermal decontamination techniques (irradiation, ultraviolet, pulsed light, high hydrostatic pressure, cold atmospheric plasma, and pulsed electric field), novel virucidal surfaces, and bioactive compounds are examined for their potential to inactivate viruses on the surfaces of foods or food contact surfaces (tools, equipment, hands, etc.). Every disinfection technique is discussed based on its efficiency against viruses, specific advantages and disadvantages, and limitations. Structure, genomic organization, and molecular biology of different virus strains are reviewed, as they are key in determining these techniques effectiveness in controlling all or specific foodborne viruses. Selecting suitable viral decontamination techniques requires that their antiviral mechanism of action and ability to reduce virus infectivity must be taken into consideration. Furthermore, details about critical treatments parameters essential to control foodborne viruses in a food production environment are discussed, as they are also determinative in defining best disinfection and hygiene practices preventing viral infection after consuming a food product. 相似文献

The design of expectation-maximisation (EM)-based turbo receivers for low-density parity-check-coded multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with the presence of carrier-frequency offset (CFO) is studied. First, starting from the maximum-likelihood principle, a novel EM-based CFO estimator for MIMO-OFDM systems is devised. This estimator iteratively provides the CFO estimate with the aid of pilot symbols. It is also capable of accommodating any space-time-coded-OFDM transmission. Then this CFO estimator is incorporated into the initialisation step of the turbo receiver. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the receiver design in combating CFO over unknown frequency-selective fading channels. 相似文献

To cover a wide range of the flow regimes, a new relaxation time formulation by considering the rarefaction effect and the effective dynamic viscosity has been obtained. By using the modified lattice Boltzmann method (LBM), pressure driven flow through micro and nano channels has been modeled for wide range of Knudsen number, Kn, covering the slip, transition and to some extent the free molecular regimes. The results agree very well with existing empirical and numerical data. The velocity profile was predicted as well as the volumetric flow rate and for the first time, the well known Knudsen minimum effect has been captured about Kn = 1. 相似文献

A new selective Nd(III) sensor has been made by using N,N′-bis(quinoline-2-carboxamido)-4,5-dimethylbenzene (H2L4) as a suitable ionophore. The sensor exhibits Nernstian response to Nd(III) ions in the concentration range of 5.0 × 10− 6 to 1.0 × 10− 2 M. It displays a Nernstian slope of 19.5 ± 0.4 mV/decade in the pH range of 2.9-9.2. The proposed sensor also exhibits a fast response time of < l0 s. The detection limit of the proposed sensor is 4.8 × 10− 6 M, and it can be used over a period of 10 weeks without significant changes in its response. Furthermore, the electrode showed high selectivity toward Nd(III) ion respect to all other lanthanide ions tested. The practical utility of the sensor was demonstrated by using it as an indicator electrode in the potentiometric determination of Nd(III) ions in certified reference material and spiked water samples. 相似文献

We propose in this paper optimized designs for LDPC codes which are able to work close to the theoretical bounds for the half duplex relay channel using the decode and forward strategy originally proposed by Cover and El Gamal. The challenge is that we have to find two codes operating at different rates and at different SNR?s: one for source-destination and the other for relay-destination transmission. We use density evolution together with Gaussian approximation for the design of the proposed irregular LDPC codes. Simulation results show that our proposed LDPC enable to work within less than 1.0 dB from the theoretical limit capacities under different channel conditions. 相似文献

Solution studies showed the strong interaction of [5-(dimethylamino) naphthalene-1-sulfonyl 4-phenylsemicarbazide] (NSP) with Er(III) ions. NSP was used as a sensing material during construction of carbon paste Er(III) sensors. The electrodes were modified with 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, [bmim]BF4, as room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT). Potentiometric sensors constructed with [bmim]BF4 and MWCNTs show better sensitivity, selectivity, response time, and response stability compared to Er(III) carbon paste sensors. The best performance for the modified sensor was obtained with an electrode composition of 20% [bmim]BF4, 20% NSP, 45% graphite powder and 15% MWCNT. This particular sensor formulation exhibits a Nernstian response (19.8 ± 0.3 mV decade−1) toward Er(III) ions in the range of 1.0 × 10−7 to 1.0 × 10−1 mol L−1 with a detection limit of 5.0 × 10−8 mol L−1. The proposed modified Er(III) sensor can be used over the pH range from 3.5 to 9.0. 相似文献

In this study a new hafnium selective sensor was fabricated from polyvinylchloride (PVC) matrix membrane containing neutral carrier N,N'-bis(alpha-methyl-salicylidene)-dipropylenetriamine (Mesaldpt) as a new ionophore, sodium tetraphenyl borate (NaTPB) as anionic discriminator and dioctyl phthalate (DOP) as plasticizing solvent mediator in tetrahydrofuran solvent. The electrode exhibits Nernstian response for Hf(4+) (Hafnium(IV)) over a wide concentration range (2.0 x 10(-7) to 1.0 x 10(-1)M) with the determination coefficient of 0.9966 and slope of 15.1+/-0.1 mVdecades(-1). The limit of detection is 1.9 x 10(-7)M. The electrode has a fast response time of 18s and a working pH range of 4-8. The proposed membrane shows excellent discriminating ability towards Hf(4+) ion with regard to several alkali, alkaline earth transition and heavy metal ions. It can be used over a period of 1.5 months with good reproducibility. It is successfully applied for direct determination of Hf(4+) in solutions by standard addition method for real sample analysis. 相似文献
