Data hiding technique solves the problem to some extent, but still, some shortcomings remain for researching. To improve the capability of hiding huge data file in disk with high efficiency. In this paper, we propose a novel approach called CryptFS, which is achieved by utilizing the file access mechanism and modifying the cluster chain structure to hide data. CryptFS can quickly hide data file with G bytes size in less than 0.1s. The time used for hiding and recovering data is irrelevant to the size of data file, and the reliability of the hidden file is high, which will not be overlaid by new created file and disk defragment.展开更多

The metamorphosis of the human data storage and analysis from analogue through the jaguars-loom mainframe computer to the present modern high power processing computers with sextillion bytes storage capacity has prompted discussion of Big Data concept as a tool in managing hitherto all human challenges of complex human system multiplier effects. The supply chain management (SCM) that deals with spatial service delivery that must be safe, efficient, reliable, cheap, transparent, and foreseeable to meet customers’ needs cannot but employ bid data tools in its operation. This study employs secondary data online to review the importance of big data in supply chain management and the levels of adoption in Nigeria. The study revealed that the application of big data tools in SCM and other industrial sectors is synonymous to human and national development. It is therefore recommended that both private and governmental bodies should key into e-transactions for easy data assemblage and analysis for profitable forecasting and policy formation.展开更多

We will discuss about one of the most important issues of stochastic processes, named Markov chains. We would reconstruct the collected imperfect data as a Markov chain and obtain an algorithm for finding maximum likelihood estimate of transition matrix. This approach is known as EM algorithm, which includes main optimum advantages among other approaches, and consists of two phases: phase (maximization of target function). Continue the phase E and M to achieve the sequence convergence of matrix. Its limit is the optimal estimator. This algorithm, in contrast with other optimum algorithms which could be used for this purpose, is practicable in maximum likelihood estimate, and unlike to the methods which involve mathematical, is executable by computer. At the end we will survey the theoretical outcomes with numerical computation by using R software.展开更多

There are a number of mathematical approaches developed to handle this type of data. The purpose of the research was to estimate the three parameters of the Frechet distribution via the frequentist Maximum Likelihood and the Bayesian Estimators. In this paper, the maximum likelihood method (MLE) is not available of the three parameters in the closed forms;therefore, it was solved by the numerical methods. Similarly, the Bayesian estimators are implemented using Jeffreys and gamma priors with two loss functions, which are: squared error loss function and Linear Exponential Loss Function (LINEX). The parameters of the Frechet distribution via Bayesian cannot be obtained analytically and therefore Markov Chain Monte Carlo is used, where the full conditional distribution for the three parameters is obtained via Metropolis-Hastings algorithm. Comparisons of the estimators are obtained using Mean Square Errors (MSE) to determine the best estimator of the three parameters of the Frechet distribution. The results show that the Bayesian estimation under Linear Exponential Loss Function based on Type-I censored data is a better estimator for all the parameter estimates when the value of the loss parameter is positive.展开更多

To compensate the lost packet, a data packet dropout compensator is established. Thus a more realistic model for such NCSs is presented. Sufficient conditions for the stabilization of the new resulting system are derived in the form of linear matrix inequalities （LMIs）.

In this paper, we provide an empirical study of the topology of smartphone supply chain network. The supply chain network is constructed using open online data. Our experimental results show that the smartphone supply chain network has small-world feature with scale-free degree distribution, in which a few high degree nodes play a key role in the function and can effectively reduce the communication cost. We also detect the community structure to find the basic functional unit. It shows that information communication between nodes is crucial to improve the resource utilization. We should pay attention to the global resource configuration for such electronic production management.展开更多
