However, the interval of consecutive goods caused by dispensers on conveyor can not be eliminated by DVWA, which limits a further improvement of picking efficiency. In order to solve this problem, a compressible virtual window algorithm (CVWA) is presented. It not only inherits the merit of DVWA but also compresses the length of virtual containers without congestion of order accumulation by advancing the beginning time of order picking and reasonably coordinating the pace of order accumulation. The simulation result proves that the picking efficiency of automated sorting system is greatly improved by CVWA.展开更多

The architecture and running mechanism of HSCF are discussed after giving a comparison with other on-line backup tecbnology. HSCF, based on a file system filter driver, protects computer data and ensures their integrity and consistency with following three steps: access to open files, synchronization and copy on-write. Its strategies for improving system performance are analyzed including priority setting, incremental snapshot and load balance. HSCF is a new kind of snapshot technology to solve the data integrity and consistency problem in online backup, which is different from other storage-level snapshot and Open File Solution.展开更多

A multi-type ant system(MTAS) algorithm hybridized with the ant colony system(ACS)and the max-min ant system(MMAS) algorithms is proposed. This combination absorbs the merits of the two algorithms in solutions construction and optimization separately. In order to improve the efficiency of the insertion procedure, a nearest neighbor selection(NNS) mechanism, an insertion local search procedure and a local optimization procedure are specified in detail. And in order to find a balance between good scouting performance and fast convergence rate, an adaptive pheromone updating strategy is proposed in the MTAS. Computational results confirm the MTAS algorithm's good performance with all these strategies on classic vehicle routing problem with time windows(VRPTW) benchmark instances and the TDVRPTW instances, and some better results especially for the number of vehicles and travel times of the best solutions are obtained in comparison with the previous research.展开更多

Firstly, the proper sampling period is taken and the orbital points of periodic motion are obtained through Poincar6 mapping. Secondly, according to the method of symbolic dynamics of one-dimensional discrete mapping, the symbolic sequence describing the periodic orbit is obtained. Finally, based on the symbolic sequence, the corresponding model of minimal finite automation is constructed and the entropy is obtained by calculating the maximal eigenvalue of Stefan matrix. The results show that the orbits in periodic windows can be strictly marked by using the method of symbolic dynamics, thus a foundation for control of switching between target orbits is provided.展开更多

Considering the imaging performance, flat surfaces are traditionally used in the design of optical windows. For aircrafts operating at high speeds, the optical windows should be relatively aerodynamic, but a flat optical window may introduce unacceptably high drag to the airframes. The linear scanning infrared sensors used in aircrafts with, respectively, a flat window, a spherical window and a toric window in front of the aircraft sensors are designed and compared. Simulation results show that the optical design using a toric surface has the integrated advantages of field of regard, aerodynamic drag, narcissus effect, and imaging performance, so the optical window with a toric surface is demonstrated to be suited for this application.展开更多

The system makes use of the same setup as has been used in previous studies of SCFD, but unlike these previous systems, the new system uses water-filling to maximize the spectral efficiency of the uplink channel. The concept of a free window is introduced to the duplex model for measuring, intuitively, the effective bandwidth of the bi-directional communication. The capacity gain is calculated and numerical results show the advantage of the proposed system over that of conventional TDD.展开更多
