However, a standardized benchmark for comparing the aerodynamic characteristics of different ducted propeller configurations remains lacking. Including additional ducted propellers can further complicate the flow field. This paper proposes an equivalent design method for ducted propellers based on the momentum theorem and similarity criteria, introducing three equivalent ducted propeller cases. Transient numerical simulations are conducted using the sliding mesh model. The three cases produce comparable thrust while consuming the same power, with the volume of distributed ducted propellers being reduced by over 29% compared to the single ducted propeller. This study investigates the effect of rotational frequency on aerodynamic performance under hovering conditions. While propeller performance demonstrates low sensitivity to variations in rotational frequency, duct performance exhibits high sensitivity. The research further examines how rotational frequency changes the pressure difference between the duct leading edge and trailing edge. Based on a sensitivity analysis of aerodynamic performance, the flow field mechanisms under different rotational consistency are examined for the case with one duct and two propellers. Differences in aerodynamic performance are attributed to the airflow velocity gradient differences at the duct leading edge and the flow separation characteristics on the crossing side. These findings are significant for enhancing the performance of distributed ducted propellers and improving aircraft controllability.展开更多

However, efficient routing is a research challenge due to the highly dynamic nature of these networks. Nevertheless, the availability of connections imposes additional constraint. Our earlier works in the area of efficient dissemination integrates the advantages of middleware operations with muhicast routing to de- sign a framework for distributed routing in vehicular networks. Cloud computing makes use of pools of physical computing resourc- es to meet the requirements of such highly dynamic networks. The proposed solution in this paper applies the principles of cloud computing to our existing framework. The routing protocol works at the network layer for the formation of clouds in specific geo- graphic regions. Simulation results present the effieiency of the model in terms of serviee discovery, download time and the queu- ing delay at the controller nodes.展开更多

Hardware and software itself changes quickly with the time and keeping them updated is a difficult problem for the most of the companies; the problem is more emphasized for the companies having large infrastructure of IT facilities such as data centers which are expensive to be maintained. Many applications run on the company premises which require well prepared staff for successfully maintaining them. With the inception of Cloud Computing many companies have transferred their applications and data into cloud computing based platforms in order to have reduced maintaining cost, easier maintenance in terms of hardware and software, reliable and securely accessible services.

This fast growth is possible thanks to the rapid development of computing systems since its first days in 1947 and the invention of transistor till the present days with high performance and scalable distributed computing systems. This fast growth of computing systems was first observed by Gordon E. Moore in 1965 and postulated as Moore’s Law. For the development of the scalable distributed computing systems, the year 2000 was a very special year. The first GHz speed processor, GB size memory and GB/s data transmission through network were achieved. Interestingly, in the same year the usable Grid computing systems emerged, which gave a strong impulse to a rapid development of distributed computing systems. This paper recognizes these facts that occurred in the year 2000, as the G-phenomena, a millennium cornerstone for the rapid development of scalable distributed systems evolved around the Grid and Cloud computing paradigms.展开更多

文摘Today we witness the exponential growth of scientific research. This fast growth is possible thanks to the rapid development of computing systems since its first days in 1947 and the invention of transistor till the present days with high performance and scalable distributed computing systems. This fast growth of computing systems was first observed by Gordon E. Moore in 1965 and postulated as Moore’s Law. For the development of the scalable distributed computing systems, the year 2000 was a very special year. The first GHz speed processor, GB size memory and GB/s data transmission through network were achieved. Interestingly, in the same year the usable Grid computing systems emerged, which gave a strong impulse to a rapid development of distributed computing systems. This paper recognizes these facts that occurred in the year 2000, as the G-phenomena, a millennium cornerstone for the rapid development of scalable distributed systems evolved around the Grid and Cloud computing paradigms.
