A Dynamic Information Transfer and Feedback Model for Reuse-oriented Redesign of Used Mechanical Equipment

The intricate coupling relationship among the used parts make the reuse-oriented redesign process very complex, leading to the incompatible optimization between the used parts and used mechanical equipment. To this end, a dynamic information transfer and feedback method is proposed. In this method, the structure coupling model is established to characterize the relationship of parts. Remanufacturing cost, energy consumption and material consumption are taken as the redesign objectives. In accordance with these objectives and its constraints, a dynamic information transfer and feedback model (DITF) is adopted to achieve collaborative optimization between used mechanical equipment and used parts. An adaptive Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization (A-TLBO) algorithm is used to solve this model. Finally, a case in point is that a used machine tool (model C6132) is adopted to validate feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Patient information needs in upper gastrointestinal cancer: what patients and their families want to know.

The treatment of upper gastrointestinal cancer (UGIC) patients is complex. Patients are often elderly, comorbid as well as nutritionally depleted and treatment involves multimodality therapy incorporating chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery. The pre-treatment information requirements of UGIC patients are not clear but crucially important in ensuring they complete treatment successfully. A systematic review of the English language literature was performed to determine the specific information needs of patients with UGIC. Following abstract review and comprehensive analysis six articles were included. UGIC patients nominated information regarding post-operative recovery, quality of life, expected survival, management of post-operative symptoms and coping strategies for insurance and financial issues, relationships and family as being most important to them. Patients' families nominated information on the effects of diagnosis on patient well-being over the ensuing months and detailed information on available support services as being most important. One-on-one consultations with senior medical staff were the preferred method of information transfer followed by web-based information services. For effective treatment of UGIC patients, physicians and surgeons must address issues pertaining to quality of life, finance and relationships and may require specific training, or administrative support, in these areas.

Optimizing the Energy and Throughput of a Water-Quality Monitoring System.

This work presents a new approach to the maximization of energy and throughput in a wireless sensor network (WSN), with the intention of applying the approach to water-quality monitoring. Water-quality monitoring using WSN technology has become an interesting research area. Energy scarcity is a critical issue that plagues the widespread deployment of WSN systems. Different power supplies, harvesting energy from sustainable sources, have been explored. However, when energy-efficient models are not put in place, energy harvesting based WSN systems may experience an unstable energy supply, resulting in an interruption in communication, and low system throughput. To alleviate these problems, this paper presents the joint maximization of the energy harvested by sensor nodes and their information-transmission rate using a sum-throughput technique. A wireless information and power transfer (WIPT) method is considered by harvesting energy from dedicated radio frequency sources. Due to the doubly near–far condition that confronts WIPT systems, a new WIPT system is proposed to improve the fairness of resource utilization in the network. Numerical simulation results are presented to validate the mathematical formulations for the optimization problem, which maximize the energy harvested and the overall throughput rate. Defining the performance metrics of achievable throughput and fairness in resource sharing, the proposed WIPT system outperforms an existing state-of-the-art WIPT system, with the comparison based on numerical simulations of both systems. The improved energy efficiency of the proposed WIPT system contributes to addressing the problem of energy scarcity.

Factors Driving Aquaculture Technology Adoption

AbstractTechnology adoption has played a key role in the global development and increase in agricultural productivity. However, the decision to adopt a new technology on farms is complex. While the factors that drive the adoption of new technologies have been well studied in agriculture, less attention has been paid to drivers of technology adoption in aquaculture. Aquacultural technologies have developed and advanced rapidly in recent decades, but not all technologies have been adopted readily by farmers. This review paper summarizes some of the critical factors that influence aquaculture technology adoption decisions such as: (1) method of information transfer, (2) characteristics of the technology, (3) farm characteristics, (4) economic factors, and (5) sociodemographic and institutional factors. Fish farmers have tended to adopt technologies that are perceived to be more advantageous than others in terms of productivity, cost efficiency, and ease of management. Price of aquaculture products and profit expectations from business ventures were key economic factors influencing adoption decisions. Given the wide array of species, production practices, and global nature of aquaculture, the intensity and the extent of adoption of technologies depend on the nature of the industry in which they are adopted and their economic, social, political, and regulatory environments.

Reception modeling of sphere-to-sphere molecular communication via diffusion

As a widely accepted information transfer method in the nanonetworking domain, molecular communication via diffusion (MCvD) presents many advantages as well as challenges. In order to assess the capabilities and restrictions of MCvD, a thorough understanding of the reception process through the first passage time distribution holds utmost importance. As the network setup becomes more realistic, analytical derivations become increasingly difficult. Using statistical methods on empirical data is a remedy to this challenge. In this paper, we propose two novel heavy-tail distributions, which are well-equipped to model the first passage time distribution for a reflective sphere transmitter and a fully absorbing sphere receiver pair. We present their modeling power using the Kolmogorov–Smirnov goodness of fit test and how the modeling performance behaves under diverse deployment parameters. We also discuss the probability of molecule absorption, signal-to-interference ratio, and the advantages of using a reflective sphere transmitter.

Maximum Likelihood Detection With Ligand Receptors for Diffusion-Based Molecular Communications in Internet of Bio-Nano Things.

Molecular Communication (MC) is a bio-inspired communication technique that uses molecules as a method of information transfer among nanoscale devices. MC receiver is an essential component having profound impact on the communication system performance. However, the interaction of the receiver with information bearing molecules has been usually oversimplified in modeling the reception process and developing signal detection techniques. In this paper, we focus on the signal detection problem of MC receivers employing receptor molecules to infer the transmitted messages encoded into the concentration of molecules, i.e., ligands. Exploiting the observable characteristics of ligand-receptor binding reaction, we first introduce a Maximum Likelihood (ML) detection method based on instantaneous receptor occupation ratio, as aligned with the current MC literature. Then, we propose a novel ML detection technique, which exploits the amount of time the receptors stay unbound in an observation time window. A comprehensive analysis is carried out to compare the performance of the detectors in terms of bit error probability. In evaluating the detection performance, emphasis is given to the receptor saturation problem resulting from the accumulation of messenger molecules at the receiver as a consequence of intersymbol interference. The results reveal that detection based on receptor unbound time is quite reliable even in saturation, whereas the reliability of detection based on receptor occupation ratio substantially decreases as the receiver gets saturated. Finally, we also discuss the potential methods of implementing the detectors.

Information Transfer and the Hospital Discharge Summary: National Primary Care Provider Perspectives of Challenges and Opportunities.

The hospital discharge summary (HDS) serves as a critical method of patient information transfer between hospitalist and primary care provider (PCP). This study was designed to increase our understanding of PCP preferences for, and perceived deficiencies in, the discharge summary. We designed a mail survey that was sent to a random sample of 800 American Academy of Family Physicians members nationally. The survey response rate was 59%. We analyzed the availability of summaries at hospital followup, whether all desired information was contained in the summary and whether certain specific items were completed. Provider subgroup analysis was performed. The strongest predictor of discharge summary availability at posthospital followup is direct access to inpatient data. Respondents (27.5%) had a summary available 0% to 40% of the time, 41.4% noted availability 41% to 80% of the time and 31.1% >80% of the time; if a provider had access to inpatient data they tended to have a discharge summary available to them (P < .0001). Providers also described significant content deficits: 26.5% of providers noted the summary contained all information needed 0% to 40% of the time, 48.5% of providers noted this 41% to 80% of the time and only 25% >80% of the time. Specific summary items considered "very important" by providers included medication list (94% of respondents), diagnosis list (89%), and treatment provided (87%). Opportunities remain in timely delivery of a complete HDS to the PCP. Further multifaceted practice redesign should be directed at optimizing this critical information transfer tool, potentially encompassing electronic medical record utilization and specific training for clinicians preparing summaries. Initial efforts should focus on ensuring availability of a complete summary (containing items deemed important by PCPs including medication list, diagnosis list, and treatment provided) at the posthospital follow-up visit.

The aquatic nanofoundation of human life and health

With the development of computer information technologies, humankind has begun to study actively the nanoworld of water as the evolutionary foundation of the “living matter” of the planet (V.I. Vernadsky). Water and water solutions are a continuously reproduced, inexhaustible, and essential natural condition of existence. It is hydrogen bonds that ensure the formation of DNA double helixes as the evolutionarily fixed method of biological information transfer, which largely determines the rate and inherited parameters of the development of the living organism. The author of this article is of the opinion that water as the primary nanostructure of the existence of nature is the foundation of human life and health. Special attention is paid to the contribution of scientists from the Russian Academy of Sciences to the above topic.

An efficient broadcast-based information transfer method based on location data over MANET

In a disaster situation, mobile ad hoc networks can be considered as one of the communication methods when the communication infrastructure is unavailable. Under these circumstances, the number of redundant packets consuming power should be controlled to save battery power and prolong the life of the network. In this paper, we propose an efficient broadcast-based information transfer method using location data to reduce the redundant packets while achieving high data reachability.

A proposal on location data supplementing information transfer method over MANET

Networks that are immune to disasters or similar occurrences are much in demand these days. As one of the communication options in the event of a disaster, MANET (Mobile Ad hoc Network) has been evaluated. MANET has two kinds of route control protocols: topology-based and location-aided protocols. We focus on the location-aided protocol and propose a method enabling nodes that cannot obtain location data to participate in MANET. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method and show its effectiveness.

Root Cause Diagnosis of Plant-Wide Oscillations Based on Information Transfer in the Frequency Domain

Plant-wide oscillations generated in a single unit can negatively affect the overall control performance of the process; thus, it is necessary to detect them and diagnose their root cause. However, the interference of noise and the need for oscillation propagation routes pose more challenges for process engineers. In this paper, the concept spectral transfer entropy is proposed and its connection to the spectral Granger causality is derived. Moreover, an information transfer method incorporating spectral envelope algorithm and spectral transfer entropy is applied to provide new diagnostic guidance, whose feasibility and effectiveness have been demonstrated by both simulated and industrial case studies. Compared with current methods, the new procedure enjoys the following advantages: (a) performing oscillation detection and diagnosis within a targeted frequency range and mitigating the effects of measurement noise outside the bandwidth; (b) provides an nominal causal map reflecting the oscillation propagat...

Development of simulation system for large H-beam hot rolling based on ABAQUS

H-beam is a kind of efficient economic cross-section steel with wide flange and thin web. Due to the superior cross-section properties and reasonable strength-to-weight ratio benefiting from its especial shape, H-beam has been widely used in the industry and building trade. However, since the hot rolling of large H-beam is a highly nonlinear plastic deformation process which happens under the high temperature and high pressure, the real-time detection of internal information for H-beam and deformable roller in the rolling process is difficult to be realized. The finite element simulation is an effective measure to demonstrate the internal information during the whole hot rolling process. However, the drastic plastic deformation involved in the transient rolling process may lead to meshing distortion in simulation which would result into inaccurate simulation results. In this paper, the finite element simulation system for large H-beam hot rolling is developed based on ABAQUS and thermal coupled elastic-plastic finite element method by customizing applications and embedding re-meshing algorithm and subroutines. Modeling of pre-processing and extracting simulation results of post-processing can be automatically achieved through the simulation system. The re-meshing algorithm and the information transfer method of the clearance between two passes are synthetically used to ensure the continuous simulation of multi-pass hot rolling process and improve the accuracy of simulation results. The validity of the simulation system developed in this paper is verified through measuring the temperature field in hot rolling process of HN900x300 using a thermal infrared imager. The results show that the simulation results of the system are coincident with the measured results with errors below 6 %.

Maximally close to the real terms, practical classes and extracurricular work of students promote their motivation and personal interest to the independent deep study of topographical anatomy and operative surgery.

Image Transmission Based on QC-LDPC Codes with Simple Recursive Encoding Form

Low encoding delay and complexity is very important for image transmission. This paper proposes a novel image transmission scheme with low encoding complexity. The proposed scheme is based on quasi-cyclic low density parity check (QC-LDPC) codes with a simple recursive encoding form (SREF QC-LDPC code) which results in low encoding complexity and delay. Constructing the SREF QC-LDPC codes in this scheme composes of two main steps, construction of the base matrix and the exponent matrix. We combine the differential evolution and protograph extrinsic information transfer (PEXIT) method to optimize the base matrix of QC-LDPC code. Consequently, the exponent matrix and the parity check matrix are constructed. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme based on SREF QC-LDPC code can provide a good tradeoff between the performance and complexity.

Construction of quasi‐cyclic low‐density parity‐check codes with low encoding complexity

SUMMARYLow encoding complexity is very important for quasi‐cyclic low‐density parity‐check (QC‐LDPC) codes used in wireless communication systems. In this paper, a new scheme is presented to construct QC‐LDPC codes with low encoding complexity. This scheme is called two‐stage particle swarm optimization (TS‐PSO) algorithm, in which both the threshold and girth distribution of QC‐LDPC codes are considered. The proposed scheme is composed of two stages. In the first stage, we construct a binary base matrix of QC‐LDPC code with the best threshold. The matrix is constructed by combining a binary PSO algorithm and the protograph extrinsic information transfer (PEXIT) method. In the second stage, we search an exponent matrix of the QC‐LDPC code with the best girth distribution. This exponent matrix is based on the base matrix obtained in the first stage. Consequently, the parity‐check matrix of the QC‐LDPC code with the best threshold and best girth distribution are constructed. Furthermore, bit error rate performances are compared for the QC‐LDPC codes constructed by proposed scheme, the QC‐LDPC code in 802.16e standard, and the QC‐LDPC code in Tam's study. Simulation results show that the QC‐LDPC codes proposed in this study are superior to both the 802.16e code and the Tam code on the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and Rayleigh channels. Moreover, proposed scheme is easily implemented, and is flexible and effective for constructing QC‐LDPC codes with low encoding complexity. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley &amp; Sons, Ltd.
