Against the background of building "beautiful Zhejiang and good life", Ningbo City has to optimize the livable environment continuously, integrate natural, humanistic, green, characteristic and comfortable elements into the beautiful countryside construction, thus it is urgent to explore the cultural characteristics and functions of architectural environment in traditional villages. Cultural characteristics and functions of architectural environment in traditional villages of Ningbo should be more systematic, legalized, and scientific. This paper reviewed concepts and cultural connotations of traditional villages, and integrated cultural characteristics and functions of regional architectural environment in traditional villages of Ningbo, and provided references for theoretic researches on the formation of characteristic regional architectural cultures in traditional villages of Ningbo.展开更多

Each forwarding plane aggregates a fixed amount of computing, memory, and network interface resources to forward packets. Unfortunately, the tight coupling of packet-processing tasks with network interfaces has severely restricted service innovation and hardware upgrade. In this context, we explore the insightful prospect of functional separation in forwarding plane to propose a next-generation router architecture, which, if realized, can provide promises both for various packet-processing tasks and for flexible deployment while solving concerns related to the above problems. Thus, we put forward an alternative construction in which functional resources within a forwarding plane are disaggregated. A forwarding plane is instead separated into two planes: software data plane(SDP) and flow switching plane(FSP), and each plane can be viewed as a collection of "building blocks". SDP is responsible for packet-processing tasks without its expansibility restricted with the amount and kinds of network interfaces. FSP is in charge of packet receiving/transmitting tasks and can incrementally add switching elements, such as general switches, or even specialized switches, to provide network interfaces for SDP. Besides, our proposed router architecture uses network fabrics to achievethe best connectivity among building blocks,which can support for network topology reconfiguration within one device.At last,we make an experiment on our platform in terms of bandwidth utilization rate,configuration delay,system throughput and execution time.展开更多

This paper firstly introduces the development of satellite communications, mobile communications and the global space-terrestrial integrated network. We then propose the functional architecture and network architecture for the integration of satellite communications and terrestrial mobile communications based on 5 G core networks. Finally, in order to support the network of the future, four key technologies are presented, a space-terrestrial integrated air interface design, a multi-band space-terrestrial integrated transmission waveform design, space-terrestrial integrated switching and routing technology, along with spectrum sharing and interference coordination technology, all necessary for the development of space-terrestrial integrated networks.展开更多

Designing accelerators for specific applications or algorithms is considered to be one of the most promising approaches to improving energy-efficiency. However, most current design methods for accelerators are dedicated for certain applications or algorithms, which greatly constrains their applicability. In this paper, we propose a novel general-purpose many-accelerator architecture. Our contributions are two-fold. Firstly, we propose to cluster dataflow graphs （DFGs） of hotspot basic blocks （BBs） in applications. The DFG clusters are then used for accelerators design. This is because a DFC is the largest program unit which is not specific to a certain application. We analyze 17 benchmarks in SPEC CPU 2006, acquire over 300 DFGs hotspots by using LLVM compiler tool, and divide them into 15 clusters based on graph similarity. Secondly, we introduce a function instruction set architecture （FISC） and illustrate how DFG accelerators can be integrated with a processor core and how they can be used by applications. Our results show that the proposed DFG clustering and FISC design can speed up SPEC benchmarks 6.2X on average.展开更多
