Fuzzy metagraphs describe the relationships between sets of fuzzy elements but not single fuzzy element and offer some distinct advantages both for visualization of systems, as well as for formal analysis of system structure. In rule based system, a fuzzy metagraph is a unity of the knowledge base and the reasoning engine. Based on the closure of the adjacency matrix of fuzzy metagraphs, this paper presented an optimized inferential mechanism working mainly by an off line approach. It can greatly increase the efficiency of inference. Finally, it was applied in a daignostic expert system and satisfactory results were obtained.展开更多

Let C be an (N,w + 1,q)-code and C* an (w + 1)-color graph for C. If a graph G is a subgraph of C* and consists of w +1 edges with different colors, then G is called a (w +1)-pattern of C*. In this paper, we proved that C is a w-IPP code if and only if there exists at most one vertex with color degree more than 1 in any (w + 1)-pattern of C*.展开更多

The detailed adsorption behaviors of single-stranded DNA( ssDNA) and double-stranded DNA( dsDNA) on the surface of graphene were discussed. The π-π stacking would contribute to the maximum average loading of ssDNA( 167 segments) with the adsorption potential distribution at the range of-6. 0 eV to-2. 1 eV,higher than that of dsDNA( 30 segments) with the adsorption energy distribution ranging from-3. 0 eV to- 0. 2 eV. Gradually shielding the base of ssDNA using hydrogen atom and gradually changing ssDNA into dsDNA through base-pairing were performed to further detect the detailed interaction between DNA and graphene. E B for * CGC,G* GC,GC* C,and GCG* is-15. 130,-15. 276,-15. 137,and- 15. 271 eV,respectively. E B for GCGC-CGCG / graphene,GCGC-CGC / graphene,GCGC-CG / graphene,GCGC-C / graphene,and GCGC / graphene is-14. 941,-14. 700,-14. 204,-15. 561,and- 15. 810 eV,respectively. DOS of the adsorbed ssDNA down shifted 1. 885 eV,which becomes more stable and less reactive than the other cases. Further,oxidation reaction shows that graphene protects ssDNA from breaking by active oxide. And stable adsorption,protection from destroying,and undamaged desorption insure the possibility of graphene to deliver or hybrid DNA for novel and creative use.展开更多

Considering the power cost incurred by the computation, communication and migration of software components, a power consumption model of component assignments between a mobile device and a server is set up. Also, the mobility of components and the mobility relationships between components are taken into account in software allocation. By using network flow theory, the optimization problem of power conservation is transformed into the optimal bipartition problem of a flow network which can be partitioned by the max-flow rain-cut algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can save si^nificantlv more energy than existing algorithms.展开更多
